These Queen Ann's Lace now exist where a lovely lavender plant once lived.

My coughing continues to knock me out, so I've tried calling everyone today (frustrating phone machine that just circles back to the beginning message at the pulmonologists!) Nurse at my primary doctor said if I have trouble breathing, seriously, go to ER. So far sitting upright works so much better than lying down, but eventually I'm tired, and have to lie down. Anyway I will see a Nurse Practitioner tomorrow.

Coughing is the new breathing, it would seem! I join you , coughing is so exhausting! I hope that you can get some real answers from the nurse...X-ray- blood work- Whatever they are capable of doing- I think that one must be insistent to get anything thoroughly checked these days. Go in prepared to talk and insist and be a squeaky wheel. Advocate for yourself. I know that insurance companies dictate what can or can not be part of one's health matters when dealing with the med profession. They get a way with it!
ReplyDeleteThanks. You are right, I must be my own advocate.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI hope you get some help, maybe a chest x-ray? Pretty flowers! Take care, I hope you feel better soon.
Hope to feel better soon as well!
Delete...phone system can be horrible! Take care and be well.
ReplyDeleteI sure didn't enjoy trying to get through to a person over there.
DeleteDo you have a recliner so you can be half and half. It works pretty well for many.
ReplyDeleteThis weather certainly doesn't make breathing any easier. I hope you get some relief soon!
ReplyDeleteYes, the muggy heat is difficult for me too. I just came home from Dr. with new things to do.
