A trip to the doc...

Okay, so the weather has turned from bad to worse and there's this new wave of viruses making rounds over here. I wasn't feeling too good this morning (my glands were swollen); not as bad as last time, but definitely something the doctor should look at. So I put on my woolliest sweater and a scarf and my thick outdoor jacket and went to see the doctor. She said my throat didn't look too bad, but she made some blood tests anyway, just in case. I will need to call in tomorrow to find out if the virus has reactivated or if I caught another one (please don't let this be the case). Sigh....

Meanwhile, I'm going to have to cancel some work-related appointments again.  Also, if I do have another virus, it's highly infectious and I don't want to be responsible for making other people sick, but I fear my reputation is going to suffer if I keep cancelling work stuff. There's nothing I can do about it. Sorry, this is not a happy post. I'm just so sick (literally) and tired of this whole virus mess and winter dragging on and on and on

At least I have more time to read your blogs and discover new ones, which is always highly entertaining and brightens my day.

Athena said...

Wow, I do hope you're feeling better soon. I personally love winter, but not all the viruses that are continually spread around. I hope people are understanding of your need to cancel work!

I hope you get to feeling well. When the babies were sick last week, the doctors said that a virus was going around. They even shut down an entire school because so many kids were getting sick! We are not even in the same country but the "bug" is still such a nuisance at this time of year.
Get well,

Erika

Sweetwater Designs said...

Just stop worrying and take care of yourself Duni..and you're in the best place you can be right now to do that.
Feel better!

Keeping my fingers crossed that you are virus free:) Meanwhile, keeping thinking very positive thoughts and imagine yourself with perfect health:)

Sandi said...

don't let yourself feel bad. It might make people say things when you call off work but they'd say things if you came in sick and got everyone else sick as well. You can't make everyone happy and going to work while ill is just not possible. So just concentrate on getting better. :)

I hear ya! If it isn't my kids who are sick, it's me. I've been in bed the last few days with something. You're braver (smarter?!) than I am - it isn't that cold here in Denver but I still can't get the energy up to go to the dr.

Don't worry about your reputation suffering (easier said than done) - if someone is sick, and they don't "always" cancel on me, I'm grateful they are keeping their ick to themselves.

Just hang in there and drink lots of fluids!

oh, Duni :-( Dont worry about the work stuff, maybe it was not meant to be...some other time...now its YOU first

Ambrosia said...

I'm sorry to hear you're sick again...the weather this winter's been terrible for making people sick, even here in the eastern U.S.

I understand the need to maintain professional rep., but right now the most important thing is for you to take it easy till you feel better...if you don't take care of yourself, how are you supposed to maintain everything else?

I hope you feel better soon, hun...*HUG*

KAT said...

Joanna said...

Oh no! I'm sorry you're not feeling well again. I hope that you get it's butt kicked soon. While canceling the work stuff is hard, I'm sure they'll appreciate it if they know how infectious and nasty that virus is!
