I went to the doctor this morning. I don't have Strep but I didn't think I did. She said there is something definitely going on as my throat is red, my glands are swollen and there appears to be some wheezing in the right side of my chest. But she can't be sure if it's viral or an infection of some sort. She sent me home with a load of medicine. I'm on an antibiotic, plus she said take Advil every four hours, cough syrup with codeine and an inhaler every 4-6 hours as needed. And rest. Wow...
My sister-in-law was also home sick today so when I got home we watched a movie and then about 1pm I headed downstairs for a nap. I woke up about 3:30pm. I've just been sleeping the week away but I guess I need it. I told Sandy that I feel guilty staying home from work all week. She said it just because I'm never sick and I don't know who to be sick. She's right. I'm not usually sick for more than one day. I have to keep telling myself it's okay to stay home. And since I just got dizzy sitting here typing this I think she's right!
You'd think a person who's been home all week from work would be able to get something done around home. Or get some studying done (I'm WAY behind!)...but I can't seem to stay awake long enough to do anything.
A BIG thanks to my friend, Slim, for taking me to the doctor this morning. You know I love you.....
