Gotta Be Kidding Me
 
maybe two weeks ago I was riding my m/c around the block a few times to check a rattle out I tried to fix, wearing shorts, somehow I guess a spider got onto my legs and bit my quad, mid-thigh...damn near crashed hitting my leg and trying to slow/pull over. well that bite got a pretty nasty staff infection around it, my doc was worried it could be MRSA so he put me on a pretty heavy dose of Ceflex, which cleared it up within a few days.

last thursday morning I took the last Ceflex antibiotic dose and by friday morning had a sore throat and felt sick enough to stay home from work...rested up sat/sunday, by sunday night I had white spots on my tonsils. Missed work monday till now, day three on Ammoxicillin which hasn't done anything noticeable, still waiting for my throat swab and blood work from the lab from monday, don't know why it's taken so long. So I've been lurking around here between naps, really sucks to go from a serious staff infection to a nasty case of strep throat...and try to drink hot tea when it's 95 out.

the a/c is still broken at the house I'm renting so I'm at my parents' house.:argh:

man that sucks. i feel for you. i hate when i get sick, i will contiune to work because i cant sit at home or i will go crazy.


my buddy that builds road race bikes desided to take one out( no head lights, tail light, blinkers,mirrors, race tires,full on road race bike) well he running down the road and a bee flys into his helmet so he starts weaving back in fourth and stops and throws his helmet off. meanwhile a cop was behind him the whole time with his lights and he had no idea lol

long story short the cop let him go!!! the bike has no tags or nothing!!

man I'm the same way, unless I've already done all the work that needs to be done for the day/week I can't stand sitting around. I have a pretty high pain tolerance, too. so for something to knock me out and keep me down it's got to be some SERIOUS stuff.

got the lab reults back, main thing is mono. some homeopathic/natural tests show that I'm still dealing partially with the staff and definitely with strep; so I had my doc put a Z-pack on the prescription...he wants me to take some 'roids and thinks it'll take 4-6 weeks for me to get over it completely...awesome :argh: my brother in the service has said some pretty amazing things about the z-packs, I'd completely forgotten about them, so thank you guys for mentioning it! hopefully it helps!

sorry to hear about your luck, at least they came back with some results though!

Hope you recover soon, and remember those antibiotics kill ALL the bacteria in your system, even the good bacteria in your intestines. So, be sure to eat some yogurt with active cultures to keep your guts happy. :U:

Yea you cant win when you take antibiotics, you wind up with something else hurting,, like a yeast infection after penicillion:argh:,, best thing is cranberry juice, yogurt, and gargling with salt water helps too. lots of it,, Cranberries have probotics and will help cure anything.. my boys where both down with strep grease,,so they know how you feel, soon it will be all over...I wish i was taking care of them too.....but what doesnt kill them will make them stronger right..:humm:
