I need prayers, my friends.
I have been sick for several weeks, and did not go to the doctor until today.I am as stubborn as can be, and try like heck to treat myself with naturals and old fashioned remedies. I got a good scare at 4:30 this morning. I woke up to one heck of a bad coughing spell that lasted a good 20 minutes non-stop and expelled a lot of gook out of my lungs. To top it off, my husband said I gurgled in my sleep, and quit breathing for a minute. I called the doctor's office as soon as they opened this morning, and they squeezed me in this afternoon.
I have pneumonia, and the lower right section of my right lung has collapsed. I went to the doctor's office, and then to the hospital for x-rays of my chest. I have to go back to the doctor on Friday morning at 10am CST. I am limited as to what medicines I can take, as I have severe allergies to so many medicines. I am currently on Cipro 1,000mg a day.I do get a reaction to Cipro, but not a severe one, so I hope I will be OK.
I am feverish, as weak as a newborn kitten, and just generally feel awful. My chest really hurts, especially the lower right area where the lower part of the lung is not working.
I have COPD, the Bronchitis/Allergic Asthma type. I was diagnosed 11 years ago with the COPD, and have been doing really good up to now. I have always had lung problems. All through my childhood I would get pneumonia and bronchitis. I was a premie, just 3 pounds and 12 inches long when I was born. I guess my lungs were never totally right to begin with, but I have made it almost 64 years.
Can you throw in another prayer my way? My oldest and dearest friend of 30 years is no longer talking to me, and I have no idea what I could have said or done to have this happen. I sincerely need ALL of my friends right now,and the loss of this one really puts a dagger into my heart.
Quoting: tiger1 Oh Tiger, you really are going through it. Your emotions have truly been battered in these last weeks. Of course you will have my prayers, and absent healing. I only know you on line, but think of you as a very special person. On a physical level, can you or a friend gently massage the big pads on the soles of your feet aka reflexology? Love, healing and blessings MySoul I have no one to do that for me. :( I think I will try a heating pad later,as my whole rib cage really aches bad. I really wish I could get a deep massage for my upper back, as it really hurts, as do my ribs. I think a good soak in a hot tub might help me a bit. I think the section of my right lung went kaput on Sunday morning when I was at church.About halfway through the Liturgy, I always take a quick bathroom break. As I was walking up the stairs to get back into the choir loft, I couldn't catch my breath, and thought I was going to pass out. I sat down for a few minutes, and felt better, but extremely tired. The friends here on GLP that I have made over the years, are so important to me. I honestly do not know what I would do without you all ! Some of you I communicate with via landline and email, away from this forum. All of my oldest and closest friends here at home, are all deceased except for one person, the one who suddenly went invisible on me. BIG HUGS to You, MySoul !!!
