And the one I have now is squarely kicking my butt. I got it 2 days ago, and it seems to have settled in quite nicely. Because I have Valley Fever and a hole in my lung, any cold = 50% more coughing than a normal person. Plus, the diabetes = slower recovery. I will [...]

As I wait to calibrate my sensor and dread my doctor’s appointment tomorrow (for Valley Fever), I thought I’d post a survey. Because I’m curious. And tired. And bored.
