HI Everyone!
Well I did manage to get myself to the dr yesterday morning after suffering my little heart out on sunday night- I finally gave up took a primatene and went to bed. Then yesterday morning I had a horrid coughing spell and i almost just called my mom to see if she wanted to be at minute clinic when they opened.. thankfully about 730 it started getting tons better and I came here in the living room and opened the blinds and noticed it was kinda breezy and turns out it was a nice cool breeze so I kept it open and sat down for a while and felt tons better.
I was at minute clinic around 9 something and out by 10- They couldn’t technically say I had “asthma” but they could treat me for allergies/wheezing/bronchitis and such so – that is what they did. While we were doing the visit they check my blood oxygen level and asked me if i felt o.k. and I was like well I have a headache and what not but i’m o.k I suppose. then they asked me if I felt faint/if i was having an attack right then and i was like .. well. .i don’t think so.. WHY lol. Turns out my blood oxygen was reading pretty low and they almost had to send me to the ER!
My allergies are apparently off the chart and is triggering the asthma (as well as heat, a possible allergy to something in the house like the carpet being some triggers too) anyways I got an albeuterol inhaler, a strong dose of prednisone and I also have to take allegra all the time now. I can’t believe I didn’t attribute it to allergies all along but it makes since, esp with seasonal allergies and such so.. yeah.
Where my blood oxygen level has been so low the last few weeks that is why I am so extra special tired so I am supposed to rest a ton, but I keep finding things that I just have to do , plus I went out with my mom after the DR office and today when she went to the grocery store but- I really do need to do what most people think I do best- laying around/sitting around writing and watching tv π
After I took the first dose of prednisone I felt REALLY better compared to what I have been, and today has been fairly decent too except it is kinda rainy out and I did get a bit winded when I was at my moms having lunch (she made me a pot pie up that all I have to do is pop in the oven here in a bit)
I have 2 reviews I want to get up like. ASAP and then one that is going to be AWESOME WITH A GIVEAWAY π that I will be working to try to get up by next week- I also have 500 emails I need to send out and check on too lol At least it gives me something to do when I am sitting here right?
Right now I am gonna see what I can get into even though it is late in the day and I need to take Marley out but it is raining like heck so if she isn’t acting like she NEEDS to go I think I will wait- I also need to pop the potpie in the oven π
More later/soonest <3
