Health Update

I guess I should do an update on my health, since I rambled on before about it!

I am feeling much better. Since my last blog about being sick, I have been to the Dr. 2 more times. The first time I wasn't doing much better, so guess what I got, another shot!!

When I was a kid I think our pediatrician gave us a shot for EVERYTHING I hated needles, and I hated the Dr! Then I became a "grown up" and it seems like I never got a shot (except when I was exposed to Hepatitis). So I had no idea that Dr.s were into giving shots again.:(

I also had to go in and get some chest x-rays, they came back all clear, yeah!

I still take 2 inhalers and I am on some decongestants for my stuffy head. I haven't been able to get my head cleared, I guess you could say that I am sick in the head, but we already knew that!!

He also put me on a med for high blood pressure. Paul also went back to the Dr. and he was also put on a high blood pressure med and a med. for his migraines. We hope that between the 2 meds, that they will go away, or at least be fewer. I don't know how he copes with them, I have had a migraine once, it was probably more like a really bad headache, and I couldn't function.

I go back to the Dr. in a month, and need to get some lab work done before then, but I am in the clear now, and trying to get back to normal life, whatever that is.

I have a new admiration for people who have to live with chronic illnesses. I it was hard to do all the daily things that need to be done and have the energy for family and callings and the rest of life.
