Crumbs!

It's the 1st December and I haven't posted in ages. Well just a quick update as I don't want to bore the pants off you anymore with my 'illness'......

I went back to the docs today for the 5th time in 10 weeks - yes 10 weeks! It now appears I have whooping cough. Strangely this is something that is not always associated with babies and children and can develop in adults even though I've been vaccinated. It's not nice I have to say and having read all about it on t'internet I can now see that it's what I have. At least I now know and I've been given some antibiotics to take for 10 days and an inhaler to hopefully help stop the coughing. Honestly it was getting to be ridiculous. I've been coughing uncontrollably for over 3 weeks to the point of being physically sick. Not nice at all and it's been so exhausting as well. I am really run down. I haven't been out much because a change in temperature causes me to cough, so by being out for a couple hours basically renders me useless for the rest of the day! I now, hopeful, can begin to get better and start living again. Maybe xmas doesn't seem so bad after all.

Off to Linda's all day crop tomorrow with Sandie, Anita and Sue. I so want to go and have a good time. Keep your fingers crossed I can last the day. You never know I might even have some LO's to show you!

Stay healthy!
