jeriendhalLast Friday: Ate lunch at work, which sat rather uncomfortably. One hour later I went home to nap, pick up the kids, then nap some more. With a temperature of 100.6 I figured i had the flu again.
Saturday: Spent day sleeping, with breaks to pee, eat toast, and drink Sprite. High temperature 103.
Sunday: Spent the morning sleeping, and finally dig myself out of bed to go to the Minute Clinic. When I get there, they listen to my lungs and tell me to go to the emergency clinic NOW. One X-ray later I've got a diagnosis of a respiratory infection and a perscription for clarithomycin.
Monday: More fever. More sleeping. Except I start developing a nasty pain in my air that sends me back to the Minute Clinic. Diagnosis: Water behind my ear drum. I get another prescription for painkillers for my ear.
That don't work. Cue much agony and not much sleep.
Tuesday: Finally get my primary physician, who switches me to Levaquin for my lungs, and anti-biotic drops for my ear because it's actually infected.
Wednesday, Thursday: Back to work. Throat still raspy so at least I'm kept off the phones.
Friday: Back to my primary for a followup. Turns out I actually had pneumonia all this time. And a canker sore on the side of my throat, making me talk like Baron Greenback.
I think I'm going to rest some more.
