COUGHING UP BLOOD....................................

[Guest guest]

Just got home from MCV downtown Richmond to pulmo. Had 2 xray views

taken, Dr. said much more honeycombing and moving up from the bottom

of both lungs pretty much simotaniously. Lungs have gotten smaller

(crap) not good news for ML. Anyhow put me on " tri-pak " , Earl went

to store to get it. Only take the tripak if I start coughing up more

blood to stop any infection that may be zooming in on me. Said no

pneumonia or anything else they could find. Lots of crackling though

goin' on.

Said to stay on 15mg pred for a while.

We had a coupon for 2, so we stopping at Hardees (2 for 1)bought the

burger, came home and had burger and coffee. When Earl gets back

from the store, he most definitely will want the " puter " so I prob.

won't be on til 4pm or so.

I am really glad I went anyhow and did the right thing. No

foolishness with this horrid disease. Seems to be moving right

along. Can't complain I guess.

Will keep you posted.
