New Symptoms

Posting for Saturday, November 10, 2012

A trip to Dr Yagodich seemed to change my first diagnosis.  I had went to St Mary's convenient care, one of my all time least fave places, on Wednesday because that is the day that my doctor is out of the office.  They said I had a stomach virus, ok, I will admit it probably started out like that. 

Upon my examination at Dr Yagodich's office, he said that I was beginning to show signs of bronchitis and had a touch or start of pneumonia.  That was what I was afraid of!  In January 2008 I had been hospitalized with pneumonia and some of my symptoms felt eerily familiar!  He gave me Cipro and told me to get plenty of bed rest.  I haven't been this sick in a long time, I asked the question many have asked me, if this had anything to do with my flu shot that I had 2 weeks ago, he said no "this is a whole different monster."  Indeed it is. 

I slept most of Saturday thinking I would get better.  The short time I was up walking around on Saturday, I felt worse, much worse.  I however had high hopes for better things to come on Sunday.
