I went to the doctor last night and figured out why I’m so sick… I have a nasty case of bronchitis heading towards pneumonia. The GOOD news is that hopefully we’ve caught it early enough and it can be stopped in it’s tracks. So I’m now taking an inhaler, Biaxin (heavy duty antibiotics) and a cough syrup. Cross fingers. I actually got some sleep last night and that was a change for sure.
I’ve got a counseling appointment for Saturday afternoon to talk about what is going on with me. I don’t espouse the use of drugs in depression. I would prefer entirely not to use them. So we’ll see what the say. There are a lot of natural antidepressants out there that could be very helpful for me I think. The one can’t be taken while taking antibiotics though so we’ll have to wait until I am done these. I’m crossing fingers HERE too that things work out.
My husband is being fabulous. Worried. But fabulous. He is panicked that I will now start gaining all of the weight I have lost back because during my LAST depression is when I GAINED all of my weight. I was quick to point out that I no longer sit and eat 3 family sized bags of chips, 4 chocolate bars, a bag of candy and wash it all down with 4 litres of chocolate milk
But it is something to be aware of for sure.
My chest hurts. My head hurts. I hurt. Ug.
I have daycare kids today (three of them) so I have to be semi-perky. I think it’s going to be a quiet stories/crafts/playing kind of day. And I am RESTING during nap time. The house is just going to have to go to shit for the next few days until I can die on the weekend. Ug.
I say ug a lot. Ug.
Dog news: Bella’s growing COAT! Yay! Bald Bella is less bald!
Trinity is puffy. Length of coat would be nice. Head is coming together little by little.
Joey is a teenager. He’s LONG legged, skinny, knobby and he would be pimply if he could. He’s got LONG guard hairs on his back and they are a lovely deep red. He’s going to be gorgeous when he grows up!
Well off to brush teeth and look presentable. It was yogurt and peach oatmeal for breakfast. I would normal have oatmeal and fruit but I’m trying to stave off the yeasty beastys that appear when you have to be on heavy duty antibiotics
