Stupid sinuses...

calic0catWell, I'd intended to spend today getting caught up on e-mail and feedback responses. Except this blasted sniffling-sneezing-runny-nose-coughing-stuffy-ears thing that I've been battling with since - oh, *Christmas* or so - flared up worse again. This time with the whole painful-sinuses-and-short-of-breath bit for good measure. So I finally caved and went back to the clinic. Again.
An hour and a half to see the doctor. Five minutes in his office for him to decide that it's a sinus infection and I must be prone to them. Like *duh*.
Half an hour to pick up the bloody prescriptions. And man, oh man, am I glad I have a good drug plan at work because that would have been one very big bill otherwise. As in well over $100.
So, now I have 10 days worth of antibiotics (with drowsiness and dizziness as likely side-effects) plus an antihistamine and a nasal spray. On the upside, maybe I'll (a) actually manage to get a decent night's sleep and (b) actually shake this stupid thing. One can only hope.
So - still playing catch-up, at least as long as the side effects don't kick in, and also working on my next Sentinel "Clue" series fic and the next LWH and the next Kindergarten Heero. Whichever one chooses to cooperate at a given moment.
