Stubborn illness~ optimism for December!
13 years ago
Hi everyone ❤
I thought I should write a personal-health update. (Feel free to skip though, it is mostly my bawlings~)
The flu I caught back in August resulted in a harsh chronic cough. September through November I've been seeing Doctors at my local clinic (all different ones by coincidence). After a hospital visit for tests and some antibiotic prescriptions, they still haven't determined what I have but the pills at least managed to suppress the symptoms (coughing only a quarter of the time now). What's new is that the antibiotics backfired on my digestive system, nuuuuuu.
The last three weeks I've been unable to comfortably eat/keep down meals (anything drank/ate results in stomach pains). The doctor believes the Antibiotics nuked my guttural flora, all those helpful bugs scattered. She said I should rebound but I haven't made much progress the last few weeks. Bahhh ~n~''
I manage best with plain food: Milk, Eggs, Cheese, Fruits, simple Chicken, and Yogurt. Spicy or thick starchy foods don't sit at all, so I've kept myself clear of them. Oddly, I've been getting cravings for foods (justifying them in my mind somehow..), but I usually end up regretting it. Cookies, Chocolate, Coffee- anything like that. ;n;
I worry that I feel undernourished and inactive, I have lost some weight and find myself napping mid-evening. I've also been getting uncomfortably itchy legs at night too, though I'm not sure if that's related at all.
Mostly I am just sick of being sick.
--
I'm hopeful for December at least!~ I will keep up regular Doctor visits and do my best to not focus on my stomach. There is a lot of cheer that needs creating and spreading this Holiday~
Thank you for listening to my bleating, I hope to post more works soon:
