Sick of Being Sick

Last Monday I went home from work aching all over and with a fever (which of course I didn't discover until I got home) and went right to bed.  Tuesday I didn't feel much better so I stayed home and on Wednesday went to an appointment at the VA, still not feeling all that great. The doctor said it was a viral thing and just has to run the course. Ugh.


Because then it went into my nose and my nose was stuffy as all get out for the next three days, which of course made me nuts.  On Saturday it traveled to the lungs, giving me a cough that sounds like I'm a 2-pack a day smoker.  And today it's still in the lungs, and making it a little hard to breathe.   I haven't been sick like this in years so maybe I was due, but geez!! I hate being sick and I really hate not being able to breathe, whether out of my nose or trying to catch a breath.


And yes I've taken meds, Mucinex and cough syrup and cold medicine...all to no avail.


This is not fun. 


Boy I hope this time next week I feel better. At least breathe anyway.
