It was a long night. I ran 101 – 102 temperature all night long. It was hard to get comfortable- one minute I would be cold and the next hot. I felt drained this morning but am feeling a bit better this afternoon. I am getting concerned that C Diff is back as I have had 8 watery stools today.
I tested myself for Covid last night and again today and both tests were negative. I’m not sure I trust them though as last time I had Covid it took five days of being sick before I registered positive. My symptoms are more in line with C Diff today than Covid.
I ate a piece of toast with Manuka honey on it at noon and had half a bowl of chicken with rice soup. Trying my best to drink as much as I can but it isn’t going down well.
It will be very discouraging if I have C Diff again. The good news will be I should qualify for a fecal matter transplant this time. That seems to be the only way to “cure” C Diff. The bad news is I would have to suffer through another round of it first.
I was able to fold two loads of laundry today and put the clothes away. I didn’t have the strength to do that yesterday. I walked down to the chicken coop yesterday and had to rest a bit before I could make it back up to the house. Thank heavens Kathy is here and can take care of them properly for me. I didn’t have the strength to fill their watering container.
I am still in my PJ’s. I conceded that this was going to be a rest day and decided there was no used getting dressed.
I am to go to Topeka Thursday for a retina exam. Unless I am feeling lots better by tomorrow I think I will cancel that appointment. They have to dilate my eyes and inject a dye that causes me to have severe nausea for a bit. I don’t think I want to go there this week.
Dang! This sucks! I was doing so good at not getting sick. Hoping this isn’t C Diff and just a 24 hour bug of some sort.
Grateful for Kathy’s help and presence, grateful for this beautiful day on the prairie, and grateful I am feeling a bit better this afternoon.
