Today, Mom and I became official residents of North Carolina. Mom got all the stuff moved out of the hotel we were staying in and in to our new place about 10 miles from the hospital. She says I'm really going to like it because it's around a lot of good shopping, haha.
I can't wait to get this current exacerbation behind me so I can get up and move around! I just felt really short of breath today and actually wore my Bipap all day long. One major step forward though, no pain today, only took tylenol for a headache..so the meds are starting to work!
I am actually excited to go to Pulmonary Rehab (SCARY, I know). It might be hard and they might have to crank that oxygen up to 25 liters but I know it is all for something GREAT in the end! Just getting tired of sitting here in this old bed watching everyone else walk the halls...
I don't have any tests planned for over the weekend, the plan was just to rest up. I did have a ABG today (successful after 3 tries :( ). ANYWAYS, I just figured I'd write a little something since I somewhat felt like it today. Thanks for reading and continued prayers and support, they mean so much :)
Hey Grace, Don't worry about rehab, it's all doable. I was nervous to begin with too. Looking forward to meeting you!
