had to go and have a chest x-ray before i saw the pulmonologist yesterday.
my oxygen level was 98%, he said my breathing is just about back to normal, my lungs looked and sounded great. so, i thought great he is gonna release me but no such luck.
he said if i am doing just as well or better next year at this time then he will be out of a job as far as i am concerned.
told me i looked good and was proud that i had lost more weight. i told him it would have been more but we just got back from the cruise and i gained a few pounds back.
then he said i should be a motivational speaker and tell everyone how i beat the grave. i said i don't really think that is my thing, lol.
get to stay home today, have a lot to do though.
ya'll have a great day,
