Foggy friday.

Posted by: peskypixies on: November 6, 2009

Today is a mixed bag………………prepare for lots of waffling………….

I go to my GP today after battling with asthma for 6 weeks since coming off my previous meds(It acted like an antihistamine in the brain suppressing it)

I told him I had been having 6-10 attacks a day.

He listens to my chest and says..”mmm you don’t seem too bad……..taken any ventolin today??”

I am wheezing like an old horse and of course I had taken ventolin this AM…before I got out of bed even………

He then says….”well we can do 2 things..we can wait and see how you go……or I can prescribe a preventative.I think we can wait a while”

Where I interrupted and said “NO WAY!!!I have put up with this for 6 looong weeks and it’s affecting my life.I can barely walk from one end of the house to the other!!!!
I NEED TREATMENT NOW!”

He didn’t seem to like this but grudgingly wrote me a script…….sigh………….

BLOODY DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s misty and raining today(like the Rod Stewart song  LOL) and of course my dog who is severely rain phobic(unless of course you don’t WANT him to get wet) decided it would be a good idea to do a massive poo right in the middle of the lounge room……just what you need first thing in the morning!!!

I did a LOT of knitting y’day on the twins teacher scarf.the double sided cable…that I had had to rip back about half way……..I am at the end of the 2nd ball and am VERY pleased with it!!!

Massive allergic reaction to ………….????something……….horrible itchy eyes………..swollen eyes……….itchy all over,runny nose………………Dh brought me home some anti histamines.the no sleep variety and of  course I went to sleep straight away for an hour………..typical!!!!

Small kitty still insists on sneaking up behind large kitty……touching him on his tail y’day …………….large kitty nearly had to be peeled off ceiling………large kitty still seems to be terrified of small kitty…..heaven only knows why…..????

Small kitty and silly dog seem to be getting on ok….when small kitty runs…..silly dog wants to join in too………small kitty hisses and puffs up.(toooo cute!!) but they seem ok together.

Small kitty is adored by all members of household…(well except large kitty) except by the Mrs when she is trying to knit..this is proving VERY trying!

Decided to push P up to 1 & 1/2 tabs per day.Am feeling better but not 100% yet.Will keep on trying.

Did some work on a quilt today.Standing is difficult so am doing it in small bursts.

Am feeling like a bit of a druggo at present.Am now taking lots of meds…..not really thrilled about that.

S for sleep and depression

P for depression

Dex for ADHD

Nurofen plus for migraines caused by Dex.

Symbicort for asthma.

Multivitamin

I think I should rattle.

Want to finish quilt this weekend and get it into the mail to go across the pond.Some generous friends have offered to help with postage.

sorry you are feeling so crappy and what was that DR thinking ???
I hope tomorrow sees some improvement. (hugs)

The kitty is divine …just what I would get if my DH would let me ;) .

My last kitty met a sad demise (snakebite), then had to give up her 9 day old kittens to fostercatmums, they lost 5/7 kittens to catflu, then they refused to give me my kitty babies back after promising me they would and sending me pictures a few days before(GGhost & Jamm)…said they weren’t suitable for a home with small children.

*Shakes peskypixie to see if she really will rattle* sorry, couldn’t help myself!

I hope you feel better soon, and are able to wean off your tabs as you wish to.

Why on earth couldn’t he hear the crackles in your lungs?? I’m glad he took pity and prescribed something. Hope you are breathing easily SOON.

Katie,
