Diagnosis is that I probably had strep throat, but since urgent care did not do a swab, nobody knows! It really doesn't matter the antibiotics killed it if I did have it. The antibiotics were so strong, they gave me thrush,usually when treated it goes away. Mine didn't, it spread down to my esophagus and I have caught a cold. All viral stuff!! No more antibiotics.I just have to take a nsaid, tylenol and a med. for the thrush.

Now about the fall I am a bit sore and a bit bruised, nothing broken. Mild concussion to the head, sounds like a big deal, it's really not! The just told me no head banhing for a few days! haha!

I have been referred to an ear, nose and throat speacialist, just to be on the safe side!

Prayers work! Thanks for yours! I will be on here some tonight, maybe not so much! I aint smoking, so don't you be either!!  Have a great night!

I Won't Quit on my Quit!

Hello, I am a 59 year old female, name Terrie, still growing up. I have moderate COPD. I am an oxygen patient, currently not in need of the 24/7 or night time oxygen. Thanks to all the great support and education I got here on EX. My original quit date was 07/06/15 on day 519 I relapsed and started over in less than 24 hours. I want to go to the great beyond being a former smoker and I shall! COPD is not choosy! and not pretty! May 1rst, 2017 I am using Dale's suggestion to put off a cigarette each time and I am down from 50 to 20. I am looking forward to my old(7-6-2015)/new quit date 7-6-2017 May 4th, 2017 I started with Marlboro reds. Nicotine is a very assinine addiction. Once addicted I found I would smoke any of it including the little cigar/cigarettes, and it's still true since I threw away my quit and stopped being true to myself. I will smoke ANYTHING with nicotine in it to get the fix. I hate smoking! I am not having a problem stopping it's staying stopped, that I am not doing! I do not buy anything but regular tobacco but if caught without it I will do anything except vape to get the fix. UPDATE POSTED 04/24/2018: Getting ready to set a quit date and begin again :)
