Well, this past week has been pretty crappy to say the least. Last Wednesday I started to feel sick, typical cold and sore throat. Stayed home from work Thursday and was feeling better Friday. Saturday came along and I still had the sore throat. This is unusual for me, the only last a few days. Anyway Sunday comes along and I'm supposed to be leaving for my camping trip. Bought the final necessities and off I went. Well, the weather was bad but I was determined to stick it out. Sunday night the rain had stopped but I still wasn't feeling well, went to bed and only could sleep about a half hour at a time. I decided the next morning I was going home and making a Drs. app.
Saw the DR on Tuesday and things were only getting worse. My doctor sent me to an ear nose and throat specialist cause he said looked like and abscess and needed to be cut and drained. I got lucky and the ENT said its not that bad yet and put me on a bunch of meds (an antibiotic, prednisone, a couple of shots, In the butt no less and some vicodin. Finally tonight I could eat for the first time since Sunday night. My voice is still not normal but all the pills have kicked in so that makes me feel much better. So now I get to spend the rest of my vacation at home trying to get better. I should point out that the left side of my throat was swollen to the point that the whole left side of my throat was touching my uvula.
