You know, I keep telling people that 'We don’t bounce so good at our age'

This is from The Freeholder dot net and talks about some of the same things Priscilla and I have had.

“But I never remember to apply it to myself. I need to rectify that oversight.

“It seems that once one is “over” the Wuflu, the Wuflu may not be over you. While I’ve been able to get around and do a few things, the effort has left me…hammered. Each day that I have done a few things, they’ve been fewer than the day before and the price for the doing, higher. Mowing the grass yesterday was apparently totally inadvisable. By the time I’d finished, I was worn out and trying to cough up a lung.

“The odd thing is that while I was sick, I didn’t cough at all. Now I’m coughing my head off, mostly in the evenings. Getting a decent night’s sleep is problematic at best, or like last night, unlikely. For the most part, I have to sleep reclining. It seems to keep the yuck from settling.

“I have restarted the Vitamin I on the assumption that I wasn’t really better when I thought I was. I’m going to restrict the physical activity for a while, and pay particular attention to breathing. Pulseox is good, and there’s no wheezing in my chest, but there is some tightness that shouldn’t be there. I’m keeping a close eye on all things O2, and I will pull the trigger on an ER trip if necessary. I can do without a lot of things, but breathing isn’t on that list.”

(Priscilla does more than I do; a lot more. Can’t blame the kungflu for all of my inabilities. She is tired, more easily gets tired than before. We had kungflu in January – I think. Like the writer said, you might  be over wuflu, but the wuflu might not be over you. Dr. Bob’s thought: Everybody’s system is different.)
