I had to be hospitalized Thursday for another infection. This one is a major respiratory deal. So after lots of fluids lots of potassium (not eating caused it to go way low)steroids antibiotics ect, home and resting. I'm told that even though I am not "paralyzed" i do have deminised muscle tone and thats the reason for all the infections. It seems that this year I have been sick more than well, and its really getting old I tell ya. Ok I'm done with my rant, hopefully i'll be back to my cheery self soon. :)
