Well, it turns out that the cold sore was not a farewell to my cold. It was just joking with me. I woke up yesterday not feeling great. I woke up today feeling pretty horrible. Steve graciously came home from work early. I have been in bed most of the afternoon.
The doctor finally called me back and had this to say: "The augmentin is a pretty hefty drug. Keep taking it along with the following; 6 advil cold and sinus a day, 2 prilosec (to offset the terrible stomach pains that will be created from the augmentin and the advil) and a nasal wash. Call us on Monday to let us know how you are feeling." Okay, I'll call you if I have not died of a drug overdose.
Camden is now back on nasonex, astepro, mucinex and zyrtec. We're like a regular pharmacy around here.
Colin has been moping the last 30 minutes. He is is bed. He was tucked in about 30 minutes ago. I went in to check on him and he had this sad look on his face. I asked him what was wrong and he told me he was sad. When I asked him why, his response was, "I'm not sure yet but when I figure it out, I'll let you know." Oh.My.Goodness. Talk about a kid needing attention. I'm not sure what to do with that one.
It's 8:20pm and I am going to bed now. Good night.
Colin and I have a lot in common these days. I don't know why I am crying. I just am. Ha ha! Although I'm 22 and pregnant. When you figure out how to respond to him, let me know and I'll call you for answers to my issues too. :D
ReplyDeleteI have a child similar to that. He will say "I am nervous." When I ask why, he honestly doesn't know.
ReplyDeleteThey did not address these things in Parenting 101!
And they also failed to mention that mom's are not allowed sick days.
Surely there is someone we can blame for not telling us this stuff? lol!
Hang in there. Being a parent is so much harder when you don't feel well. Take the drugs. I have found that drugs have become the answer for me. They just make it more tolerable. Which is good for everyone in our family.
