Memories

I am finally feeling better. Well, better than I have in over two weeks. I still don't know what hit me, because my illness was quite different than hubby's.  It started with severe pain in my joints, could barely move my hands. My neck was very stiff and painful. I had a killer of a headache, much like a migraine.  Painkillers helped, but I hate taking them. So I relied mainly on Aleve.  For four days the pain continued to finally wane off.  Then the cough hit...which was weird as it was more of an asthmatic rather than a cold cough. No sneezing, sniffles, runny nose...nada! Just the cough, wheezing and hardly sleeping.

The cough still lingers and will for a week or two more. In the meantime, rest and aspirin seem to work the best.

I feel like I lost time and of course, had to cancel several appointments. I am waiting to call my dentist, as the cough is still quite annoying at times. With my luck I will get the urge to cough when I have my mouth wide open.  Ugh!

Lab test is now in limbo as my appointment to my cardiologist was automatically cancelled. I guess they didn't bother to tell me until I tried calling to change the date. Oh, sorry but you don't have an appointment...would you like to reschedule with another provider?  Um...no.  I hung up.  I'll just wait to see what happens.  I believe he is moving over to Pima Heart, so I am not a high risk case, I can wait.  Hubby on the other hand, scheduled with a new doctor.  He has several refills he needs approved, so I can understand.

The above picture was created before I got ill.  I am still shaky so will be posting pictures already completed until my hand is better at working the canvas.

Oh...I still can't drink wine...so cheers...with orange juice! 😎
