Just that, really. I'm so relieved! I have COPD and ME-CFS, which gives me 'flu' for about half the time ... until this year, when I've had 'flu' ever since Christmas. Been feeling like one of the left-behind zombies for months. My blood oxygen's been hovering in the very low 90s and I was starting to wonder if this was the Beginning Of The End.

Well, The End is still a few years away! I even managed to walk to the shops 🥳 (it's not very far, but still). Did my breathing exercise and got it up to 98, which is as good as it's been for years. I just wanted to tell somebody!

... and breathe (most appropriately!)

That's good. Happy for you. It's such a shitty illness so definitely do all the breathing exercises etc as they can help a little.
