I just finished my 10 day round of Cipro antibiotics and now my body is working on functioning like normal again. You know how antibiotics can mess other things up...gotta love side effects. I still am coughing and my voice isn't all back, but it's getting there. I'm planning on singing Sunday at church (thanks Joyce for trading me weeks!). My lungs still ache when I take a deep breath. I suppose it's from coughing so much. I go to my doctor in St. Louis on May 14 for a check-up. Hopefully I'll be all better by then and will receive good results.
I'm trying to get on a better schedule for exercising and taking my vitamins. I recently made a check list to help keep track of it all! I'm taking 2 different multi vitamins, Vit C, Vit D3, Mega Red (Krill Oil), Garlic, and a couple other things that I can't spell...haha. Plus my regular Enzymes with food and lately Robitussin or Mucinex to help keep thin the mucus (what a gross sounding word). I've also been doing my Pulmozyme nebulizer treatments, Vest machine (a vest I Velcro on like a shirt and it then "beats" me using air compression to loosen up the stuff in my lungs), and walking on the treadmill all at the same time. That my friends, is sometimes quite a work out! Now if only I could get out of bed without pressing the snooze 3-4 times. Then I could get it done before the day gets going!
Thanks again to everyone that has been checking on me and even just thinking of me. It all is appreciated.
