Trip To The ER Yesterday

Unfortunately, things got worse yesterday and I ended up in the Er via ambulance. Not exactly my plan for the day. After spending almost 6 hours over there, I was diagnosed with Pneumonia, given antibiotics and sent home. So, I am not up to much these days because of this and hope that I will be stronger soon and get more interested again in doing things. Have a good day!

I'm so sorry that you have pneumonia. It can really take its toll on a person, I remember it knocked me on my backside a few years ago when I had it. If I were closer I would make you some chicken soup and bring it to you to help you. Try to keep hydrated so that you don't get too much weaker.

Sorry to learn about your being rushed to the Er ! The Pneumonia often proceeds from a cold.

Sorry you weren't feeling good earlier this month, Marlina. It sounds like ER's must be the same everywhere when most have to wait six or so hours before being seen. Sometimes that is due to accidents being brought in that are more urgent than our needs, but often it's just that the waiting room itself is just loaded with folk. At least you didn't have to be admitted. Are you doing better now?

Sorry to hear of your ER visit. On the bright side you weren't hospitalized and they found out what was making you sick. Best of luck for a quick and healthy recovery.
