compliance

[SaltyAndSweet]

How compliant am I? It is hard to say because I am sure my docs would love for me to do more treatments, more nebs, and have antibiotics more often, but they know me. They know how much I am willing to tolerate and so we agree as a team what I am willing/able/told/demanded to do which may be less then ideal. So, I would probably rate as a 9 now on compliance, but I am sure I could always do more!

But that is now. When I was 5-25, I had a bit of denial and just wanted to be like my friends and I'd rate myself a 3 because I never listened to my docs until I was REALLY sick and needed IVs. If I didn't feel an immediate improvement I didn't do it.

If you add in exercise, diet and coughing technique then I am probably a 7. I don't exercise right now because I am too tired from work (that will change with part time), I eat well (not alot of junk foods), but I cough very old school. Its hard to stop a coughing fit and huffing just makes me cough. That I need to work on.

Nowadays I am a 9.9999 on my pills, 9.99 on my nebs and vest, an 8 on my excercise, but am still working on remembering to do my coughing excercises between settings on my vest.

I am also working on doing my nasal rinses twice a day- maybe a 7 now? I wish I'd remember more- they do make me feel better.

In the sleep department, I'm a 6 or 7 lately, too- I've got to work on that.

I feel so much better during the day when I do my nebs, vest and medicine that I am adamant now about getting my treatments in.

Oh! I know- I am a 10 on neb cleaning- dirty nebs freak me out and scare me as possibly being counterproductive *shudders* lol <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif" border="0"> .

I am extremely compliant when it comes to anything that is prescribed to me. As I get older the number of treatments a day increases. I'm now up to 3 treatments/day. (vest/nebs) I definitely rate myself a 10 here, from birth to the present. (even through college!)

I am not the most healthful eater. I'm a meat and potatoes kind of girl with the occasional vegetable and fruit. I also like sweets and cereals. So as far as diet goes, I'm closer to a 7, maybe less.

As far as exercise goes, I'm currently doing very well. In fact I just got back from a work out at the park. (did you hear that chags?!) <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0"> There was a lapse in exercise though, for the last 4 years. Notice, the age of my twins...so from the time I got pregnant to 2008, I didn't do any exercise on purpose. I guess i was a 0.
