Thank you for caring about me. I am doing a bit better. I am learning what my triggers are. I am in a flareup right now, but making some progress too. Lots of mucous to get rid of. can 't move around for more than 1 minute, not coughing much, but I am on the nebulizer 5 times a day. I am taking Leviquin and musinex liquid. The pain in my back and collar bone is gone, only the ribs on the right side are still hurting me. I don't know what caused this flare up, but I was at the lake a week ago Sunday for my Son's Birthday party. 37 wow and he's my baby. I could have come in contact with a number of allergens, or colds. Who knows, but this is how I live now, and I will have to try to get treated right away when something first occurs, like a cough, and scratchy voice. That's how this flareup started. Thank you all for the hugs, messages and care. God Bless you! Chelle
I had a feeling that was happening. when you get sick, your breathing goes downhill, mine does anyway.
i'm so glad you got checked and are hopefully on the mend now that you are getting treatment.
my thoughts and prayers continue ((((HUGS))))
I thought about a sermon I heard a couple of weeks ago having to do with how we're all expected to push ourselves to do what we can with what we have - such as it is. And on some far away day we'll be greeted with, You did your best.
Take care...
Hugs to you

Many more hugs too...
