Just need to whine a bit.
Everything from the base of my neck upward hurts. Even my teeth. My voice is gone. I can't breathe. Nose is starting to get chapped. My throat hurts, so I don't feel like eating or drinking, but I need to stay hydrated. Eyes are dry so I'm not wearing my contacts. Damn eyeglasses are sliding down my nose and getting smudged faster since my skin is oily. Taking Cipro means I have to juggle the meds and supplements I usually take even more (Cipro absorption is reduced by iron and other mineral salts). Ran out of Lamictal. Can't take decongestants that are usually pretty effective due to Nardil. Didn't have Mucinex in the medicine cabinet like I thought. Pharmacy charged me twice what I should have paid for the Lamictal the pdoc called in, so I have to go back tomorrow. Pdoc called in 150 mg tablets, so I have to cut them in half to take 75 mg twice a day, and it tastes terrible (remind me not to complain about taking six 25 mg tabs a day). and so on and so on and so on...
Dear God, is this a bitching ten plus? I guess that was more than whining "a bit". Sorry
I hate being sick. Always get more depressed...
