When it rains it pours

For the past week or so I have had nausea, muscle weakness to the point of staggering and difficulty walking and standing. Hospital sent me to a rehab facility to see if they can help. At this point I dont know anything but I hope soon enough I will have a definite diagnosis.

On the bright side I have so many Christmas presents I dont have any place to put them. I have been giving away food and candy. Anyway, I love you all and will get back here asap. 🌺

So sorry. I hope you get better.

In 2023 I had an infected neck which spread to my spine and I started falling down. I delayed treatment then called an ambulance. I had been working from home so did not need to leave but was running low on food! Also, I could barely move around.

They treated my infection (flesh eating bacteria!) with drugs, surgeries, and a skin graft, and I was bedridden and got atrophied. I eventually was able to use a walker or wheelchair, and then did physical therapy in rehab. I went home and my parents helped me, and a month later I did not need the walker, and have not used it since.

While in the hospital I learned I also had diabetes which is being treated with drugs and diet, but my feet are numb and eyes in danger, yet the latter are being treated, too.

I also had a colonoscopy and they found inflammation and treated that, too.
