Note: It seems my memory was playing tricks on me. Let try this again.
I’ve been out of touch for several weeks due to a series of unfortunate events. On December 23, 2023 I went to the Emergency Room – via an ambulance -because I was having difficulty breathing. Turns out it was pneumonia – not good, especially with Christmas coming. I was given some pretty good scripts went home and enjoyed the holidays.
I started to feel much better. But then I was once again having difficulty breathing. It was sort of like a prolonged asthma attack. On February 12th, I sent an email to my Doctor’s nurse and she called me right back.
Here’s the funny part. I was at the hospital in the middle of an yoga session when she called. She said that I really ought to go the ER. So I finished yoga and walked down to the ER. X-rays and lab test once again confirmed that pneumonia was back in full force. We spent nearly 8 hours in the ER going through multiple rounds of IV antibiotics before going home with a script for more antibiotics.
Now it gets nasty. On February 18th, I woke up with severe abdominal pain. Back to the ER. This time I was admitted. I stayed until early afternoon on the 19th and went home feeling pretty good. Then the diarrhea started. Back to the ER on the 20th. Was diagnosed with C. Diff. It’s not fun – trust me on that. I self-quarantined for two weeks staying in the family room and the small bedroom by the family room.
But now I am happy to say that I’m feeling pretty good though I get tired earlier than I like.
So, like I said, been out of commission for a bit.
