As I mentioned in a post earlier this week, yesterday I was given my scheduled long acting antibiotic infusion, the first I had needed in some time, for the beginnings of my MRSA cellulitis flaring in my right foot. After discussing everything with my absolutely wonderful infectious disease doctor, overall he is actually happy with… Read more

Well, I’ve been waiting to write for this newest addition of long Covid to “settle down” so it didn’t feel like I’m always writing about health issues. . . however – not only has the “settling down” not happened – some new issues have come up and this month and the next few are just… Read more

Happy Good Friday, y’all. I am so sorry it’s been so long. I have been adjusting to some insane fatigue that is coming and going with this post-Covid business.

Of course, this week has been a sick week – but my chest has continued to be congested and this morning it was just really tight, reminiscent of childhood asthma and feeling a way I haven’t experienced in many many years – so I knew something new… Read more

On Friday, I was feeling very unwell throughout the day, taking my second antibiotic prescription, and resting – but just yuck with a… Read more

February 2nd is Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Day and – as RA is my OG diagnosis (and the one that gives me all I can handle and then some to this day) – I write a post for it each year – and, in keeping with tradition, I’m also running late (so all is well –… Read more

Hi friends! I am so happy to be making a quick Fighting Words Friday post after being away sick. I even missed last week’s FWF – which I really don’t like to do – and I’m so glad we are back. ❤ As it happens, yesterday was Rheumatoid Arthritis Awareness Day and each year I… Read more
