Immuno-deficient

[zahryn]

Deep Joy, I woke up this morning and could neither see, nor speak. The back of my throat felt like it'd been sewn shut, and attempting to put tea down it didn't help. I called work right away, croaked to Kathryn who said absolutely not to go in today, then I called the Doctor and got in to see Dr West first thing, Dad drove me there and came in with me because I couldn't see.

I have now had another shot in the bum for the pain and nausea, am on anti-biotics for the tonsillitis and have a course of 'Sumatriptan' for the on-going migraine issues. The sumatriptan stuff is good, I took my first 50mg tablet at the surgery at 9am, came home and it's now 10:15am, the eye oddity has cleared up, the headache is gone and (apart from the migraine hangover and sore throat) all I have left is a delightful "special" brownie feeling.

For now though, I am going back to bed to try and sleep my way through as much of this as possible.

Good news is that I am home alone today, mum and dad have gone to Beths for the day.

Oh, man. I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks, the new drugs have made all but the migraine hangover go away, I feel quite dopey and tired, but the pain is mostly gone, the new meds are even strong enough to take away some of the rib pain which is really nice. *hugs

Shit! Was the eye thing something to do with the migraine, do you think? The tonsillitis would explain the croakiness of the last week or two though. *huggles*

Yes, I think it was, and so does the doc, thankfully the new drugs have taken care of most all of the symptoms, the painkiller has even been good enough to take away some of the throat and ribs pain which is really nice, although wearing a bra is a bit much yet.

For some reason I'm also doing the gasping thing and yawning a lot which is a bit different. *snuggles
