U B Illin’
so remember that lil’ ol’ cold I was complaining about?
well after things flared up again, and a week’s worth of hacking up lovely greenies, I was talking to a nurse at the studio last night and she pushed me to go see the doctor.
so i made an appointment at Nighttime RightTime (as it’s now called) this morning, the brand spankin’ new one at arundel mills.
turns out, i was just a wee bit sicker than I thought. After the doc listened to my wheezing, she immediately gave me steroids (not THOSE kind), then hooked me up to some breathing machine for 20 minutes so I could inhale all this stuff to get the swelling down in my lungs. freaky.
Final diagnosis? An Ear Infection, a Sinus Infection, and topped off by Bronchitis.
I’m now on two different antibiotics (at the same time, apparently that’s kosher), the ‘roids, and also an inhaler. It’s a freakin’ pharmacy at my house now.
She told me that the ‘roids are gonna make me grumpy. and to get bed rest. whatever that is. I guess I’ll only go down to working 60 hours next week. I was pretty whatever about the whole deal, and in good spirits. which she said she was surprised by given “how bad off I was.” ummm, ok. that’s not what u wanna hear from the doc.
so bring me chicken noodle soup if you’re reading this. or a cheeseburger. yeah, go with the latter.
