And So It Goes

I went to the dr. last Friday because I wanted some really good cough medicine for my allergies or maybe a summer cold. Since I was a walk-in (unscheduled appointment) I had to wait for about 2 hrs. but hey, life, y'know. No worries on my side. Though I doubt if the other patients were very thrilled to listen to me, since it sounded like I was trying to cough up a lung. *sighs*

After a round of labs (drawing blood to run assorted tests on it) and a couple of chest x-rays, everything came back 'good'. In other words, no pneumonia and no other 'bugs'. But I do have a nasty case of bronchitis due to allergies or whatever. Weirdly enough, this is depressing for me. It makes me feel like I am just a hypochondriac and a bum who is wasting the dr.'s time. Oh well. But the cough syrup he gave me is really strong and makes me want to sleep, so there is that. At least I am getting some rest because my 'crazy cough' can make it nearly impossible to sleep.

So hopefully I can catch up on responding to comments, etc. in the next day or so.
