Almost Self-Reliant
I've been under the weather for about a month and a half. I got pneumonia about four weeks ago (4th time for me), and I think that it left me with pleurisy. I carry a chest pain that a real hummer sometimes. Since my energy level is in the tank and has been for weeks, the doctor ran some tests and found out that I was deficient in vitamin D. So - I'm wondering if there is any general lighting besides plain old florescent out there that I could put in some areas of the house in order to pick up some "D"? We use florescent lighting throughout the house anyway so I have that covered. I'm told that it puts out a little "D" along the way.
I have looked around on the net some and found some home UV lights for $230 dollars or so. Might have to break into the wife's egg money for that one.
Oh, BTW, Saturday I came down with this terrible flu. It has hung on until the present, but I'm getting better. It wouldn't surprise me if it wasn't the H1N1. I'm told that they don't even check for it around here anymore, because the treatment for it is like any other flu so it's a guess, but boy is it a doozy!
Any ideas on the pleurisy?
