No running for me...  But I guess that's okay.  The pain level is at around a 4/10.  I took yesterday off and spent the night relaxing.  When I put Melanie to bed, I also put myself to bed with a book.  (Brandon was at Scouts)

The coughing pain level is more like a 6/10.  Not cool.  I finally went to the doc (after a month), and he listened.  Then he had me to a breathing treatment, gave me an xray, and drew blood.  The xray showed that my lounges are super agrivated (I guess there's a lot of water in there)... and I could potientally get pnoemia (spelling?)  He can't treat me though, because I am nursing.  All he could do is give me an inhalor to help me open my lounges until I have weened Melanie.  :o( It may go away on it's own, but doc seemed doubtful.

Oh no! YIKES! I hope you are able to avoid getting pneumonia! Gosh, what to do? I had a friend with cystic fibrosis (which leads to a lot of bouts with pneumonia) who walked vigorously for 30 every day, even when she was so sick. She said it helped bring up all the gunk.

I am so sorry you are having to deal with all this. Hopefully you are going to get all the injury stuff over with at the same time, so when you start up again you will be good to go for a LONG time sans injury!

Wow, you are going through alot. I didnt catch you were that sick. How the weather holding up for you? It got down to 25 this morning and Im glad Im not running in it. The thing that sucks is when I can run again, it will be down in the teens. Get those vitamins in you. Lots of C!

Camille,

Sorry about the lungs, that stinks!! Don't be afraid to use the inhaler (btw, which inhaler did he put you on?). The inhaler will actually help you cough up all the gunk and get rid of it faster. Good luck! Heal quickly my friend.

What a bummer! Hopefully the inhaler helps and you can get all that crud out. Then you can start running again on a pain-free leg and clear lungs.

That stinks! Sorry. But just take care of yourself and it will all work out!
