She has been having a bad bug or reaction (I'll explain in a sec) and we're going in today to see what's up. Chest congestion, sinuses going crazy, achy, feeling very "blah".
I mentioned reaction as when we went up to Seattle to start taking care of Dad's estate we went to the house (picture "Hoarders") and I took many pics (should have used the "movie" selection on the camera).
In the kitchen and in the living room there were bags of oats, split open and the oats spilling out onto the floor. (Why in the living room? Unless . . . [follow up coming])
Silver is highly allergic to oats (I'm pretty sure she has mentioned that here) and we have even had to leave a motel room (Best Western) because they had oatmeal soap. As the soap would dry, the powder went every where.
So, the sibling living in Dad's house (rent free I might add) told Silver, "Just step over it." Uhhhh, you've got a dog who has wandered through the oats and sits on the couch, expects to be petted, etc. spreading the oat flour!!!
So, hopefully the doc will be able to do something for here as she has been miserable.

OH wow. I hope you didn't have to stay there very long.
It's just so hard for me to imagine that some people live like that.
I do SO HOPE the doctor can help Silver get over this. I'm sure she's quite ill from it. I know I would be!

Hi <<<<< TxC', and Lymetoo >>>>>,
At the very least,according to my PCP,the mess has caused bronchitis, so back on Bactrim this evening, w/ Children's Bendryl,to keep the headaches and itchiness away.
There is still concern about the Kleb. pneu. so this should help both issues. Doc' is wondering if the Kleb.P'. colonized. I guess the ID doc will get to figure that out,first week of Nov.
We have to go back to Seattle at some point, will be going into storage units and house,w/ a mask,so as not to breathe particles in the air.
Sadly much of the house had black mold growing on walls and windows as well. Scary stuff,to say the least. So sad,as it shouldn't have gotten to this point.
Thanks for the kind tho'ts Lymetoo,and for putting the topic here, TxCoord love. The whole mess makes me feel ill,just from all the emotions,let alone, allergen triggers.

Hello <<<<< me ,bluelyme, Lymetoo, and randibear >>>>>,
Bactrim, yeah...uhm not fun... in the bathroom most of yesterday and last night. Will try half dose today,as I have to do something.Doc' is worried as I don't really have any more options right now.
Have to find something 'Madicaid' will pay for, they don't spring for much. We discussed w/ Doc'[non LLMD] and if i have anymore seizure type activity, go to the hospital,and insist they EEG.
Don't know if the Bronchitis would tip it,but the darn Bactrim might.
We do have to travel back at some point, to the house, but may have to look into, a tarp canopy type situation out front. I'd chance the storage units, if masked.
Attorney,has some folk in mind to help,and get the house ready, they wont steal us blind.Unlike the 'tenant' who is removing who knows what and was spotted taking things out. Hopefully only things they can prove are theirs.
Warnings have gone out, it is considered theft if 'tenant' removes anything not provably theirs.Sadly things are a mess,and this is difficult.
I don't like having to go back but this is necessary sadly.
Plus, as if we needed more[ uh... meanwhile back at the ranch] the VA is trying to reject TxCoords issues again,and phone calls come in saying his appt.s are cancelled and then he is griped at for not keeping them.
Add teh laptop, not cooperating andwe'd like to get off the merry-go-round and on to a gentelr ride. Sorry the thing is goofy right now.

Jus' Silverwolfi here,
Our little laptop was infected w/ a virus, got cleaned today, so hopefully it will respond better now.
It was rearranging sentences and words,and moving them part way down page,and then freezing.
So we'll see if it behaves better than it was.
I am seeming to respond better w/ a half dose of the Bactrim,speaking of 'behaving'. So we'll see how it goes.

Great news on the computer! So glad maybe it won't be giving you so much trouble!
Keep on getting better, OK?

Hi <<<<< Lymetoo >>>>>,
Yes,it is running a bit better now, running slightly slow still,but it may be just showing it's age.
I am working on getting better, had to cut my dosage in half,so I don't have to live in the restroom.
Doing what I can,and resting a lot,is the order of the day,for now.
Laptops, TxC' is working on a new to us, second laptop,we got, for a reasonable price, from the place that worked on this one. If this one fails, hopefully it can be the backup.
Hated to spend it,but we need quick access to our attorney,as things are being removed from the estate, illegally. A court order is being ignored... it could get really interesting.
It is a shame,but we'll see what happens,going to court, can be expensive. It will come out of the 'tenants' funding not us,or our part of the estate. If the tenant wakes up and smells the coffee, so to speak maybe it can be resolved sooner.
Hard dealing w/ all the mess with Lyme and Co's and an infection besides, am just trying to keep up. TxCoord is good to take as much of the burden as possible.
So that is how things stand right now.
Jus' Silverwolfi
