Cold be gone, already!

I had my weekly evaluation by my Radiation Oncologist and she feels that I am showing signs of skin changes although I haven't really noticed anything myself and luckily haven't felt anything.  There is definitely more edema which she seemed a little concerned about but to me it is my new normal, but I guess if it gets any worse I'll have to reach out to Maureen, the miracle worker when it comes to treating lymphedema.  I'm hoping it doesn't get to that point because I feel like I just don't have enough time in the day to go for treatment or I may be feeling that way because I'm sleep deprived, which I think may be causing some impatience.


I know there are many people who have been battling the same bad cold I have for several weeks now and even though I'm on antibiotics and feel better I can't get rid of this annoying cough which is waking me up in the middle of the night and keeping me up.  It is a horrible hacking cough that makes me feel like I can't catch my breath at times and it has kept me up for the past 3 nights!  I'm ready for a peaceful and restful night of sleep!!
