I'm glad you're still sober and wish you well on the biopsy! Hopefully COVID won't be too bad.

Lily - I'm sorry you're having those health issues.
I agree - staying clear headed is what we need to do during times like these. (I once felt just the opposite. )
Congrats on your sobriety.

Glad you're staying sober. Dealing with scary medical issues is bad, but it's so much worse while drinking... anesthesia doesn't work properly when your liver is in drinking mode, not to mention the generally toxic effects alcohol has on your body. Sorry you're going through this, but I'm glad you're not doing it drunk!

Get well soon with the COVID and best wishes with your bone marrow procedure.
I like your determination to remain sober during what I can imagine will be stressful times.

Sorry to hear about the bone marrow biopsy. Sounds scary. I am glad you are not going to drink over it. Well done!

I managed to dodge it for 30+ months, but I also currently have Covid. Biggest issue thus far is impact to my sleep. I am taking 150% of the recommended dose for OTC cold meds and it won't clear my sinuses. Hard to use a CPAP without a functioning nose! Slept about 4 hours/night last 2 nights in my reclining chair so I could sit partially upright. That seemed to help a little.

Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Thank you all so much for your kind words, sorry I haven't been around in the last few days, fighting covid floored me
been sleeping a lot I have to wait until I get the appointment for the bone marrow biopsy , I need to get the all clear from covid as well before I can go out my partner is feeling better it didn't affect him as bad, but I think It's because i was unwell beforehand, I have to watch i don't catch it again from anyone
sitting in the living room watching TV with warm duvet over me will update soon
