hypatia42State of the Amy: still very ill. J and A came over tonight. J, an M.D., listened to my lungs. They then ran me through treatment hell, otherwise known as properly using your inhalers for when you're sick. Turns out I needed to be using them Way more often. Also breathe deeper even if it does make me cough. It was treatment hell cause I sounded worse after I was done and albuterol makes me jittery. Interestingly, despite sounding worse, it was easier to breathe.
Why didn't the urgent care doc tell me these things? Also, they sell pulseoximiters at Walgreens.
A was super helpful cause she is the nanny for a little girl with asthma who nearly died while sick a while back. She has the knowing of how to use inhalers to prevent dying.
