Call Me Sickly

Ohmygosh, so like remember when I had swine flu and then after that I got pneumonia? And then my doctor called and sent me to the hospital because he thought I had a pulmonary embolism, but I took a test where I sucked in a bunch of radioactive stuff and the bad pain I was having was actually from pleurisy? And right after I got over the pleurisy pain, I got a cold? And then remember how I told my boss that it was TOTALLY a good thing that I had a sore throat because that meant my sinuses were draining? And then my sinuses stopped draining and I started coughing and my lungs felt like they were filled with concrete so I went to the emergency room in the middle of the night because I thought my pneumonia had come back? And remember how the doctor sent me for my third chest x-ray in the last month and then told me that all that gunk that drained out of my sinuses had gone down my throat and into my lungs?

So it turns out I don't have recurring pneumonia, but it does turn out that the sore throat I had two days ago? Was not such a good thing after all.

I caught a cold this weekend. I've been bitching about it for two days. Until now.

My dear, please get well soon. You've had enough!

You are having a rough time, aren't you? My son's swine also went into pneumonia. He's better now. My swine went into bronchitis ... which I can't seem to get rid of. I was up all night coughing and it has been a couple weeks of fighting this thing. DOWN WITH PIG DISEASES!!!

You need to kick up your feet and relax.

Good grief! I think you should be illness free for the next FIVE YEARS, to make up for your run of sickness.

Feel better, girl.

Hope you feel better soon. You have a great attitude about it, considering.

Do they know what is wrong?

I know your pain. I had a similar issue last summer... bronchitis, walking pneumonia, possible pulmonary edema, then possible CANCER (!!) then finished off with a heaping helping of sarcodosis. Email me if you want to talk lung issues. :) And have them check for sarcoid.

In the meantime, take care.

XBoxhisnameistoolong had the best comment so far. Here's hoping you feel much better very very soon.

At least you can take cool pictures that make you look like you're in the resuscitation chamber on the secret ice base on planet Hoth. I hope you get better soon! Feeling crappy is too much a price to pay for cool Star Wars-y pictures.

You put me to shame, with all this going on and still posting regularly. I'm not sure what my excuse was this past week.

Just focus on all the things you'll be immune to once all this is over!

DON'T think of all the other germs and such waiting in line for the next crack at you. Pretend I didn't say that.
