Health update

[kimberkit]

In other news, apparently what I thought was the flu was actually just bronchitis, which means that the intermittent fevers and such should go away soon. The fact that all my breathing muscles (the ones in the lower back, the ones in between my ribs, etc) all hurt was prolly just a result of them being tired from all that coughing.

I'm taking advil/motrin/ibuprofin for the fevers from here on out; can't afford to miss too much more work.

I like my doctor; he actually answers his phone AND gets back to me when he says he will (which is more than many harried doctors do) he's fairly conservative in his medicating approach, and he's a nice fellow. More people should be nice to their doctors when they do a good job -- if you spend your entire life dedicated to other people, associate with sick people and thus risk getting sick all the time, and you also happen to be forced to work late for the first ten years of your career, you should get some love.
