health woes

Since the cough didn't clear, I went to see my GP today, along with [personal profile] antongarou. (we both go to the same doc now, and he also does not feel very well. Very comfee).

She checks me up and declares I'm in a much, much worse state than last week (which ended up in ER, mind you). My lungs are full of chirping and beeps,the bronchus are completely blocked,and the sinus as well. Joy and happiness.

So. All the heavy artillery is out now - I'm to do for a fucking week Inhalation of terbolin and Salbutamol. Three times each day which is a bloody nuisance. Also - a new inheritor - QVAR 100MCG. For a week at least, more if possible.Fluticasone twice a day, and Carbocysteine twice a day.

Rather an impressive amounts of steroids, all in all. That sucks.

But the worst - I have really, really bad side effects from the inhalation. My heart rate accelerated to a degree that I could not get up and walk;pain in the chest, dizziness, weak limps, trembling, headache, near-fainting. It's been a fucking hour ago, and I'm hardly better, WTF? Is it dangerous or just unpleasant? Dare I go to work and do it there? (at least ER is 5 minutes way, yes?) Are there any long-term effects?

Yes, I search the web, and neither of us understood the info. Send an Ask to the doc, it will take her several days to reply.

Me not happy.

Also - horrible case of Cabin Fever. I'm fucking alone at home, sick, for over a week and I'm going fucking out of what little mind I've left. AM really doing bad here. If any close friends was living close by, I would have begged for company. BUt - my closest friend is in KY, and the other close friends are working till 20:00, or else living in Haifa (AN) or North than Haifa (Shear).

And my brain is also feeling all kinds of weird. Stuffed with wool - but worse than that.
