Chest pain, out of breath, very very verrry tired physically.
Last week I got all the EKGs and scans and x-rays. No clots, no heart failure, nothing that’s going to kill me. But I’m really stupid and I don’t rest like I should (hey, too much work to do). So the symptoms aren’t improving. Except for the pain, which was constant but now comes and goes.
Thankfully, this will become a light week after Wednesday morning. I think I can actually take a break and try to get better.
My lungs feel like that every day due to my CF - so for someone not used to it, it is really painful and creates a lot of anxiety.
BTW just get some major bedrest. If you’re putting extra strain on your lungs by doing anything physical (you probably get winded right now if you have to walk a bunch) you’re just going to prolong the pleurosy. Seriously, take a few days off and spend it in bed watching tv or on the couch playing games. Otherwise it’s like picking a scab constantly and wondering why it won’t stop bleeding.
Take care (if you have xbox live I’ll play somethign with you if you’d like).
Once, at the Ren Faire, I got drunk on mead and aspirated it while laffing at the Flaming Idiots. It was like drowing. The coolest part was when the mead shot out of my lung and out of my mouth in a perfect little stream, as if it had issued from a water gun. Ah, memories!
