Sick - The state of utter crappiness that I've been feeling for several weeks now. Yeah, that would be me.
I feel off the face of the earth again, but I can't even seem to care that much at this point, it's so bad. I've been trying to stay up on things but failing for the most part.
Remember how I was sick a while back ago? Yeah, well I got better, or I *thought* I got better. Then the side of my face started hurting really bad and it went downhill from there. Long story short and several doctors visits later, I'm battling a massive sinus infection in my maxillary sinus (just above my cheek). I've had 3 shots of steroids and antibiotics, plus I'm on an anti-viral medication and another oral antibiotic.
If it doesn't clear up (by tomorrow he said, but it is slightly better) then I'm going to have to get a CAT scan of my face done to make sure I don't have a polyp or some other sort of blockage in my sinus.
In all the years I've battled colds and sinus infections, I've never had anything that hurt this bad. I've been on Lortab for almost a week and a half now and it barely touches the pain.
And now I feel like I'm going to cough everytime I breathe, but my nose isn't stopped up and I can't blow anything out of my head. Ugh, someone kill me now. My entire head hurts now, not just that side of my face. But the pain isn't as bad, but it is all over now. So I'm at a loss as to what to do. I don't want to go back to the doctor because I don't know if I'm actually getting better or worse.
Anyway.... enough of the biyatching.
I hope everyone is well and I wanted to say that I haven't forgotten folks, I just haven't felt like being on the computer. I literally made myself work in the yard this past weekend because it had to be done. I got the front flowerbed fixed, finally. Craig pulled the crepe myrtle tree out from in front of the living room window and we planted some azalea bushes and these really pretty purple bushes (loropetalum or something or other).
I know it was the last thing I needed to do, but it's starting to get too hot to do anything and I wanted it done. And I'm sure I'm paying the price now by still being sick. Blah.
So many birthdays have passed and lots of fun stuff has gone by and I feel like I've missed it all. :( I miss my online time and I'm sitting here now at work just finishing up for the day.
wive hon, I am going to get your fic done, I promise. I have opened files and closed them everynight. I want some energy, I want to be well!
*ends pity party* I now resume you to your cheerful LJ.
