I woke up this morning at 7am and felt like someone was smothering me. I could not breathe. I started grabbing Ian to wake him up and he was scrambling to get my oxygen on me. When I checked my oxygen, it was 68. It should be above 92. I went to my sisters last night and when I got home, I told Ian that it was the best I have felt in a while. Then I wake up to this. It scared me to death. I have tried all day to get off the oxygen and as soon as I take it off, it falls quickly. I will call the doctor tomorrow and see what she says. But, I am very discouraged. I did not want to have to be on this oxygen ever again. I don't know if it's fluid again or if I have an infection because I am still running a fever. I am praying that it is not fluid and maybe I just need a stronger antibiotic. Please pray that it is nothing too serious. I am anxious to know what is wrong. I feel like I take one step forward and two steps back.

Praying for you right now Kelly. Praying for more of those feel good moments! We love you and our so encouraged by your strength, even on the days you don't feel so strong. Praying for a good nights sleep as well.
ReplyDeletePraying Kel. Boy that sounds scary. I'm so glad that you have Ian and a great support around you. Most importantly, I am grateful that you have the support from our loving Father. I am praying for peace while waiting for the answers. Love you.
ReplyDeleteKelly...I cannot imagine the panic you felt..but I pray that you can find a peaceful/calm place where anxiety cannot go. Put on your nurse's cap. Talk to yourself like you would a patient. Try to visualize the oxygen as a good thing, not as something that represents defeat. I am praying that the docs can find out the root of your fever and of this lack of oxygen. Focus on the kids and starting school....try to get your mind on other things. I know all of this "advice" is easy for me to say and so much harder for you to do, but...know how much I love you and am praying for God to give you the strength to get throught this day. I love you!!
