She is off continual O2 as of today’s follow-up visit. On an inhaler every 6 hours. If her O2 numbers drop below 90, then on for 15 minutes. Dr wants her on it when sleeping tonight, since we are still at elevation. Once we get down to Denver and then home, no more O2.

Added another antibiotic (Azithromycin), since she spiked a fever last night and that was after 48hrs of being on Amoxicillin. Dr wants her to finish both rounds.

working on trying to get follow-up with her primary once we get back to SD.

All in all, heading in the right direction.
She tested negative for Covid, Flu A/B and RSV On Sunday, Monday and Today.
Excellent.

How is your daughter feeling
Thanks for asking. She is Getting better.
Tuesday she was removed from O2, but Dr wanted her on it while sleeping. She also started another RX, that seemed to help more. Wednesday, drove down to Denver O2 @ 92. Got home to San Diego and she is back in the upper 90’s.
Has another follow-up Monday with her primary Dr. Yesterday she got the all clear to practice volleyball and was given the go ahead to play this weekend in her tournament.

She still has a nasty cough that comes and goes.
All in all heading in the right direction.

Hope is gets through the house, without getting you and your better half :)
It just keeps making the rounds. One gets better the other gets sick. It’s been on going since the Friday before Christmas 😞 I’m exhausted

Masks are funny things. Very divisive. If the question is whether a local/state/local government should be able to force people to wear masks or in what circumstances should they be able to force it, that's a legitimate question.

If the question is whether they work though, I have a tough time believing there are people who really think that. If you really believe they don't work, then next time you go in for a surgery, tell the surgeon to leave their masks at the door. I haven't met a single person who will go that far.

Wife and I have had the flu for the past week. I woke up at 0400 soaked in sweat and feel better today. It's been a while since I had the flu, but this was much worse than Covid. Stabbing headache for three days was brutal.

Well, this shit is driving me crazy.
Daughter is at follow-up appt with her pediatrician. Dr says lungs still sound ‘crummy’.
- Albuterol treatment in office
- Liquid steroid given in office
- new chest x-ray ordered

results of x-ray will determine next steps.
Could be more antibiotics, additional steroids or admission to hospital.

The crap hit hard up north. Nasty irritating stuff. Two weeks in and finally feel human. Still coughing. Now the wife started in. Half of the shop has been sick. The not being able to sleep is the worst part of it. Wake up in the middle of the night trying to catch your breath sucks. Even though it is not Covid, I thought about my three friends who died from it. Dam, what a suck azz way to go. Feeling better and can see a Rum and Coke shortly in my future.

I sneak around here an there. ;) nobody knows me anymore
If I remember we share the same birthdate 12/10?

Sorry to hear about everyone being sick.

Last night coming home from dinner I lost my voice. I even tried to yell and my wife could barely hear me. Voice is better this morning, but woke up with a cold. I hope it isn't a 3-4 week deal you guys are going through.

I got something Monday night, but I was in an over packed Torrance memorial emergency room with someone, full waiting room of over 50-75 people, ever hallway filled with people on gurneys, insane! took me down for a day and didn't eat for 2, but not too bad after that.
