So the last three days or so I’ve felt like I’ve been hit by a wrecking ball physically. my sinuses haven’t really cleared up much but as I mentioned before the headache got less intense. Yay! So naturally I thought I was getting better. Well the doc says no. He says what I have can’t be bacterial, it must be fungal. Basically, bacteria shouldn’t still be here this long this strong. So he scrapes my tongue looking for yeast. I think good lord that’s disgusting. He finds some, I think that’s even more disgusting! He says it must be fungal. Basically my sinuses are clogged with a fungal infection. WTF!? Apparently I have been on too many freaking anti-biotics this last year or something and the last time...in November... all the bacteria was killed including the good stuff which is normal, but the good stuff didn’t come back, which is not. Boo. I would now like to strangle the back-up doc I saw who kept putting me on anti-biotics so much. grrrr.
Now I’m on an anti-fungal med as well as the 10 other medications I was recently put on. I’m a little worried for my liver at this point. :/ The headaches persist but that’s because the infection isn’t truly under control yet. And they put me on a steroid today which makes me very very unhappy. I don’t want to be a manly girl ffs. It’s short term though so if it helps this go away I will deal with it. But I’m not happy about it! Grrr.
I guess the good news behind all this is maybe if I get all this cleared up I can hope that all my illnesses are a thing of the past except the occasional sinus infection. *crosses fingers*
Oh and the weirdest thing about all of this is I drink a Dan active yogurt drink every freaking morning for breakfast so how can I NOT have good bacteria???????????
