Five days ago I thought I had a cold, then I started coughing like I’ve never coughed before, feeling very weak and could hardy move. Kept going cold and hot and all I wanted to do was sleep. Had even gone off food (not normal for me) and wasn’t interested in drinking either.
hubby got worried as I was getting weaker and weaker so he called the doctor in. The doctor said do you want an inhaler? Hubby replied no I think she needs antibiotics, ok said the doc’ and prescribed me some 1 to be taken 4 times a day. 2 days later I was no better but now I had this ugly rash on my leg. I couldn’t even get into bed without help. So once again hubby called the doctor in who sent me straight to hospital. Turned out after having a x-ray I had a chest infection which was also in my lung. The doctor at the hospital said the rash on my leg was down to the antibiotics previously given and would take a long time to go. He then put me on a course of steroids and changed the antibiotics.
Now I’m left to cope with a rotten dose of MS and so weak.
The point of my post is would one of you kind people cheer me up. Please.
The thought of a new born always brings hope and cheer. The sun is shinning, the sky is blue, reminds me of how lucky I am, so bless you both I will now stop being sorry for myself.
Do let us know Ellie when you are a gran twice over, exciting times.
thank you so much and I’ll give your suggestion a try, but from the bottom of my heart you and Ellie really brought me back to my senses. I needed it badly.
you didn’t need to be brought back to your senses… you needed a good old whine! better to get it off your chest (no pun intended. or was that a freudian slip?). i love the ‘adding up your blessings for a happy whole’ idea, but a good vent helps too, and this is the place to do it. i’m glad you’re getting sorted now.
congratulations on your new addition ellie… brooke is a lovely name, you must be over the moon, xoxo
Thanks Wendy, you are quite right I did need a rant and thanks to you lovely ladies I am now counting my blessings again. It’s strange as when I first started using the forum I tried and still do give people encouragement and friendship. Never thinking I would ever get down enough to use it in this manner myself. Keep smiling and bless you all.
