Before After

Week 13, Day 6 - An Ear Infection?!?

Well, I've been home since about noon on Monday. I went to work and practically fell down the stairs every time I had to go down to the restroom or one of the planes. And I DID fall up them once...nice bruise on the shin from that one.

Got in to a doc (not my regular FP, but in the same clinic) yesterday afternoon. After he gave me his personal opinion of phentermine (needless to say, I was not impressed), he told me I have an ear infection.  He gave it some big fancy name, but I don't remember what. No antibiotics...just time, moving slow, and Meclizine HCl (basically Dramamine) for the dizziness.

Unfortunately, I HAVE to go back to work tomorrow. I can't stay home any longer, even though I would really like to just stay in bed all day. I guess at least I know that
a) I'm not nuts (in this case )
b) it will go away someday.

 

I haven't lost anything in the last week, but I'm not upset about it.  Nor am I surprised.  My eating has been crappy or non-existant.  With the nausea, I've just not had an appetite.  For example, yesterday, I had half a bowl of cereal, a handful of M&M's and a tiny slice of pizza.  Yes, that's it.  No, it wasn't good. I'm going to have to force myself to eat again...the right things though.
