This past year and a half has not been my forte when it comes to staying well! Still, I am much better than last year working at the daycare, aka the germ factory.

Sick, Sick, Sick
I woke up Tuesday morning with a sore throat and a runny nose, more runny than usual that is ;) and I felt off somehow. Sam had a sore throat too. I came home early from work that day. Sam's sore throat had gone away thank goodness but mine was still present, and my nose was showing signs of a sinus infection. The next day, Wednesday, I became really dizzy, more than I've ever remembered feeling, but the feeling passed and Sam took me to my doctor's appt. Got on some antibiotics that afternoon, and also developed the first signs of a congested cough and a higher fever than earlier that day. So, needless to say my sinus infection has turned into bronchitis (I think) and I have been home since Tuesday afternoon. Sam's been my good little buddy and helping me out; and I am sooo thankful he hasn't caught anything from me. I spray Lysol on pretty much everything I touch.

Be very careful! Did they do a blood test to rule out swine flu? Hope you feel better.
They did do a blood test on me, a standard cbc, to check my white cell blood count. I'm not on a very strong antibiotic since I am allergic to a few of the strong ones in the penicillin family. I may go back into the doctor's tomorrow to go for a stronger antibiotic and may just have to take benadryl with it in case of an allergic reaction. No cases of swine flu yet in Idaho expect maybe one in Boise, from a woman in her 60s who had recently visited Texas. I just have a nasty predisposition of having my sinus infections leading to chest infections. But we're being careful; I've barely touched Sam in the past few days except an occasional touch on the arm and whenever he's touched something that I've touched I remind him to go wash his hands. Plus Lysol-ing everything :)
Aunt Kelly, I hope you feel much much much better. I love you, your niece Sarah. P.S. I think your pictures are hilariously funny.
Hope you feel better soon!!
Thank you each for the get well wishes! (And I'm glad you liked my pics Sarah!) I went to the doctor yesterday and he prescribed my avelox, a stronger antibiotic not in the penicillin family. I was put on it a few years ago when I had pneumonia and it worked. The doctor also gave me an inhhaler too. Yay for medicine!
