Another bad week.......😩

Well as you might have noticed I've been conspicuously absent this past week due to my feeling under the weather. I am currently fighting off my third UTI in about 5 weeks. I'm on my third round of antibiotics and I'm sick and tired of feeling bad. To top this off on Wednesday and Thursday I have a pretty good exacerbation where are my legs kind of stopped working. This did not make me happy at all as I have never experienced anything like this before. Thursday night I tried to get on my recumbent bike for 30 minutes and honest to goodness I couldn't make my legs figure out how to pedal the bike.

Well I'm going back for a recheck next Wednesday to make sure this bad boy is finally over. I hope you all are doing well and I'll try to catch up some for the next couple of days with your posts! πŸ’•Fancy.πŸ’•

I’m so sorry Dear Friend, I think the Ms makes it so hard for our bodies to fight off these infections. I too have been fighting off what I thought was a minor tummy bug. Now I realize it’s been almost 2 weeks!! Blessings and prayers that you feel better soon πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ’•πŸ‘

Fancy, don't feel too bad, we all go through it in our own agonizing way. I've not been posting or making replies cause of sever depression. I'm trying to play catch up [catsup?] however, that is hard as my fingers don't want to hit the right keys. I was once layed up because my body shutdown [just unable to move]. It lasted for about two hours, and afterwards I slept for 5 days straight days. [one way to loose weight]. Be good to you!

I’m sorry you are going through all this Fancy1959 . It can be so frustrating when our bodies don’t work like we’ve come to expect. I learned the hard way that even the slightest fever can cause me to have a big flare up. The last time it happened, my legs completely collapsed on me. It was temporary thankfully.

Homie and pray you feel better soon.

How frustrating for you! Sorry you are having to deal with this. I recently had a simple headcold that exhausted me for 5 days. I called my DR and asked for the IV steroids, have had 2 days, but didn't get that amazing energy boost as I had last time.. Spaticity cleared up for a day, and finally today I feel a little more energetic.

I hope the antibiotics kick in for you soon.
