So I've had this nasty cold, or so I thought, for a week now. I woke up this morning and my left eye was matted shut....eww, gross, I know! I finally decided this was it and I probably should go to the dr. as my ears still hurt and my coughing was not improving and now the eye. I went to the walk-in clinic on the skywalk downtown and got in right away. The nurse practitioner did her normal thing...weight, height, BP, etc...then came to look at my ears, nose, throat, and eye. She couldn't believe I still had my tonsils...me either as they are HUGE even when they're normal...but as I thought, I had a full blown sinus infection. This is the thing that gets me...this sinus infection caused me to get pink eye! I had no idea this was a possibility...until now! What 25 year old gets pink eye? Well I guess this one does!! So I guess when a sinus infection gets that bad and to this point and all the other ways of trying to get rid of the infection are blocked, it can then go to the eye. Eww...gross...again, I know! Ick!! But they put me on some antibiotics and gave me stuff for my eye so I'm sure I'm on the road to recovery. Or let's hope. But the next, and last, thing I'm going to complain about is they gave me an ointment to put on my eye. Do you know how hard it is to get this stuff on the inside lower part of your eye, blink for a while to spread it, then have a nice film over your eye? Not easy!! I'm wondering why I couldn't have just gotten drops...but I guess that would be too easy. Oh well...I'll live! :)
And all this sickness lately has made me lame-o. So I can't wait to be healthy and go out sometime SOON hopefully! Watch out Des Moines...haha!!
