About 8:00 last night (after going upstairs to get a Harry Potter book and choking for 5 minutes), I told Jon that I wanted to go to the E.R. NOW.Â? We went in and thankfully the doc that knows me best was on call.Â? All I had to do was have him examine me and tell him that my peak flow was 300 (about 60% of what my norm is) and he got me hooked up to a nebulizer.Â? 10-15 minutes of nebulizer treatment opened everything up again and we were out of there by 9:30.

Right now, I’m doing fairly well — still not able to do a lot physically but that’s due more to the &^%$#%$ smoke from the forest fires west and south of us (ah… summer in Montana) that’s blowing this direction.Â? They gave me some surgical masks to wear for those times when I have to go outside and I have a feeling that I’m going to get some stares while walking to church tomorrow.Â? 😛
