A few days ago I felt an upswing in my energy level and hoped my sinus infection was getting beaten.

Today is the last day of antibiotics—I take my last pill at bedtime. However, I had my doubts it’s really going away. I had tangible proof of that come out of my nose about two hours ago (5:30-ish pm ET); I blew out some yellow gunk. And, I still have pressure in my right ear and my right neck gland is still slightly swollen, Oh yay!

Also today I finally connected with the prospective ear, nose, and throat (ENT) doctor. That practice does not take my insurance. Double yay! So, now I will have to call Florida Blue for a list of ENT’s in my area that do take my insurance.

This is all so dispiriting. I have so much to do just around my house. Many of those chores involve dealing with dusty things. I’m allergic to dust. I guess I’ll be taking the antihistamine the stupid nurse practitioner (NP #2) prescribed as I force myself to work through the lack of energy.

I’m sick of this crap.

I still have to fix a bunion, and my right knee.

Oh goodie.
