You and I are a team, Ruchie!! I know we can get through this with a little help from our friends! Yeah, my asthma has been horrible this week. I get the feeling like I have yogurt dripping in the back of my throat but it's just my sinuses. I'm especially susceptible to cold air, smells, smoke, etc., so those things will trigger my throat to fill up with fluid... if I don't spit fast enough or blow it out my nose, I'll actually gag and throw up. It makes me feel like drowning and I can only take half a breath and I'm always gasping for air or spitting or puking... Pleasant girlfriend stuff, ya know?
So I had a sore throat all day from my last bout. I've just been popping benedryls and managed to ifnd a 2 year old inhaler that I unplugged the nozzle with a paper clip. ("Health care on a budget.")
I can have steak, so I defrosted a couple from this large stash BF received from his dad for xmas. I'm hoping he won't notice. I'm planning to have those for Monday and Tuesday, and stay AWAY from any allergens (including the dog!!!).
SIGH. Spring better come SOON. Only 8 days til I can reup on my IBS medicine, and 23 days til I see the fibro doc!!!
