:: hugs n hot tea :: n of course you're in the prayer circle. We've got you and yours, and he's got us ALL <3

So far only 2 stops ! Emergency room and regular room ! Ivermectin, 3 IV antibiotics and blood thinners....and the biggest help by far....Decadron steroid !! Like a rush of adrenaline. Hopefully no ICU vacation will be needed.

Awesome News! If you can, get started on your bone broth now, and try to keep laughing and Loving- really is the best medicine, next to the Lord himself :: more huggies, hot tea,
and some "cupping" to help the process along ::

Yesterday presented to ER with fever of 101.6, lethargic 02 level low 90's and havent eaten in 6 days. Chest x-ray showed pneumonia in both lungs. IV Roshepen (sp), Arithromyacin and Decadron steroid. 02 fell into upper 80's and was put on nasal cannula at 2 liters. Admitted about 5 pm. Appetite bounced right back and had first meal in days!

You seem to be doing well : ) I would have suggest you pack more small clothes than you thought you'd need- those antibiotics after a few weeks ill and not eating, coupled with the coughing lol- I went thru my 12 pair the first night --
didn't hit the food for a few days, but man that blood sure made me feel half way human again.
Keep up the good work, n walk as much and as soon as you can, even if you have to do it in place... prayers continue...

Vital signs at 9 pm were temp 98.3 ( first time in 7 days, no fever) and 02 @ 100% on room air. Vitals at 11 pm were virtualy the same. 7:30 this am.........98.7 and 98% on room air.

Very happy to hear of your recovery.

I get a sense that you were carrying that pneumonia around for a few days.

It is amazing how effective the steroids can be for certain conditions.
