So I finally get over my back pain and immediately get allergies because we had a 70 degree day last week and then a cold day followed it, completely screwing up my nose. So from Thursday I was sneezing my brains out and of course my nose got stuffy. I didn't waste anytime taking ZyrtecD and then even going to buy MucinexD, but they were no match for my nose.
When I would start to feel better and breathing normally, I would think, okay, now I can go do whatever, which ended up being a mistake because my nose would stuff right back up. And then Sunday it started going into my lungs and I'm coughing like crazy. Aye yi yi. Yesterday I did stay home from work and did nothing except take the dogs out one time but other than that I rested...and then could not sleep at all last night. And I do mean NOT. AT. ALL. Every time I laid down I would start coughing, so then I would go downstairs and sit upright in the chair but still couldn't sleep, so I was awake literally all night. And then got up to go to work this morning. I am breathing a bit better but definitely not 100%, probably 50% if that, and I should have stayed home for the rest of the week I think but didn't want to take the leave.
Anyway, if there was a silver lining to all this, I did lose 7 lbs, because feeling like I have, I haven't eaten a whole lot. A bowl of cereal here and there and my coffee and that's about it. I can't taste a darn thing, except the sweet or spicy sensations but that's it. I did have a little dinner last night, a spicy pork roast and garlic fries, but had I been blindfolded first, I could not have told you what it was that I was eating, except that the meat was spicy. I would hate to lose my taste buds but it sure would make dieting easy because you just would eat enough to survive.
So now to just get over all this.
One thing after the other. Sheesh.
