Another blip

I found myself in A&E again last night when my neighbours decided It would be a good idea to have yet another giant bonfire. Despite closing the windows the smoke found its way into the house via the air-bricks, and my lungs began to suffer. Despite ridiculous amounts of salbutamol I couldn't get on top of it and so had to go back to A&E. I was seen pretty quickly, almost straight into triage and then assess by a nurse and given salbutamol and atrovent nebs, which fixed me pretty quickly. I the had quite a long wait to see a doctor, who gave me another neb as the tightness was starting to return before letting me go home. I was a little worried about going home as the initial nebs hadn't lasted 4hours but I did feel fine, and admissions seem result in me getting worse before I get better, so off I went.

I didn't sleep well and I woke up feeling breathless and tight chested a couple of times, but managed to get more or less on top of it with my inhaler. I've spent most of today in my PJ's having a duvet day as I just don't have enough puff to do much else, but at least I'm home and getting lots of puppy cuddles.
