And now that I have a captive audience!

This cold that I picked up has turned into bronchitis so I went to my primary MD and he has put me on antibiotics and a few other things, including the worst tasting cough medicine ever concocted ( Read more... )

I hope that you are okay! My thoughts will be with you that you are. Also, poor puppy! Drink lots of water and orange juice if you can. Don't over exert yourself and please get well.

Love.

Thank You,
Being retired, I don't have to exert myself except when I want.
I'm going to try sleeping for a while.

Wow. Tis the season for health, huh? I do hope nothing too serious is going on. Sometimes our inner ear can be affected before we get other signs or symptoms of a cold. Maybe your vertigo was caused by something like that or pressure on a nerve. Do take care of yourself. I was miserable with that head and chest infection I had. Get some pillows and create a comfy way to sleep upright so you don't have to cough at night (esp if the cough syrup is yucky!)

I'm so glad to hear you are looking into the cart option for your poor puppy. So many people give up on the animal when assistance is what they need. I'm sure once he adjusts he'll be mobile in no time. :)

Feel better soon friend.

Thank you,
I'm going to try to nap. I'll try it in a recliner w/pillows. It is 2:35 A.M. here. :(

I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you.
Twelve to fourteen days and I'll be as good as old.
My biggest frustration other than the cough and runny nose, is having my routine screwed up. 'Can't sleep, then when I finally do, Fourteen hours at a stretch. Yawn! ^_^

If you post using rich text you can just click this symbol which has notepad type lines on it and a jagged line through it.

Hope you feel better soon and the test results are nothing too worrying.

Thank you, Lisa,
I found my old tool, but too lazy to go back and re-do.
Probably elevated cholestrol, as I haven't been cautious about my diet.

Well over Christmas everyone has overindulged. Maybe you can make some small changes for the new year.

So sorry to hear you are ill. I hope the Doc just wants to go over the test results in person- they do that sometimes. Also, ear infections raise all kinds of havoc with your balance.
Isn't Jave the one that was so oill a few months ago?

I am actually lucky, as I have problems, but most are more worrysome than serious. The vertigo does bother me. I will follow up with MD until I find answers.
We have just the one pet, Java is 10 lbs of noise and attention hungry dog. He is quite loveable, but will always have problems due to coming from a careless puppy farm. I did not do the research that I should have when seeking a pet.
