Back to Work with Pneumonia

This was my first week back in the office.  Today was my third day physically in the office.  It' been much harder than I expected.

I thought that as long as I dressed warm, I would be OK.  But the dressing warm was the least of it.  I'm finding I need a nap a few hours into the day.  I'm totally drained.  And the worst, hardest part was walking up and down the stairs at the train station.  Who would have thought?

I guess I didn't think.  Duh.  Pneumonia is about lung capacity and function.  Walking down the stairs, across the tunnel and up another set during the morning rush in the freezing cold is a lot.

Today, when I got to the top of the stairs, I had a chest pain.  Bad.  Like I was going to fall to the ground and die.  Brutal.  Old age sucks.  So does pneumonia.

I work from home on Thursday and I am going in for another set of xrays.  I will definitely need to update my doctor on this.  Sucks to be me.
