Can't Fight Biology

A few updates.  I was told that I am above 80% of the people on the lung transplant list nationwide.  This is good news and means I am right up there for a pair of lungs.  Just waiting on one that is my type and my size.  Being as small as I am (4'10") it can sometimes be hard to come by lungs that will fit in my chest cavity.  I just have to be patient.  Physically I am starting to notice increased coughing and I had a fever yesterday...

Winning a Battle, Losing a War

The bugs have won and I am back in the hospital.  Well technically they lost because now a majority of them are going to die, not exactly smart these one celled organisms.  I got pretty sick last week and I have been on Levoquin, but it didn't kill enough of them.  I think I waited too long to call for it.  Levoquin really took care of a lot of the infection, but just not enough to make me feel better.  I will have to get it faster next time.  One day I would be fine and then the next I wouldn't be.  It was even hour to hour.  I would feel horrible, then feel fine, then feel horrible again.  I got tired of it and decided to just come in.  Why sit and suffer for a few weeks?  Yeah I am coming in more and more often, but I would rather sit in here for a week and have a couple good weeks, then sit and struggle for weeks on end to eventually end up here anyway.  Plus I might as well be here when I feel like this.  I can't do anything or go anywhere.
