Allergies? Really?

Yeah, so I’ve been sick since Monday and had to take off work yesterday because I felt so bad. Sore throat, congestion, difficulty breathing, ear pressure, sneezing, coughing, dry heaving (TMI?) skin boils…OK, so no skin boils, but I wouldn’t doubt I got them next! Anyway, naturally I think I might have the flu or pneumonia since I’m a little more susceptible to it and other lung infections because I had a lung collapse in 2007. I go to the doctor yesterday and am told that I only have an upper respiratory infection and allergies. What?! are you kidding me? I feel like I contracted something only found deep in the Amazon rain forest and you tell me it’s a cold and allergies? :-| OK, so whatever. I started taking the anti-biotic he prescribed me and I’m not feeling much better at all. In fact, it seems like I’ve been trading one symptom for another. Nothing is really clearing up, just trading off. It’s horrible. I feel horrible. :-(
So that’s my update. I think I need a nap. I probably should not have worked today. I felt better this morning, but by the time I got half way through the work day, I crashed.

















I can sympathize with you!
I visited my sister the other day, and they have a cat. By the end of the visit I couldn’t breath, my eyes were swelling up, I was coughing, my chest was tight, I was getting blotches and rashes, and eventually I totally lost my voice. It sucks so bad cause I secrety love kitties and want a hypoallergenic one, but since I can’t, I force myself to hate them.
I didn’t feel better till the next morning. I know it’s not as long term or chronic as what your going thorugh, but it’s a little something. Feel better! Loves you!
Damn, that sounds pretty bad, worse than my minor stuff to be honest. :-S But dogs are better, hehehe, so get a puppy! Loves ya too :-D
