The last couple of days have been good days. I think it is an effect of the prednisone I have to take. I have been able to exercise and get things done and hadn't felt any sickness. Until today. I woke up with a sore throat that made it hard to swallow and eat. There is a list of side effects that the doctor wants to you call the office about, no matter what time it is. And a sore throat is one of those things. So as a result of that call, Ken took me to the Instacare clinic. There is no messing around with anything that might be an infection! The doctor did a strep test, which was negative. So I probably have a slight cold virus. It actually feels somewhat better than it did this morning. I guess it is my new reality that I can't ignore something that I would not have worried about before.
Here are some things I am grateful for the last few days:
-Friends who have visited and been so thoughtful.
-Smoothies that are easy to swallow.
-The frozen packages of homemade soup that our son, Brian, made for me. That came in really handy today and tasted so good.
-Not having any nausea.
