Taking A Licking, Still Ticking
May. 20th, 2010 09:27 amSorry for the radio silence. I'm still sick and posting has been about the furthest thing from my mind. If I'm not at work I'm sleeping, or at least trying to.
I'm feeling better overall - no sore throat now and I can almost breathe. But the head is still full of copious amounts of snot and the coughing has actually gotten a bit worse. Pretty much normal for the tail end of a cold/sinus infection. The biggest problem is the lack of energy and how easily I wear myself out. I'm still not going to the gym although I hope to get back into a routine starting next week. As long as I can breathe, of course.
Still, it could be worse. My brother-in-law as avascular necrosis in one of his hips and will be having a full hip replacement in June - at the ripe old age of 45! Right now he's on drugs to manage the pain as his hip joint has pretty much disintegrated. So yeah, a head cold is nothing. I can deal.
