I was diagnosed with my very first sinus infection yesterday! I've had a chronic cough for about a month now but the last 2 weeks it had been getting really bad. Then I started getting low grade fevers. Finally this week my throat was so sore from all the coughing that I lost my voice!!! I left work early and went to see Dr. Casalman. And she diagnosed me. I've never had allergies before but she said if there was ever a season for allergies in Las Vegas its now. I guess I didn't notice and it became an infection. Just my luck! I'm now home with a Z-Pak and Codeine.
On the bright side the meds let me sleep.

Ugh... Yes it is the season for allergies, breathing problems and sinus infections. Gack!!! With all of the rain we had in January, EVERYTHING is blooming in full force right now. I hope you start feeling better soon. You might consider getting a Netti Pot from the drug store (walgreens or CVS). It's weird, and kinda gross, but it helps to flush the Yuck out.
ReplyDeleteOh no, sinus infection! I have chronic sinus infection and now I have an inner ear infection. I know how you feel. Try the Netti Pot :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I actually have a nettie pot and I love it!!! Its the best thing ever. I'm feeling much better now and will be in class friday cough free, but with an ear infection! Yay ... things just come one after another.
