  • Oh Well…


    That’s pretty much how I feel at the moment.  I went back to the doctor yesterday because the pain in my head was so bad that I couldn’t take it anymore.   He said that I have the worst case of sinusitus that he’s ever seen and that if I’m not feeling 100% better in 2 weeks that he wants me to come back in for a CT of my sinuses.  The theory here is that because I have chronic sinusitus and have for a few years now that I’ve developed a great deal of scar tissue in my sinuses and that is making it very difficult to get the swelling down when there is an infection.  Also, the inner sinus cavity can harbor fungus when someone has chronic sinusitis and will trigger a common cold into a severe infection. 


    In other words…I’m a mess!!


    We’ll see how it goes…but for now, at least the major aching pain that was radiating throughout my sinuses and jaw has subsided a bit.  I spent yesterday in bed for the most part…and I think that helped as well.  I’m back at work today, but to be honest…I’d rather be at home in bed still.


    Thank you all for your get well wishes…I appreciate it very much!!


    Well…Happy Hump Day!!   and I hope that you are having a good week!!

  • i completely understand not wanting to go to work when your feeling down.  i was kinda sick this morning :(  and for some strange reason i thought i was feeling a little better to come into work.  but now that i’m here i’m kinda thinking that i should have stayed home.

    oh well.  hope everything gets better with you :)

  • Yuck! Hope you feel better soon. A script for a Z-pac usually works for me from my EN&T doc..  zithromax.. 10 days worth of meds in 5 days (2 pills/1pill/1/1/1) and I feel like a champ again!
