Enough already!
Jul. 31st, 2006 07:55 pmThe cough was better, so I made it in to work on Sunday - I was a little over half-way through my 12-hour shift, and called my boss and said 'I'm going home, so I can be miserable there and try to be well to work the rest of my week.' My co-worker was fine with that, boss was fine - I went home.
I went to bed about 7:00-7:30. Somewhere in the 8:00-8:30, I gave up on try to sleep and took my temperature - I was running about a 1/2 degree fever. I called my lovely wifeiraunink, she brought me up three extra-strength (500mg) acetaminophen. About 9:30 - still not sleeping - I realized I was warm to the touch but shivering. Hmmm. I take my temperature again. It's UP .7 degree from the last time! I call iraunink and say 'what do I do now?' She brings me two ibuprofen and tells me I'm going to see the doctor. I call my boss and tell him I won't be in on Monday. I fall asleep, wake up about 1:30-1:45 (I think a combination of dogs and bladder woke me), let the dogs out, have two more acetaminophen, watch about 20-25 minutes of TV, and go back to sleep - waking up again about 7:45. iraunink is also awake, she calls the doctor's office and makes an appointment. I lay in bed for another hour or so, then get up and do 'around the house stuff' until 11ish, when I lie down for a couple of hours. Get up, shower, go to the doctor, get Z-Pac. I like Z-Pac!
I'm currently planning on making it in to work tomorrow. Wish me luck?
