So. I have pneumonia.

The doc was concerned about my continued high temps so we went in yesterday. My oxygen saturation was down and the doc could hear the rattling/crackling low in my ribs. It's kind of weird to feel relieved, but at least now it's something treatable. I'm on antibiotics - pill version of the liquid we were giving Morgan - and it seems to be going well. This morning for the first time I woke up with a normal temperature. Usually (well, over the past week) it's high in the mornings and then drops later in the day. Last night around ten I had a bowl of cereal, to take advantage of being able to injest milk. Looks like now maybe I didn't need to, and could have saved the last of the frosted mini-wheats for this morning. Oh well. Today I had a granola bar before I took my antibiotic and it went _so_ much better. I should know not to trust any pill that says it can be taken without food.

Houston, we have a diagnosis!

Alan told me yesterday, and I have to say I'm really relieved, too. Now you can be on the mend and enjoy the rest of your summer!

Hooray!

I feel much better knowing that modern medical technology has got my lungs back. Hot honey and lemon just wasn't cutting it.
