ok I saw the dr | Arthritis Information
yeah I broke down and went in
the verdict?
I'm really sick. Bad Bronchitis, ear infections, and tonsilitis even though I had the damn things ripped out when I was 9.. (apparently they didnt get every last bit of tonsil tissue.) Noticible shadowing in my right lung exactly where they always expect to see it.
The ear infections explain the dizziness.
the Bronchitis explains the fever and chills and coughing up blood, shortness of breath and sleeping all the time.
the tonsilitis explains the extreme sore throat.
I figured if I was too sick to go to the darn rheumy and get my MRI etc and decide what to do since Remicade pooped out then I'm probably sick enough to actually see the dr and do something about it.
I'm on enough meds to stock a small pharmacy and Mark made me the niceset cup of tea a while ago.
oh and do NOT ever "watch " a Josepth Cotton movie when you are feverish... whooooeeeeewoooo "Shadow of a Doubt" indeed... I kept hearing Pinky and the Brain.....
Wow- you really have it! Rest up, cuddle under some blankets with more tea and feel better soon!
Hi Kathy, you need some TLC (tender loving care!) and NOW! Hope you will be back to your old self soon, pamper yourself honey. Hugs Janie.
Kathy you should take it easy, super easy and get yourself better. Hoping that all will be back to normal for you asap. Positive healing thoughts and prayers going your way.
ohmyhoney!!! that's terrible!! terrible!! .. I hope your meds start working......
Actually, I've been thinking about you and was worried that there was more to all your symptoms. I'm so glad you went to the doctor. You're one sick lady. All I can say is PLEASE take it easy and give your body a chance to heal. If you're sleepy, then sleep. Rest a lot. Your body heals when you sleep. Enjoy the TLC. Lindy
