Good Morning from chilly central NY. Was just wondering how everyone is doing these days.

I finally got my approval for disability retirement from work and tomorrow is my "official" retirement date. It took several months but it means I get my pension and retiree health insurance rate (opposed to Cobra).

Had pneumonia about 3 weeks ago,no hospitalization this time. Still wheezy and phlegmy early mornings.

Rad doctor took me off the med the heart dr prescribed as it made my blood pressure too low. I still get the dizziness/vertigo but not like before.

Still waiting for my hair to come back!

Hope everyone is doing well.
