Sickies...

Well there will be no pictures this post because they would have been horrifying! For the past 2 weeks I have felt sicker than a dog and gave it to Michael. I came down with a horrid cough and the chills at first and thought that I could beet it with a little R&R but no... after 5 days of not moving off the couch and giving Mike the chills, a fever, and my cough, I finally went to the doctor. I had bronchitis! So all the meds I had been taking (including all the cough and cold and sinus medication) were not helping much. So the doctor gave me an antibiotic, some prescription cough medication and an inhaler because my air ways were being constricted! Just last week I began getting another symptom... really bad nashua! No... I am not pregnant for those of you who are wondering... I have been on some other medication prior to getting sick which would upset my stomach slightly but I think with the combinations of all the medications I was taking, it just was not setting well with my body. Well anyways, I am finally on the up and up... not 100 percent but I am much better! Michael got lucky and just caught a cough but that was about it. After a few days of having a fever and being weak he got better a bit quicker than I. He now is struggling with a bit of a stuffy nose, it sometimes seems never ending! We were joking last night that the neighbors know exactly when we get home because we both start coughing and hackin up luggies (I think it will be that way for another week or so)! One thing that I have not gotten back yet is my taste senses... I have not been able to taste my food in 2 weeks! For someone who loves to eat, it is a sad day when everything tastes bad... even POPCORN!!!! The point of it all is we are just both so happy that we are overall feeling better; life is much easier when you are not fighting your body!
