Sometimes you've got to feel worse...

...before you feel better (and sometimes you look like you've gotten stung by a swarm of killer bees).

Hey Ronnie! Hope you start feeling much better soon. I'm sure the tune-up will have you full of beans in no time! ;oD
Hope the haemoptysis clears up itself up but if you do end up having an embolisation, don't worry (Don't know if you've had one before?) I had one a year ago. I was a bit scared because I didn't know what to expect but it was really easy, just a tiny bit of chest pain after, but for me personally it was hardly any and it sorted all my haemoptysis out so I could go back to playing football!
Take care,
Frances (from London)

Thanks for the common Frances. I've actually had to embolization's and each time they stop the bleeding for an extended period of time. I'm not at all opposed to having another one, but only want the procedure done if I need it. I'm really looking forward to putting these lungs to the test!

Praying for a full recovery from the hemoptasis. (sp?) I admire you so much for showing us the good, bad and ugly of CF in such a vulnerable manner. Helps the rest of us know what to expect!

Hope you are feeling better in a hurry. I have had no internet for 3 days and have felt so out of touch with the world. Isn't that pathetic!! I pray that the bleeding clears up on it's own too.

Hey Ronnie,

Just to let you know my sister and I also feel sick for about three with the same symptoms as you describe and start to felt better usually the fourth day (when starting meeds). It sometimes hurts to wash or comb my hair.

Thinking of you and Mandi,
PS looks like a nice hospital room!!

I know it sound weird but try to enjoy the down time:-)

Thanks for the update Ronnie, we missed you guys on Wednesday night at small group. We are praying for you both, can't wait to hear if you and Mandi will be parents in the next 9 months or so. Praying the tune up is quick and effective and that you both are back in Chandler and back to small group, you are both missed!
