But you were going to go into the Dr. Did you?

Yes! I'm fuzzibrained. Diagnosis is URI, possibly pneumonia, waiting on chest x-ray results to rule out or confirm. I'm off until Tuesday.

Pneumonia can hang on and not let go. Be sure you are completely over it before doing any outside strenuous work.

Thanks. Making coffee this morning wore me out, I had to sit and rest afterwards.

I put beef bones in my large slowcooker last night, and this morning the broth is looking good.

Named the Sussex pullets:

Pink - Claudia
Yellow - Lois

I may keep one of the boys, whichever one gets along best with Zaccheus. Then I will name him. The other two have a home waiting for them, a BYC member living here in NC.

Hope you're feeling better SOON. I am getting over some summer cold - knocked me out for ~3 days. Tomatoes scorched on the vines when I should've been canning.
Get well - sending healing thoughts your way.

Rant Warning...

THEY BROKE MEDICINE

I got a chest x-ray yesterday afternoon, to confirm or rule out pneumonia. This morning I went back to my PCP's office to get blood drawn (tech wasn't there yesterday pm) and I talked with the medical assistant about the x-ray results. She said they won't receive results for A WEEK?! A WEEK? The radiology department must not have a FT radiologist on staff, are you KIDDING ME?!?

Our medical facilities are now like those of a third-world country.

So if you have pneumonia you won't get treatment for at least a week!,

That stuff can kill ya -- don't the know about "STAT"??

My doc put me on an antibiotic yesterday, one totally new to me, with no history of allergic reactions, doxycycline. I also started taking my ivermectin stash (from 2021) three days ago, and apparently the two drugs work well together!

@Baymule I'm resting! Really! I can't not rest, it was all I could do to pick up carrots and cane sugar soda at the local grocery store after my bloodwork. Bonebroth is on "keep warm" until I can add the chicken bones from two days ago, and some carrots. I've been dozing in my recliner.

Do you have anyone to check in on you?
I hope meds start to help you soon.

Hey, fuzzi! Hope you feel better soon.

I live with my adult son, and a family friend (who's 76). If I keeled over they'd help.
