Anyone else sick & tired of coughing, choking & sometimes sneezing in the middle of trying to eat? Eating has become such a chore that I'm not all that excited about it & actually skip meals which doesn't help with the weight gain, I've actually gone backwards a couple of lbs. lately. Tired of eating the same foods, although I can eat everthing now, it's just such hard work to wash it down & choke, etc. Guess I'm just having a low spot mentally. I've been back to work some lately, picking & choosing what I do. Being self employed I can do that. I'm confused about what I should do for a living, go back to what I was doing before or go in a different direction. I'm rambling, sorry. Feeling kinda lost lately. I think I'd go crazy without these boards to read. This damn disease makes you look at everything so differently its hard to sort out whats important & whats trivial in the new life.
