Any March Sleevers?

[busybeingme 112]

The day I started my preop diet I also got sick. It has been 15 days and I'm still sick!!! My sis in law is going to school to be a N.D. So I got lots of suggestions from her and everyone else I know. I have done it all!!! Here is the list of things I've been doing

1. 1000 Vitamin C daily

2. Gargle with 1cup warm Water and 1/4 tsp salt 3-4 times daily

3. Saline nasal spray or netty pot

4. Lots of liquid!!! Hydrate

5. Airborne

6. Steep real ginger in boiling water for 30 minutes add honey and drink.

7. Rest

8. "Throat Coat" tea. It tastes amazing!!! And is supposed to be good for sore throats!

I hope this helps. I have been freaking out as well. My fever' date=' cough, congestion all went away about a week ago. So I'm good for surgery. My sore throat is lingering. My family doctor said this virus is really sticking around in people.

I just got over mine and yesterday I started again with a cough! I have two weeks left but I'm still worried! This year it the virus is stilling around and coming back for a double attack on most people...

Thanks for the tips! Feel better all!

I am having second thoughts and a really down morning. I am doing this without any local support so I am turning to you all. What creative prep talks have you all either given yourselves or were given by your support? I tell myself it will be worth it, one day at a time, you can't keep living this unhealthy, etc but this morning, it isn't working and I am ready to call it off.

I think having second thoughts is normal. This is major surgery and a decision not to be taken lightly.

Personally I am not scared of the surgery, but of failing myself to commit to the changes and challenges I will be required to make.

I am a person of faith, and I believe that I can handle and do all that will be required with The Lord on my side.

Not having a support system is difficult, please message me if you need to discuss anything.

When are you scheduled for surgery?
