Gotta kick this! Need some really good luck right now.

I am STILL sick! It has now gone from being a sinus and head thing, to also including the chest. So I am one big bunch of congestion.  Feel like there is this little guy sitting inside my head trying to kick my eyes out.

BUT the worst part of being ill right now, is that I am returning to MX to get a repair done to a plastic surgery procedure I had done in Feb. I leave on Nov 27th, and the repair surgery is Nov 29th. I already paid airfare. So I really REALLY have to kick this thing. I would just cry if I get there and he won't do it due to this cold! I leave in 8 days counting today...surgery in 10. I have been sick for 7 days now, (today is day 7).

Please wish me luck in getting over this quickly!

Hugs to you all.

Oh Patrece, I'm so sorry to hear that you are still trying to battle this thing.  I will keep you in my prayers for a very speedy recovery.  It may be worth a visit to your regular doctor for some antibiotics.

Let us us know how you are progressing.

Has your Dr given you antibiotics? If you explain your situation to him/her they are likely to give you something strong to kick it. And if it went into your chest you could end up with pnemonia  or bronchitis.

Thanks ladies. I may have to do that, but kinda thinking this is a cold so an antibiotic wouldn't be effective against that. But it may be worth a try...

Hugs and thanks again gals!

Oh Patrece! So sorry to hear you are sick. I just went through a similar monster flu, so I understand how you must feel. I recommend antibiotics, cough syrup and lots of sleep!! Oh and tons of tea!
Take good care of yourself!
  
Over 110 lbs lost!! (Finally!)

Hi lady bug! long time no hear and so sorry you have this darned thing going on,  most Dr's overlook the sinus infection that may be going on, please go to Dr and have them give you something to break it up, when I get these they take forever to go away, Doc usually perscribes Antibiotic and at times when bad it takes few different ones to work ( I havn't had them for awhile but used to get them when I lived in a different climate & boy so bad)  have you tried hot tea with honey and bit of lemon?  this seems to break up congestion in chest and sinus area for me. God Bless my friend AND so happy for you with your procedure! you go girl!!!!  Hugs   Cathy

Hey lady! Yessss it has been a long time.. so nice to hear from you. I have constant sinus problems since i have been back here in Colorado, but boty when you couple it with this yuck, it is terrible! Am thinking I need to see about getting the antibiotics Monday. Hope I can get in to see the doc. If not...you think I could get a vet to see me??? LOL! Hey...they give antibiotics right?

I too am glad I get to have my procedure revised. I had it done in February initially, but have a problem area or two..lol.  I told the plastic surgeon my butt lift has fallen and I can't pick it up..lol. Hoping he can re-do that.. along with the other revision. (think I have a suture buried in some tissue, and the area won't stop hurting me, and is scaring oddly).

Hoping all is well with you.
Hugs and love!
