We had visitors from England and one of the guys had it and both Andrey and I ended up with it! It was terrible and I hate being sick. We survived...until we came to Moscow and now Andrey started with symptoms all over! I have the tingling in the throat but so far I am still ok!

Now though after a few days where I'm nit improving I go RIGHT to my doctor. This year I wound up in the ER. I became so incapacitated that I could hardly breath w/so much congestion built up in my chest. I wound up having six nebulizers. Pretty scary stuff not being able to breath properly.<br /><br />Now when I'm not feeling better ny the 3rd day I get myself directly to my Dr. Not about to fool w/sickness anymore.<br />--<br />ChrisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-21104077616965817682012-05-21T10:25:46.105-07:002012-05-21T10:25:46.105-07:00Thanks, Irene! :)Thanks, Irene! :)Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9009456656795153408.post-6195386030171266142012-05-21T08:46:01.227-07:002012-05-21T08:46:01.227-07:00I rarely get sick but when I do I consider it my r...I rarely get sick but when I do I consider it my responsibility to focus all my energy toward healing myself.

I think I've laid in bed once in my entire life, for half an hour. It doesn't matter that I know rest is necessary, for some reason I can't bring myself to do it. Mind you, I'm a workaholic in every aspect of my life, so that fits. <br /><br />Hope you're on the mend soon. <br /><br />Take care, <br /><br />CaseyCaseyhttp://navigatingcyberloss.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
