That's what I get for wanting a social life. I go out in public and get exposed to all those germs. Well, I can't be a hermit all my life, I guess. Though sometimes that seems preferable.
My doctor loaded me with samples, and gave me a prescription for Amoxycillin. I can expect a couple days of nausea before my GI tract decides to accept that foreign substance.
I guess I can handle a little nausea if it will stop the incessant coughing. My chest hurts. My ribs hurt. My throat hurts. Oh, BTW: I've found a wonderful throat lozenge. My doctor asked me if I wanted some cough syrup, and I told him "No, I don't want any codeine." The lozenge brand is Ricola. It comes in several flavors, but I prefer the "Natural Herb Cough Drops." They taste good, soothe the throat, and help ease the cough.
Oh, yes, and the dear man is always flipping through the records and looking for something that needs doing this year. I get to have a colonoscopy this year. Well, not this year, exactly. More like right away. I really don't mind the procedure, although it's a little uncomfortable, and definitely embarrassing having my bum sticking bare-out. What I really hate is the prep. And I'm not going into that. Anyone who has ever had a colonoscopy knows what I'm talking about.
The last time I had this procedure done, the doctor positioned the screen so I could see what was going on inside me. Maybe this other doctor will do the same. It's interesting. But then I suppose (past and present) nurses find things interesting that turn off other people.

Got new vetical blinds installed today. When I was taking down a curtain in the spare bedroom (aka junk room), I noticed that part of the wall is about to peel off. Make Note: Call manager in the morning.

Well, duckies, it's been a tiring day. Think I'll go take a nap before NCIS comes on at 9pm. If I'm still awake at the end of the program I'll go to bed. Otherwise I'll sleep in my recliner. I plan on spending most of tomorrow in bed, and hope plenty of rest and medications will knock out this bronchitis.
Shalom
