I went back to the pulmonologist yesterday.
I was wheezing pretty bad so he gave me 5 days of an antibiotic, a cortisone shot and told me to take the Prednisone again on the 4x4, 3x4, 2x4, 1 everyday until further notice. Hmmmph. Since he'd made me wait a month for this visit, and had not given me a cortisone shot the last time, I guess that I'm lucky that I wasn't any worse off that I am was. I guess that's also why I've been dragging my arse around without the energy to "cuss a cat". The good news is that the company, Lincare, that supplies my oxygen machine and portable tanks, also carries nebulizers. He had his nurse phone in a 'prescription' for a portable, battery powered nebulizer. Woohoo!!
I'd do a cartwheel, if I knew how. They called me later in the afternoon and are scheduled to deliver it this afternoon.
Now, I'll have a portable nebulizer AND a portable oxygen canister to take with me to the Faire. And, hopefully, my energy level will be better by the 9th.
I think that I'll call it an early night, for me at least. I finally have some stories to beta from 5 (yes, 5) ladies. Yippee, the dry spell is over! That ought to keep me out of mischief for the entire weekend. Ya think?
later...
