Sleep deprivation

Have woken up every 1 - 2 hours last night, either due to attacks of asthma or having to reload the washing machine in order to prevent its water pipe from freezing. (it is idiotically planned and done and not by us.) We have been hitting the cold records of this winter daily; thanks God the water pipes are not frozen yet!

I don't know how long I can go on like this: asthma shows no signs of improvement, I wake up due to it, can't sleep... I feel I am typing half-asleep, soon sleeping while sitting... they want to examine the thyroid still, must go to lab once more on Monday. Must go back to bed, I am sleepy and falling off the chair! And once I hit the pillow, the coughing starts again...
