Ugh
So visited my family Dr. today, going to be increasing my dose of Lyrica for my fibromyalgia, he says it’s common not to notice any effect yet, especially at such a low beginning dose. I get to take more pills. (insert sarcastic tone here) Joy. He looked at my throat and it’s giant inflamed tonsils with pussy white spots on it, and declared it viral. Looked at the paper cut on my finger that started out a tiny little straight line on Monday when I got it, and has turned into a gaping little hole oozing puss and surrounded by puffy pusy tissue and surrounding that a large red hot area and declared it nasty bacterial. Looked at the nipple that was bothering me and declared it was also infected. He prescribed anti-biotics for me and said I’ll need to take the barbell out. So I took them both out.. I don’t want to be unbalanced. I said I would just take the one out and I could have it re-pierced after it heals, but he said if it gets infected a second time if I get it re-done, he says the risks of complications become higher. At this point with all the health issues I have going on, I just don’t want any risks. So bye bye nipple piercings. He said with some of my symptoms and the multiple infections there’s a good chance I have a blood based infection running around in me right now. Grrrrr. It would be hard to tell because I feel so generally unwell all the time anyways. These antibiotics I take four times a day.. so again, even more pills. I take way too many pills. The upside, I have Disney princess themed bandaids to put on my owwy… hmmm my spell check doesn’t recognize owy or owwy, boo-boo seems to be the spell checked approved term. Interestingly enough it also doesn’t recognize bandaids or Fibromyalgia but reminded me to capitalize Disney….
Leila.
