The One in Which I Get My Head Examined

Hey, readers! Two days in a row I post. :)

It's two days before Christmas so I should be done shopping and ready for the holiday right? Um, no. I am trying not to stress about it, but I still don't know what my DH wants for Christmas and I haven't mailed stuff to the kids yet.

I sort of have an excuse for getting nothing done yesterday. M's appointment was in the morning. It went pretty well. On the way home I called and got an appointment for myself for after lunch. Then my day started to unravel from there. I spent most of it driving in the car so I could get my head examined.

First: Baby A pic for my sis. I don't know why you didn't get this because it was sent to you too, but the email they used was random.

Isn't he adorable? My goodness, I need some more grandbabies or something...

Anyway, I went to the doctor and I have bronchitis in addition to the lingering sinus infection. He gave me a different antibiotic and sent me to have a ct scan so we could see what's up with my sinuses. He suggested that I may need to "get this taken care of" during my holiday break, but I'm not sure what that means. If it involves anyone rooting around in my sinus cavity I'm totally not going to be awake for it, that's for sure. I don't expect any results from the scan before next week, but it should be interesting to see what they find.

[Edited to add: It's never good news when the doctor calls you back the next day. :(  He says I have terrible sinuses. I have a deviated septum, polyps and need my sinuses drained. I'm being referred to an ENT doctor and he's added prednisone to my list of meds. ]

And this is why I avoid going to the doctor. If you stay out of the clinic, then they can't label you with something like bronchitis. I felt just fine before I found out I have bronchitis and now my chest hurts when I cough. And the antibiotic does stuff to my stomach even if I take it with food. Yuck.

Luckily the hubby had chili cooking on the stove when I got home. Guess I'll keep him.

Well, I'm going to get some cleaning done while I can. Then I'm gonna take a nap. :)
