A running dialogue of my life...family, friends, work....and the craziness I sometimes see and hear.

Bet you thought I died.
I bet you thought I died from my illness. Noooooo.....although at times I wished I had.
I have no idea what's wrong with me. I have no idea if I'm getting better. Sometimes I feel better. Sometimes, not so much.
The first time to the doctor: After an examination which the doctor said was "unremarkable" and no fever, even though I had all the symptoms of high fever, he decided it was a virus. (aka, I have no freakin' idea).
The second time to the doctor: Fever of 103 and some indication in my urine sample that I had a UTI (even though I had no symptoms of a UTI) they gave me a prescription for Cipro. Just in case.
I did tell the doctor that the last time I had slightly elevated bacteria in my urine and they treated me for a UTI "just in case" it was a kidney stone. However, I don't have any symptoms of a kidney stone either and a kidney stone doesn't usually cause the symptoms I do have.
So......
Hmmm.....
Clueless.
I do know that I haven't been able to eat for almost a week. That I have the energy of a very-slow-moving turtle. That I'm exhausted from doing something like sit at my computer writing a post. That sometimes I'm feeling much better. And then I see-saw back to feeling lousy.
I missed a whole week of work doing absolutely nothing. I am determined to go back on Monday, even if it kills me. And it just might.

I am so sorry to hear that you still don't feel worse. The only thing worse than being sick is not knowing what you have, and when it will end. I hope you get back to feeling 100% REAL SOON!
Doesn't it drive you crazy when they don't know what's wrong? Geesh..
Feel better and don't go back to work too soon, it could throw you right back..
