 Just wanted to thank those of u that responded to my last entry and your show of concern and support. I still can’t sleep much, maybe catch an hour or two on the couch, but when I go to bed, my mouth gets real dry and my throat, and I start to cough and clear my throat for my hours. Water does nothing for me or honey cough drops. I also have Biotene mouth wash for dry mouth and the oral balance gel. No luck with those either. I’m so tired and weak. I think if I feel this bad tomorrow,  I’m going to the er. I think there is something going on with my lungs and /or heart. Maybe both. I googlrd congestive heart failure and have all the symptoms.  My legs are swelled from fluid and extreme shortness of breath..I have no faoth in doctors since I have ne er had one yet that has done me any good. If I had the strength and time, I could tell u about some of the horror   stories I have had with doctors and hospitals. But, the way it looks now, I don’t seem to have much chance of getting better on my own. Once again, ty for your kind notes.
