Finally Getting Better.....

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm on the backside of whatever it was I had. My fever is gone, I'm not coughing all night long, and the aches and pains have pretty much subsided,

I haven't been this sick since 2009 when I moved in here, so whatever it was really clobbered me.

I'm talking "stay in bed for 7 days" sick. Since last Saturday, I wasn't out of bed for more than a couple of hours at a time, and that was mostly to go to the bathroom, get something to drink, or do a quick email check.

And I was finally able to eat some soup last night, and not have it exit me within 45 minutes.

On the "plus" side of the ledger, I haven't had a cigarette since last Sunday, and haven't had any cravings for one, either.

I guess when you're sick enough to need 18 hours of sleep a day, your body isn't thinking of getting a nicotine fix!

Helluva way to finally stop smoking, but I guess I'll take it.......

  2. Glad to hear you are feeling better, sounds like you had it way worse than I did and I wouldn't wish what I had on anybody.

    Hell of a way to quit smoking and a hell of a way to lose weight too. There is some nasty stuff going around this year.

  3. Yeah, it just totally knocked me in the dirt for a full week.

    I didn't get a flu shot this year, as I'd read, and the Doctor's office confirmed, that there were multiple strains going around this year, and the shot only protects against ONE.
