It is high risk for Valley Fever as we had huge storms and dust like I have never seen before.
Crossing my fingers I do not get anything.
What a crazy storm..
IF you do not know about Valley Fever read here. Quite scary actually and many have to be treated for life and it can be deadly if it spreads through the body and some people need surgeries in the lungs etc. Nuts

Spring, I'm still being tested for more fungal things... still thinking I have Valley Fever and YES! After this storm, I don't want to go outside!
After 7 days of diflucan to see if I got better I did as far as the rash/hives... but ended up in the hospital for 4 days with lyme viral menigitis! Spinal tap was positive for it. Now dr. is really stumped as diflucan helped the whatever I have, but yet put me in a horrible herx! (antifungal but also antiparasitic)
I tried to pm you a few days ago.. I'm going to MT tomorrow to visit and get out of this dust bowl. Later!

HI there.
Wow So sorry for your recent issues and hospitalization. Sounds complex and I wonder why all that is happening to you.
If your able to leave for awhile probably smart. Esp if you think you have Valley Fever already..
I hope you figure this all out and yes please PM me. MY box is now cleared out. Enjoy your time away.. And I hope you feel better.
Do you feel better away and out of town?
Talk soon
