Staving Off Illness
Good Morning. It's March 2nd, and Spring is around the corner. I have managed to stay well for almost a calendar year. No cold, flu or sinus infection. My lifestyle changes must be paying off. However, I have had about 10 days of tiredness and not systemically feeling myself. A trip to the doctor with strep and mom tests both yielded negative results. I was put on Tamiflu as a precaution.
My lament: I take two handfuls of pills per day. 4 prescriptions the remaining are supplements to address other irregularities that need correcting. All are sanctioned by my doctors. I feel good because of this (I suppose) and the 12 hours of gym work per week. I feel that my attention to my body's well-being has really taken a greater percentage of my time as I age. Alas! I guess it is the human condition I was born/blessed with. I consider what I could be facing as a female well into mid-life and I guess I will keep chugging the pills. Things such as my health were taken for granted when I was young...not so now.
Potholes are being repaired in my city (finally). The winters can be brutal to our streets. The FLU INDEX is high in our area. I am getting a pneumonia shot in a few weeks because I reached the milestone age for this last month. I am thankful. Spring is around the corner!
