Bronchitis Numbers Game

[AlisonM]

I is sick, again and feeling very sorry for myself! I have bronchitis it seems and I'm coughing fit to bust a button. Head hurts, shoulders hurt, by dose is totawy bugged up and I'm locked into the iron corset* as well, miserable. Every time I cough, I feel as if my head will explode. No anti-bs, but I do have a nice collection of expectorants and suppresants to add to all the other meds - they taste horrid. My numbers are through the roof, double figures all day despite increasing my insulins. In fact, the surgery were sufficiently concerned that the duty doctor came to see me instead of making me drag myself off my death bed to go there. He brought me one of those steamy things you fill with hot water and Olbas oil, it has a mask I can stick my phiz in without spilling stuff. I can't even smell the oil.

* feels like you're wearing an iron corset cos there's no give when you try to breathe.

Had one without the whisky, can't handle alcohol any more. And a hot chocolate, and a hot spiced apple juice.

What a horrible time you are having! Apparently there are a lot of awful things around at the moment. Hope you feel better soon. Do take care and rest as much as you can. Sending you a healing hug {} 🙂

Yuk, hope it eases soon. Those olbas inhalers are great for unstuffing the snozbox, I'm a big fan. Now tuck yourself up and watch a trashy film, it won't do anything for the chest or snozbox but it's good for the soul 🙂

Cheers, I'm going for sex on legs with a classic Bond movie. I reckon it ought to raise my temperature enough to break the fever.

 

[Carolg]

Go for it girl.

Thank you everyone. I'm off to bed now, got my DVD, flask of hot chocolate, my hot water bottle, teddy and blanky, steamy thing and various potions. I should survive till morning.

 

[Rosiecarmel]

So sorry to here this, Alison. Keep your strength up and hopefully you'll fight this soon!((hugs))

 

[mikeyB]

How are you today Alison? Feeling human yet? medications kicking in? Do let us know🙂

 

[AlisonM]

Not quite human, but definitely a bit better. The temp is back to normal, but I'm coughing like mad and my head is banging.
