I feel like shit

[jojokarak]

Just having a moan, which isn't often but my god I haven't felt this rough or useless in a long time I can't even take the dog for a walk or cook cause I can't bloody breathe bloody asthma and chest infection and I on a huge dose of steroids and I am starving and the hubby at work seems to be taking ages to loosen it's grip on me 😭😭😭

[alfredthegreat]

Big hug coming your way jojo. Hope your hubby is home to look after you soon. Can sympathise with the asthma ,used to get it so badly up to my twenties that some days I could hardly walk. Hope it eases before long. Stay warm and cosy. Alf

Chin up my dear I know u always seem to be positive but we can't always have that face on. Hope u feel better real soon xxxx

[jojokarak in reply to Steak]

It's got to slip sometimes, I just hate losing my independence its definitely the worst thing about being ill 🤒

[Radnor in reply to jojokarak]

I can totally identify with what you mean about being crocked blocking your independence [or proud and stubborn my daughter says lol] Getting annoyed with yourself wont help your asthma but it is frustrating when you cant do much. My stint in hospital has buggered my muscle mass. I'm trying hard o get some back, cant snap a tissue or peel a grape! I get annoyed with daft things like not being able to open bottles. Now I leave them out so next visitor can oblige . As Lynne said let your hubby pamper you when he gets home. My daughter explained to me that as I have always helped them I have to accept this being reciprocated. Bet your a giver which means your not good at receiving? Im not as bad as I used to be,but its taken 10 years Others want to give just the same. told I make a good nurse but an awful patient due to being impatient. Hope you feel improved tomorrow, Love Hazel x

Sorry to hear you’re feeling so bad. You’re such an inspiration to others I wish I could make your suffering stop. Thinking of you and hope this passes soon. Get well hugs, Pam xx

[jojokarak in reply to IPCN]

Thanks pam x I keep trying to tell myself it's not going to last but it seems like forever at moment

Hope your well as can be xx

Hi JoJo

I'm sorry to hear you feel so rough. I know your a tough cookie but just let your hubby pamper you when he gets home. Anything you just text me, ok?!? Please take care. Love and big hugs Lynne xxxx

Ps get on to your Dr if you feel no better by Monday, bang the door down!!!

[jojokarak in reply to Hidden]

Thanks hunni he home now and cooked me some food 🍲 and I definitely going to be calling them Monday my antibiotics finish tomorrow but it's definitely not cleared it enough it's just knocked the stuffing out of me x

[Hidden in reply to jojokarak]

Yes, you need to mither them, start banging on the door at 8!! If I want a same day appointment I have to get down there for 07:50 to make sure I get in!! Love and big hugs Lynne xxxx

[Bootandall]

((JoJo)) hugs to you, hope you feel better soon, nothing like a little tea & sympathy, eh?

[Hidden]

Oh my - poor poor jojo ☹️☹️☹️. Do really hope you feel better soon.

[GrannyDoll61]

Maybe you could ask your husband to do you a packed lunch? A good book may help. My hubby liked adult colouring in books . Hope your health picks up soon xxx

[Hidden]

Only just picked up on your note JoJo, and wish from afar that I had a magic carpet to fly over to you with some food and comfort until your hubby returns!

Hopefully next time your hubby will have time to prepare and leave you some food by your bedside or chair until he returns!

All I can do for now is send you a huge HUG and hope you improve soon!

Take care my friend

Love Trishi x

Hi jojo no problem in having a moan sometimes makes you feel better and we don’t mind giving a few hugs that’s what we all do for each other, big hug and when hubby gets home just ask for a cuddle, good luck and best wishes 😃

[davianne]

Oh Dear, I'm so so sorry you are having a crap time.Try to think positive, it can't go on forever. Chin up Girl,

David

[Punkygirl]

Hi , there is absolutely nothing wrong with a good moan politicians do it all the time and get paid for it!!😂Hope you feel better soon.sending lots of love and hugs x

[RedLottie]

Hi,

I’m asthmatic also so understand how you feel, as when I have a bad chest it’s difficult to do anything. Hopefully you will be prescribed some different antibiotics and those and the steroids will do their job for you. Ask your GP about upping your inhalers until you feel better. (Don’t do this without their say so). Take care and feel better soon.

Hi hope your soon feeling much better, asthma is bad enough but when you get a stubborn chest infection its rubbish! I get many 😆 Hope you managed to get more antibiotics. Feel better soon 🌻xx

[sunnysmile]

Hi Jojo, my chest infections turn into bronchitis and floor me for ages. A new day tomorrow and on countdown for it to ease itself away. The cold air won't help and oh boy isn't it freeeeeezing here in Manchester. Keep your spirits up - this will pass very soon.

Big hugs to you lovely.

Gwen

[jojokarak in reply to sunnysmile]

It's definitely floored me x I on the phone to doctors in the morning I been a bit better today but I just can't walk anywhere without huffing and puffing..

Where abouts in Manchester are you? And the wind been evil today lol

[sunnysmile in reply to jojokarak]

I'm Urmston and the wind is evil again today.

Hope you got something from the docs x

[jojokarak in reply to sunnysmile]

Your round the corner from me 😁 I in Patricroft I think I remember asking you before now lol my bloody memory rubbish x

And I got more antibiotics I feel a lot better than the other day thank god I am that desperate to get out now I am actually going to meet my hubby at work later just for a brew 😂😂 he works at asda at Trafford Park it will be the highlight of my week ☓

[sunnysmile in reply to jojokarak]

They should see it off. I have just come back from Asda at Traf Park lol. Its surprising how a littlle trip there can lift you - enjoy your brew x

[Yuiop]

Hi jojo, hope your feeling a wee bit better today, I think it’s harder for a woman to loose her independence than a man, as most women tend to organise the home...ok, I know not all women, but most. Keep your chin up. Hugs.x

[vulnerable]

Awe sorry your feeling so awful hopefully it will ease and improve soon xx

[alfredthegreat]

Hi jojo. Your cold is really infectious, I give you virtual hug and then I get my first cold for five and a half years!! LOL. Are you able to take any cold remedies? Wife was going to get some Day Nurse liquid but chemist said 'NO!' She came back with some linctus for a tickly cough and some menthol crystals. Alf

[jojokarak in reply to alfredthegreat]

So sorry my dear 😭😭

And I been having lemon, honey and paracetamol and also pineapple is great for getting rid of mucus

I keep my fingers crossed it doesn't go to your chest hope it passes quickly xxx

[alfredthegreat in reply to jojokarak]

Thanks jojo . I'm doing the honey and lemon drinks and the paracetamol. Will try pineapple. It's moved to my chest in the last few hours. I only have what is classed as mild asthma now but colds normally find my chest. Hope yours is beginning to shift. Roll on summer!! xx

[jojokarak in reply to alfredthegreat]

Don't leave it alf get to your gp seriously it knocked the stuffing out of me and they have had to give me a second lot of antibiotics I knew Wednesday morning it was going to my chest and luckily my gp surgery fantastic and seen me within a few hours otherwise I think it would of been a hospital job

[alfredthegreat in reply to jojokarak]

Thanks jojo. Will get an emergency appointment in the morning if things don't improve. My GP surgery is good and will fit me in if I need to be seen.

[Hidden]

Hi jojo,

Sorry you aren't feeling well, hope it eases soon.

Moan as often as you need to - sometimes it helps.

Mary
