rootofnewtmy boy is so good for me. he persistently called the doctor for me today. when he finally told me what the doctor had said (clean xrays, thank goth) and what he was prescribing (uh, not so good), he called the doctor back and played messenger boy, since even talking is leaving me out of breath and heart-poundy. to be honest, typing is doing that, but i need SOME sort of social interaction. i've gone nuts this week.
the doctor ended up calling in a pain drug i took years ago which stopped working (tolerance), but should now, hopefully work again, corticosteroids, and a flu med... now, i'm not keen on taking tamiflu, since it works for InfA or InfB and needs to be started within 40 hours of onset of symptoms (I've had pain for well over a week and a fluctuating fever of 100F for a few days now and I'm not sure I HAVE the flu)... but i think the doctor will be upset if i dont' take it. so i will. i thought about refusing the prescription, but... *sigh* if there's a chance it will work, i'll take it.
my neck is so incredibly tense from the stress of trying not to cry from the pain. crying hurts so much worse. and i have spine/neck pain from whatever this is ANYWAY. *sigh*
anyhow, back to boy. he picked up the prescriptions and handed me a pressie! a little glowy necklace of a green star! (i have a bat and a skull already). he's so sweet!
he took some stuff out to the shed, refilled the bird feeders, shovelled the walks (well, he's required to do that, but he did it by himself... he's made me lots of cider today (and bought more earlier)... in fact, when i set the kettle to boiling, he took it upon himself to pour and stir the cider and bring it to me without even waiting for me to do it. he's done ALL the dishes this week. he's taken such good care for me.
he's making dinner now. pizza bread. :)
