Chest Infection with Asthma complications

Would ya bloody believe it, I've got another chest infection.

I haven't and still ain't well. I got a chest infection last week.

The chest infection has lingered on me since last week, I've been having hot lemon and honey hoping that would clear the infection, it hasnt worked before so dont know why i thought it would this time. Around 4am this morning 22/03/2024 I had an Asthma attack and its playing me up with chest infection. Why on earth did I think I could get away with with no antibiotics or steroids I'll never know. I got up about 4:20am as I couldn't breath properly, wheezing and coughing bad even worse moving about, poxy illness. Anyway I've started taking the antibiotics Doxycycline and steroids Prednisolone 40mg now. I'm not going to do anything other than sit around..again, as everytime I move about my Asthma plays up, not so bad while sitting still. 😡

A couple weeks back I had problems with Chiari Malformation a condition of the brain and spine, now chest infection with Asthma complications. Now I can't have my cataract operation on 4th April as I've to be completey clear of antibiotics and steroids. Grrr! I'll have to cancel my operation Monday I think as I'm not up to ringing to talk to anyone today. 

memory Loss

My memory is so bad, I'm having difficulty remembering anything. I think of something and it's gone like flick of the fingers, in a flash! My mind goes completely blank. I can't remember things I've said or done recently, this is getting worse each day and it is worrying me.  

I've been told by people it's age, maybe a bit but I don't think so, I believe it to be Chiari Malformation which I've had experiences of memory loss and not recognising people who I know very well or I dont know where I am.

health problems...

Last night I was restless, I didn't get to sleep to roughly 3:30am...ish. I got up at 8:15am. 

Today, I've got a bad upset stomach again and feeling nausea so not a happy bunny today. 

I'm having a quite, lazy day I would say. I'm just going sit on my sofa and watch tv. At least yesterday I had a good day very few and far between. 

If its not one illness its another, I expect many people can relate to that! I can't really say what is upsetting my stomach as I've got so many illnesses that could be the problem. I think it could be the gall stone causing my problem. Then again it could be 'Chiari Malformation' which causes diarrhoea or 'Irritable Bowel Syndrome' or 'Fabry Disease' I think really the gall stone. I was told when I had the scan it's a large stone. I suffer with other illnesses too. 

■ Chiari Malformation is a rare condition of       the brain. I was diagnosed 2006

■  Fabry Disease is another rare condition I        have I've have which is low immune                system. I was diagnosed with FD about 3        years ago. I've had symptoms all my life.        I think I inherited it from my mum, but            not quite sure. 

      My eldest son has got Fabry Disease and        suffers badly.
