A Monday at home all by myself. I got caught up on all my “Big Bang Theory” episodes, so needless to say I spent a lot of tome in front of the TV. Feeling fine now that the patch has kicked in. Lots of loose saliva production, so lots of spitting. Throat mildly painful, but only when I try to talk or swallow. The weak and tired is unchanged. Did get grocery shopping done.
Visit to the doctor was successful only in the sense that I got out of there in 30 minutes. I’m a little anemic (hgb of 10.9) and my white count is a little low (3.8), but otherwise bloodwork was okay. I did ask for a urinalysis with culture, since I’ve been having some bladder infection symptoms. My mouth is improving, but I still have thrush on my tongue, so I guess I’ll be rinsing my mouth with the clotrimazole I have. Yuck! At least now I have a reason for why I feel weak and tired – anemia, aha! Recheck in a week to see how things are. Good news was that I think for the first time in a very long time I didn’t have a fever.
