Poor thing. Look after yourself, and get well soon.
Grognard:
Saturday was a bitch and I've spent Sunday with what feels like a bowling ball sitting on my chest.
Intermittent headaches.
awoke at 0300 in breaking fever sweat.
but my breathing is good and clear.
it really is weird.
22.5 hours a day, I feel fine.
it's just those 90 minutes that fuk up my day.
Is it cold in here?:
Do you want a pulse oximeter? If those are still hard to get hold of you can have mine. PM me an address.
Grognard:
thank you.
but I've got two nurses in the family, and as of Monday, there's now 3 pulse oximeters at my house.
I'm feeling better today, but
Monday, Tue, Wed. were all ass-kickers.
scariest is getting caught by a coughing fit, which feels like my lungs want to detach.
then seeing the pulse oximeters showing 120+ bpm with O2 saturation of only 72.
I'm not sure what got prescribed, but it was a Major League cough suppressant with something for pain.
... and I've had to stay right exactly on it: a dose every four hours.
today is better. general achiness and a light cough (post nasal drainage... my eternal enemy)
chest only feels like I got kicked by horse wearing cleats.
but I'm lucky. I've got a family full of Medical pros who are able to treat me. No hospital for me, hopefully.
