my health

so after having a fever on and off for a month, i caved and went back to the dr. i took tylenol this morning like usual, but didnt at lunch time so they could see my fever was 101.5 and it hadnt even been 6 hours since my last dose. i didnt wanna go back b/c they usually tell me to fight if off even though ive got green stuff going on and fever-hello INFECTION! well today i saw a dr. a real dr! not a dr that talks about rainbows and unicorns and baselines and research. a dr who listened to my every little concern for the past few months and had an answer for everything. thank you dr bob. but the bad thing is i went alone and needles were involved! EEK! he also had me pee in a cup and go to the hospital for chest xrays. so he covered every area. he said fevers shouldn't last that long. its probably nothing. if you know me, i get a fever when i get a cold. my body does not like sickness, but it sure happens to me often. and he gave me a strong antibiotic. its a 'cousin' to penicillin so lets see if my throat swells up :) and on the bottle it says diarrhea could last up to weeks or months after taking this! sounds fun! whatever it takes for this fever to go away. i feel like my bones are breaking! oh and i asked the xray tech if radiation can scramble or fry my eggs :) so she 'shielded' my baby-maker! ha! k after that 2 hour trip im down for a nap and getting some fever reducer in this body. i will let you all know my results in a few days. ps heather, thanks for listening to all my randomness today xo!
