Breathing is hard

[geminigirl]

Triage nurse agrees with me that it's probably bronchitis, (that green stuff is a clue) but the earliest they can get me in is 11 PM tonight, unless breathing gets more difficult. I'll probably end up with a script for antibiotics, maybe a nebulizer treatment depending on oxygen saturation and peak flow tonight when I go in, and if I'm lucky a good strong cough medication to let me sleep through the night.

I think maybe a nap before I go out tonight though.

I thought mine was chesty till it turned out it was sinusy. And like a classic plotline, once the TRUE (not suspected) bad guy is reveiled, he comes out swing full force. Evil nose, and its evil sidekick post nasal drip (bad sick day for me too :/) .

Get a few days worth on antibiotics in yah, and in hang in there in meantime.

This is pretty classic bronchitis for me; it's a blessing of asthma or something. I used to get it yearly (at least) when I was in college. I don't actually feel like going out and doing what I have planned tonight, but I'll do it at least until I start feeling too icky to do it.
