I do what I can to stay well, but I am only human and somtimes unable to do it.<br /><br />bronchiectasis does not always lead to transplant, but a treatment plan that can prevent further decline and management of symptoms. <br /><br />Maybe to those who just read here, it seems like being ill is my world. But this is a blog about my illness and the struggles I have with it. Its not a blog about my life. Illness is something that goes hand in hand with my life, but my life does go on and I do plenty away from what is in this blog. <br /><br />For anyone wondering about my blog purpose, I would recommend reading my first post.Bitter_Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04575126047702158106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4652993880806216821.post-2636251315912044512011-07-18T16:58:18.405+01:002011-07-18T16:58:18.405+01:00You say that you're doing everything you'r...You say that you're doing everything you're supposed to to help yourself in one line, but in the next you say that you were too tired to do your nebuliser and breathing treatments properly, so instead you just whacked your meds down and slammed on the humidifier. Which is it? Are you careful, or are you slapdash?<br /><br />it is not enough to do the treatments only when you feel like it, or only when your breathing is so bad that you have no choice; prevention is better than cure, and the treatment will be more effective if you are not already bunged up.<br /><br />i wish you luck with the CT and I shall pray that you don't have bronchiectasis, as this inevitably means an eventual lung transplant, which you need like a hole in the head.<br /><br />Look after your body, you only get one. Do the treatments properly and accept that this is the only way you will stay well. Sometimes it seems as if you positively revel in the prospect of yet another serious illness. I know that being ill makes you feel like the centre of the world, but there are better ways to get attention. Like recovery; you could become a stand up example of someone who overcomes a major hurdle and demonstrates a great example of life after illness. Illness is something that happened to you. Don't get lost in the whole thing, you are worth more than that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
