Last week I went to doctor (primary) who diagnosed flu and sinus infection, wrote for tamiflu and zithromax antibiotic. On my merry way I went, feeling run down but generally muddling through.
Starting at the weekend I felt I was going downhill which annoyed me as I was finishing the medications and should be getting better. By monday night i knew it was heading into my chest. Long time asthmatic, I know that feeling oh so well. Back to doc.... O2 sats still looked good hovering around 97-98, temp slightly up but not worryingly dramatic or anything.... but! (theres always a but isnt there) doc heard rhonchi in my lungs today that he doesnt like. Now popping tesselon perles for the cough, new rx for levaquin, and awaiting results of chest xray thagt was done today to decide if this is "just" bronchitis or if i in fact have walking pneumonia.
Pending that GI will decide what to do about my humira schedule so far she has wanted to keep me on schedule but pneumonia might be different so will leave that to her
Just a general argh and a request that only ONE part of my body attempt to kill me at any given moment in the future kthanks
