Anyway so, chest hurts, coughing up green snot, throat hurts, ear bleeds, both ears hurt, headache...yeah, not fun.

Go to the doctor. Rx: vibramycin, advair, levall, hydrocodone syrup for the cough at night, finish taking the amoxicillin she called in for me last week, and keep taking my other drugs, including the flonase.

[Eek!]

And I have to work tomorrow morning. sheesh!

Bummer! Being sick sucks. Of course, so does having to work with people, but still.

Hope you feel better and enjoy your new job. [Group Hug]

I think half the country is sick right now. I've been sick for a week. I work at a restaurant at probably half the servers and half the kitchen staff are sick too. And they don't let anyone really have the day off. Think about that when you eat at a restaurant in the next couple weeks [Smile]

I hope you feel better soon. I've been sick for weeks, but seem to be on the mend now, though you can't tell to listen to me. I'm still hacking and sneezing, but at least I'm not throwing up anymore. That was awful.

I hope they cut you some slack on your new job. And that your hubby is helping out a lot at home. With little kids, it's hard to get enough rest, but you'll need it. [Group Hug]

Miserable. [Frown]

Still coughing, shakey (doc says that's probably the advair and not to worry too much) and goofy from the meds.

At one point the phone rang and I answered it with the name of the company I worked for last year. AFTER I had already looked at the caller ID and saw it was my boss! Boy, did I feel dumb!

It's fairly quiet here at work though. That helps.

Edit: because I hit post too soon.

Hope you feel better!

A lot of people are sick, my husband worked at the fire station last night and they made 13 calls, and all of them were on some type of sickie (as opposed to say, trauma calls) He said there is a ton of virus infections out there affecting folks.

He's afraid he's bringing it all home to us, because our kids are staying sick over the last few weeks. We have sore throats, fevers, sinus infections, all kinds of fun stuff at the homefront right now.

My first day of class is Saturday - I'm praying I stay well enough to go.
