I was just getting used to my newly changed schedule, thinking I might be organized enough to fit in everything I need to do with a couple less hours available to me each week day, and now my lungs hurt.
I was feeling so optimistic this morning, I had energy and I was getting things done. Never mind that my back hurt in an all to familiar way yesterday, resembling something close to the way it hurt when I had bronchitis and pneumonia. I was feeling rather chipper today in spite of my allergies. I worked on a logo, I set up a sign template, I got a shower, I even went grocery shopping. Half way through putting the groceries away, I got dizzy and had to sit down. When I finished I sat at the table and chatted with my mom. (she stopped by after she got off work) And that, my friends, is when my lungs really began to ache. Not just in my back this time, this time they were aching all over. Each breath made me aware of how crappy I felt. Apparently the tree pollen has been pretty high lately. I've been congested the last few days, and my throat has been itchy, but this is just too much.
I don't think I have to tell you that I've been taking it easy and plan to keep with that until I can breathe good again. I can still handle yoga and some light but effective exercises, just not the ones that make me breathe hard. I am using all my asthma arsenal to fight this mess, but if I have to I will get to the doctor before it turns into something real bad. Have I mentioned how I hate being allergic to nature...it totally sucks, because I love having the windows open and being outside.
