Sick again.

Not the Led Zeppelin song....

Thanksgiving was a success, despite the snafus.

Tomorrow is my follow up breast cancer testing.  Please keep a good thought.

Meantime?  I am sick again...this time, it's pretty bad, so Dave is taking me to a convenient care doc in a box this morning.

I need antibiotics this time, dammit.

Started with a tickly cough on Thursday night, then during the day Friday, I started to feel worse and worse.  By Friday afternoon, I was full-on miserable, with a fever, headache, and sort throat.  Thankfully, because of the bad weather, we left work early.

Friday night, my throat felt so painful and swollen that it felt like my air way was cutting off, so I couldn't breathe.  That was fun...I needed to sleep, but was up all night.
But by late Saturday morning, that swollen feeling was easing off, so I slept most of the day Saturday.  Had barely any voice, but it didn't matter, because I stayed in bed almost all day.

The fever has been up and down, up and down.  Slept much better last night,  but now my sinuses are full and painful, with green discharge.

SO who knows what the hell that was at the start, with the swollen throat, but there was never any sign of white spots back up in there.  I asked Dave to look.

It's obviously a sinus infection now, at any rate, and that requires antibiotics.  It's been a long time since I've needed any, so I am glad about that.  Sometimes, though, you have to use them.  Ick.

At least when I was sick for 2 weeks in Sept/Oct, it never got this bad.
