My leukemia's back.

On another note, I spent yesterday getting a PET scan. Usually, it's not too big of a deal. Yesterday evening, my feet hurt so bad, I had to take pain medication. I haven't had to resort to the strong stuff for almost a year. I don't know if it has to do with the storm, or if it was the radioactive dye, or a combination of the two, but I was in some serious pain. They're somewhat better this morning. Today is going to be laundry day. I need to get caught up on it, and I don't have to be on my feet too much. I've got a load of dishes already running, so I can get Dd to put them up later.

Take care.... Stay off your feet.
I know my lungs have settled down for a while.... But they are starting to give me first. Waking up going for air.
Asthma is really getting bad.... Bet it's from the smoke out west ? I dunno.
But when you can't breathe..... NOTHING..... Else matters. Hopefully my lungs will straighten back out.
 
Awww, thank you Diva. I'll be fine, don't worry. I will stay off my feet as much as possible today, and take something if I have to. I do have some very strong pain meds for it, and they do work good, I just hate taking them unless I absolutely have to.
That's good..... I'm unable to not take mine.
Even on good days I need to take a little.... I'm not an addict.... But my body is dependent on them but it's been a deal for the best part of 20 years...... The BMT did a number on my joints...... The treatment is almost as bad as the disease (not really I'm here)..... But I can also say without morphine I'd probably sit around a lot and watch T.V. because i wouldn't be up to doing much.
That's why I get upset when I hear on the news about how that want too crack down on the companies that make pain meds..... It's not us chronic pain patients that are ODing...
And these people that are out there jonesing for heroin would have been addicted to something. It's sad but true ....

I hope the pet scan shows good results!
