I'm home. I feel better. Perhaps not physically, but no more worries about hospitalization. Saw my own beloved Dr. Deaton today. Talk, talk, talk. Here are the results.
*Added a corticosteroid inhaler (Flovent).
*Added an antibiotic (Avelox).
*Continue with the Prednisone and the Albuterol inhaler.
*Have a CT scan of chest. Didn't have a base radiograph, so wants to take a real good look.
*Recheck appointment for Monday, though if I am feeling the same or better, I don't need to keep it (doc said).
*I am to be off work all next week. We'll see how I'm doing at the end of the week to determine whether or not I need more time off.
*Take it easy, stay in a cool environment (out of the humidity), drink plenty of fluids and don't overdo. I think I can do that.
So. That's that. I was feeling pretty crappy, so Claire (neighbor, landlady, vet, friend) offered to drive me. Thank you, Claire!
I'm hoping that these new drugs really kick this thing so that I can get back on track. But, I won't push it. Not going to relapse.
Thank you for all of your prayers, well-wishes, cares, and concerns. I appreciate you all far more than I can say.

As for 'some sewing'. I worked in very small increments of time. Seriously small. 20-30 minutes. No more than that. Usually less. Was really starting to need to do something. Ya know? Here's what I accomplished...
From this...
To this...
To this!
Now to just piece it all together.
Have a great Friday night and a wonderful weekend!
