The middle of last week I started feeling off- very fatigued, no appetite, losing weight. I went to the doctor on Tuesday and she did blood work and I had a chest X-ray and abdominal ultrasound. At the time she set a follow up appt for Thursday. She called me on Wed and asked me to come in that same day. That of course freaked me out.

My liver numbers were crazy high but fortunately no sign of tumors or anything so she suspected hepatitis. Further testing confirmed it is typeA. It's the least serious in that it doesn't become chronic. It's viral so no real cure- just rest, fluids and eating, and time.

I've read the symptoms can last weeks or- please no!- months. I still have no strength and taking a shower is a major accomplishment. Dear hubs has been amazing; he is waiting on me like crazy and trying to find foods to entice me to eat. He does make a very good milkshake!

I've had surgery and that recovery and certainly flus or colds, but I've never been seriously ill. To all of a sudden come to a crashing halt of everything, because I physically can't do anything was shocking. I'm rarely away from work and there's just no way I can even think about it.
Anyway, sorry so long. Just hoping to gather whatever good vibes and prayers for healing might be out there!
