Being sick in the summer sucks!
Was feeling a little puny last week, but not bad enough to go to the doc. Then the weekend rolls around and it's getting worse, tried my ol' Momma cure all/home remedy Sunday (burnt motor oil and Tabasco sauce enema
) and it didn't work.
Yesterday morning it hits me like a ton of bricks! Called the doc and got an appointment. After being poked with a needle, prodded with swabs, and bombarded with X rays... I find out I have Mycoplasma Pneumonia. This is the fifth year in a row I've had this crap and it pisses me off!!!
I never used to get this stuff! It was always the flue, tonsillitis, or sinusitis... but I don't get those anymore, I get this junk!
I take the pneumonia vaccine every 5 years.. but it doesn't work on the Mycoplasma.
Was talking to the doc yesterday and he said the see a lot of it and it's not seasonal, they see it all year long.
So now my butt is sore and I have to take horse pills the size of an NFL football, I have to limit my exposure to the sun because of the medication... and I feel like re-fried rat crap!
There, I'm done... but I don't feel better!
