I'm feeling cruddy

I haven't blogged lately because, well, I feel like crap. I have been sick for over three weeks and I just don't feel like doing anything.

I haven't been able to breathe well for a couple of weeks and I thought I had bronchitis, but when the meds didn't work I went to my pulmonologist yesterday they became worried about me. I barely made it through the day at work, but every one else was out so I couldn't leave. He did prescribe me a nebulizer, but I don't know how much that will help. I go for an echocardiogram on Tuesday. Plus I get to have blood work done. You know you look like crap when everyone you work with keeps checking on you to see if your making it.

I do have a clear chest xray, but my pulse was racing. Blood pressure was good too. Pressure in the chest area and shortness of breath. I about collapsed. I am so glad I'm off this weekend. If my techs call out I will not be happy. Well that's the overview. I'll update you when I know something.

You poor thing! Let me know what the doctor says. I'm worried about you.

I'm still yucky. Today I went to have an echocardiogram, but all I know is that it wasn't serious enough to require running and getting a Dr. right then. I'll get the results Friday.

She made sure I knew that if she saw something bad I wouldn't be allowed to leave without seeing a Cardiologist. However, she also implied she saw something it just wasn't bad. I guess I'll find out later.
