Keeping Chickens When You Have Arthritis.

[microchick]

Coming home we checked 4 stores then hit ace paid 20 for n100 but overkill better for me have the kid doing chickens for a few days as doc said no chicken duty yet the smoke is so think but would not have realized pneumonia was back but for the smoke
BF ordered 10 of N95 off amazon for 31.00

They cut you loose! YAY! Now take care of yourself and lay low till that nasty smoke clears. Several years about DH and I were burning two huge brush piles in our pasture. One day while we were out the wind shifted on us and we got caught in smoke. Couldn't help but breathe in a bunch of it. Two days later we were both coughing our heads off and running fever. Never got sick from breathing smoke before but we sure did and it made believers out of us.

Okay true confession time. Up until last Christmas I had a flip phone. I only needed a phone for two reasons #1 to call 911 and#2 to find my husband in Walmart!
Since I’ve gotten the phone I realize how fat my fingers are to text lol. And I spend a lot more time taking breaks while I garden.
I don’t bother most times to correct my typo’s.
And my chickens like me sitting more cause I get suckered into treating them while I BYC under the tree.

@microchick What meds will you be taking? One of my family members just about died because of the long term effects of the Methotrexate he was taking for his arthritis.

 

[microchick]

Yeah, @BYCforlife that's the one I just started. I know about it being a retired nurse. There are drugs I won't touch because of the side effects. I don't want to take the new biologics nor plaquinel. Methotrexate was the lesser of the evils. It's that or steroids and I absolutely do not want to do long term steroids.

Okay, I hope it works out really well for you. Good luck!
