I have a cold and since I have asthma my lungs are not good. I'm using a steroid inhaler (I generally don't use as directed (which DO approval) because the steroids are agitating and I'd rather be a little wheezy. But when I get sick, out comes the inhaler. And the breathing treatments that make me really jittery. So it's 1:45, I've had meds hours ago, I am hot from breaking a fever and I'm agitated.
Sometimes I really want to go back in time to the day I caught whooping cough, which caused my asthma, and called off sick or something so that I didn't see the person who unknowingly exposed me (I am allergic to the DtaP shot so had no immunity).
Hate this. I'm not even all that sick, just a horrible cough, sore throat and a little fever, but the asthma will control the next several days since getting out of bed makes me cough.
Sometimes it feels like just when you start to feel like everything has to be hard. I'm still missing my cats to the point of thinking I hear them or talking to them. I'm told this is normal. I'm even crying at home and that NEVER happens. but this on top of it? Too much and it's good I am sick enough to be in bed anyway.
