Been a while

I have not been well for the past several weeks. I started out with the usual cold-and-fever symptoms. Had a lot of breathing difficulties. After 3-4 days of self medication, I had to go to the hospital. They did X Rays and a CT Scan and diagnosed Pneumonia. Apparently some food particles had gone into my lungs. I stayed there for a week. The immediate issue has been sorted out, I think. However, I have to be extra careful in future while swallowing and eating. I have had a visit from the speech pathologist who also monitors swallowing. I am now supposed to meet with a dietician.

Bye for now. Just thought I would update this since I am now well enough to sit at a computer.
