Room with a View - Again!
Well, Well, Not So Well. Last week I was not feeling that great. I thought it was because I was coming off of steroids. WRONG!! Saturday ( 8/9), I was running a temperature of 102 and was having difficulty breathing. So - I called the City of Hope and they wanted me to come in.
I know I did the right thing by visiting the ETC (Emergency Treatment Center) at CoH, but I didn't think I was sick enough to be admitted. WRONG!! Over the last two days, I've had a battery of tests including chest x-rays, blood cultures, ARG, ct scan, and bronchoscopy - plus more IVs. The preliminary findings indicate it looks "suspiciously" like PCP Pneumonia. So - until they know more, here I sit - AGAIN!

Been thinking about you a lot, Nancy.
I have an appointment for yet another chest x-ray tomorrow at Helford, so I may pop in to say hi.
Love and hugs,
Susan
