Hi everyone, well that was an unexpected 2+ weeks. I was going thru a horrible flu, when I fell on the floor and next thing I know I was in an ambulance being taken to a hospital.
It turns out that going to the hospital was the best thing that could have happened. I have been battling with my lung issues for over 3 years with a doctor who prescribed antibiotics but nothing more. The hospital's doctors could tell they were dealing with something more than just simple lung issues.
They did a bronchoscopy and discovered I had not only pneumonia for over 3 years but also strep in my blood. They aggressively treated me - which led to my getting c dif also.
I had renal failure, dehydrated, along with the flu and the lung issues, so it was pretty serious when I was first admitted. But they kept digging and now have a game plan for dealing with the lung problem and not just medicating it.
So today I was released from the hospital, and went back to my apartment. Ahhh, it feels good to be back at home. It will take some time to regain my strength.
