I'm getting better, but like I mentioned, I don't do well with medications at all - headaches, migraines, stomach issues etc. It's a long haul for me. I'm trying all kinds of remedies to clear the fluid in my ears too.
My youngest dd is struggling with the bronchitic and we steam 2 x day. I don't think we'll be back to normal by Thanksgiving, but we are getting there.
Again, thank you all for praying. This really put a scare on us. The family is so used to me not being sick. The length of sickness is what is so frightening.

I know I emailed you earlier today but then I came home to read this... Sorry to hear you have so much on your plate. I'll tell you this from experience: we don't bounce back from illness when we are getting 'older.'
Those gel filled masks for the eyes cooled from being in the fridge helps with migraines for me. Also, Google 'relief band' - it is a device you put on your wrist at the pulse point to relieve nausea and are used in hospitals to control post op nausea from anesthetic. I have one but the battery died. Again, works wonderfully for me if I'm sick to my stomach from headaches, etc.
You're in my thoughts!
