The night after I spent all day at the doctor’s offices I began to cough alot. By the next morning I had a fever. My mom is now worried! I just dont feel so hot! There is absolutely no humidity in Texas right now as a matter of fact my curls have gone! We had to buy a humidifier for my room as it was so dry and it really helps with my lungs. There is also alot of ragweed and pollen in the air so we are not sure if this is a cold or allergy but either way I dont feel so good! My mom called Dr. Reardon and he did not like the fact that I had fever and that I had refluxed so much the day before! He suggested to my mother to go and get a xray to rule out pnuemonia. My goodness I do not want that ever again. We went to take an xray at a clinic in town. It turns out I have no fluid in my lungs so that was great news!
The doc thinks I should just tough it out and not take antibiotics so that is what I am doing! I am ready to go home and get into bed. My mom is having to cut my food back and not feed me so fast as my little lungs are having a hard time keeping up with everything. Mom is giving me a steam bath two times a day and beating on my chest to help loosen up everything. Thankfully, I am able to cough. Last year I could not cough and that made it very hard for me to get better! This year I am stronger and I hope I get rid of this soon as I have a party to attend!
