Hi my friends

[lonote]

Well I haven't been on too much lately, so i'll update you whats been going on. First of all, I'm off suboxone now. And I have a new doctor. Last week I was hospitalised. My asthma is worse. I think its copd. I swear its from doing pain pills and smoking more than normal, cuz they'd just taste so darn good while under the influence. So I damaged my lungs. The last couple months have been a dtruggle, quitting smoking, all the coughing involved in that and 11 office visits and 4 e.r. visits later they finally put me in and gave me aggressive peritsone to help get myself right. So now I have to take off sone pounds and get healthy, cuz so much shty stuff can kill you and i don't want to die before my time. But, I'm thinking of all of you and those struggling, I'm in your corner, wherther I know you or not.  Anyways I'm alittle scared. Take care. Talk to me....Cathy

Wow, hun! You have been through some tough times lately, I had no idea.  I am so glad to hear you are on the mend now, though.  Congrats on quitting smoking, thats awesome.  Im thinking of you and you are in my prayers, I know you are a strong lady and will get through this and live a long life.  You have too many people who love you and need you not to.  

Take good care and where the H is everyone???

How have you been doing?   Cathy  P. s. with quitting smoking and some exercize this spring, i'm hopeful to slow the lung disease down or not let it get any worse. Thanks hon!!

Hi Cathy, gosh it looks like you are the only one left out of the original group that started with this forum, huh?  I am not any better than the rest of them, I have not been around either.  I really cannot seem to get the hang of this new forum - I think it is harder to see who has answered the posts, I don't know.  Sorry to hear that you have had such a hard time lately.  Take care.

Love, Cindy

Sure is strange. Now that I've quit smoking I really want to eat. I bought these rice cakes tomatoe herb to munch on when I get the munchies in the middle of the night. The predisone really makes me hungry and I have to make better choices. I can do it though. I want to live!    Cathy

whats funny, is you smoke more than normal, I eat certain things when im high, for example, i LOVE to go to KFC and right after i have taken the pills. i have certain other places i go to eat, strange huh?
