Treatment


I haven't posted in a while.  Treatment has been a little tough.  I started my Antibiotics and within 24 hours I felt horrible.  My arm was very painful where the PICC line was put in and my previous symptoms decided to multipy.  My fatigue hit me hard, my chest pressure was so strong, and I just ached all over. I took my pain meds that decided to give me migraines...It was a rough first week!

  But, the second week I started to have a little more energy and was able to tolerate the pain a little more.  And my arm felt better!  I am not any better than when I started, but we knew this wasn't going to be a quick fix.  My husband has been amazing. Everyday he cleans my PICC line, flushes it, gives me my antibiotics, carefully watches when to hook up the second bag, and flushes it again.  He really meant it when he said, "In sickness and in health."  So thankful for him!

After being on the couch the first week, I'm thankful to be up and around and trying to be Momma again.  So thankful for the Lord being so faithful to me!  His mercies are new every morning!

  1. It's so wonderful that you have a loving husband who respects and honours the vows of marriage.

    I'm so glad you are well into treatment and my prayer is that you will be feeling much better sooner, rather than later. Big hugs to you. God bless. xx
