Based on history my cold last week caused a sinus infection. Am going to call teledoc tomorrow to get antibiotics and steroids.

This is not fibro related, but I need to whine about health stuff...

Still struggling with respiratory bug. Today is first day on meds. First day of meds kicks my butt. I think it's my body and the meds fighting the infection, but it makes me feel even worse. I feel like death on a stick. Meds include steroids which increase appetite in other people. It kills what little appetite I have.

To top things off I think this is moving into my chest. Time to break out the nebulizer.

Okay, that's enough whining!

I just had to add this because it's funny. Antibiotic is labeled one at breakfast, one at bedtime. "Do not lay down for 30 minutes after taking" Do they think people sleep standing up !?!

Our weather fluctuated over the last few days. I used to like cold weather however now it triggers my Fibromyalgia.

I can’t remember if I mentioned purchasing a foot massager. It really helps with tender points.

Tired of pain. Tired of being exhausted all the time.

Friends, I'm not posting much at the moment. I feel like poo which makes me cranky. So I'm lurking for a bit. I have no patience for what seems to me whiney, crybaby behavior. There are times I just want to scream at people. Hence, not posting much.

Still struggling with the sinus infection. Called Teledoc Thursday. She ordered me stronger antibiotics and stuff for my asthma. Started the new stuff last night. We'll see how it goes.

I made the mistake of telling the Queen B about still being sick. Asked if I might be able to take breaks during the day. She lived up to her nickname. Basically told me I needed to do my job. Gawd I miss my old boss. He would've told me to do the best I could, but take care of myself.
