What does a perfect lung sound like?
So, no mini-project, as I just got sicker by Thurs. and worse on Fri. It was semi-manageable over the weekend, but I found it hard to breathe during any physical activity (ie. moving). I got just a little rest but I thought I'd be getting better by this week, but since I wasn't, on Tues. I went to the clinic to see if maybe they could tell me what's wrong with me. After spending over 2 hours there, I got some good news and some bad news. Good news is I gotta X-ray! (iono, I always thought it was cool to get an X-ray done, I wonder if I can get a copy of them...) Bad news is, Doctor thinks I have pnemonia. He had sent me to get an X-ray done cuz he didn't think my right lung sounded perfect (which got me wondering, What does a perfect lung sound like?) so after lookin over a couple x-rays of my lungs, he said it doesn't look scary but that there's a small dark area that looks like an infection. Lovely, an infection, in my lungs, it just couldn't have been somewhere EXTERNAL, I thought. Anyways, he said he'd run it over with the radiologist to make sure and call me the next day, but until then he was gonna treat me for the time being, for pneomonia. So I'm on anti-biotics, and he also prescribed me some decongestant stuff to clear up my sinuses. Yeah, it's a lotta meds, bleck! and they're these pretty big pills that you gotta chug down with hella water... *gag*
So I haven't heard back from the Doc. yet, and I'm still coughing, still stuffy, I don't think the decongestant stuff works that well, I swore the Doc. wrote Crantex on the prescription slip, but the pharmacy gave me Ami-Tex with (generic for Crantex) written next to it in parentheses... I know they're all supposed to work the same, but yeah, weird...
and they weren't cheap either! 55 bucks for the anti-biotics and 29 bucks for Ami-tex... *sigh* on top of that, I'm gonna be charged for the X-rays too... wonder how much that'll all total to... welps, it's all being charged to my student account, guess we'll see soon enough...
On another note, we've officially moved-in to our new place! We (Fay, Jen and I) finished moving everything over at like 2am in the morn (Sun./Mon.), lol! well we were pretty much done at like 8pm, but there were some last few items here and there, plus we had to help Fay clean the other place... but yeah, soon as I install the programs for my digi cam, I'll upload pics of the place, as messy as it is rite now cuz I still haven't organized all my crap yet...
More on this next time...
