Good afternoon everyone, its been about 4 months since I've posted on this forum.

I've had a bout of pneumonia and was put on antibiotics &steroids. I was completely wiped out and had no energy what so ever. Im waiting for the results of my chest xray, blood test etc.

I suffer from emphysema etc and waiting to see the specialist but there's a bit of a wait. I'm feeling alot better but still weak. I was put on medication for high cholesterol & low folate late last year, I'm also on supplements.

I thought I would post something as I've missed this forum and all the people on here. I'm just waiting for the warm weather now so I can get out in the garden,

Bentleyboo,

Felt flat as a biscuit the other day, when getting my injection; Nurse told me "..but look how far you've come." I said "..but I'm still unemployable."

Got up this morning, and there was a blue tit in the birdbath. Made me smile. Call me simple if you like, but sometimes it's the little things, isn't it? I can feel spring in the air, and I hope you get out into the garden soon. Take good care of yourself while waiting for your appointment and keep in touch. Hope you get back on track soon.
