I have been sick. Sick enough to actually take time off work. I am feeling better, finally. I will post tonight after all the lesson plans are finished.-------------------- Small minds think in small terms! ~~CMH, creator and writer of Shayla Petrolu, Erik Kartan, Shawn Petrolu, Terrin Danner, Jasyn Lancaster, Matt Stanza, Aaron Barnes, And Taylor Garrison~~

Some uber-viral-cold thing that has been floating all over the school. I have never had my throat hurt so bad in my life and was certain I had strep (but didn't). By Thursday afternoon I had NO voice but didn't feel too bad. It was earlier in the week that I didn't sleep all night and called in by 6 am, which is unual for me. Took me all weekend to recover MOST of my voice and still having an annoying runny nose, but at least I can breath and talk now!-------------------- Small minds think in small terms! ~~CMH, creator and writer of Shayla Petrolu, Erik Kartan, Shawn Petrolu, Terrin Danner, Jasyn Lancaster, Matt Stanza, Aaron Barnes, And Taylor Garrison~~

Well, my temp topped out at 101.6, and the doc put me on a 5-pak of Azithromycin (sp??). You take two the first day (ie: last night) and then one a day for four more days.Wow. Super stuff. Last night I thought I was going to die... just passed out on the couch for an hour, woke up, watched Bab5 for a bit, then staggered off to bed. Woke up today feeling just fine, if a bit tired. Still a bit tired now, but other than that everything is functional, lol. As I said, powerful stuff! As for the dizziness, he thinks it's paroxysmal vestibular positional disorder, or something like that, lol. Basically there are bits of calcium in part of your inner ear, which aids in how you sense the world through your ears. Sometimes they break away and "drift" into the semi-circular canals; they're ok there until you make a positional change. I get dizzy when I go from laying down to standing up, or vice versa. "Positional." The dizziness is short-lived. "Paroxysmal." And it's in my inner ear. "Vestibular." Yay, rah. I guess there's some kind of therapy where they put you through all kinds of positional changes to make the calcium bits move out of the canals and back into the other part of the inner ear, but I think I'm just gonna go to the gym and try somersaults and stuff, lol. Beats paying a $30 copay three times a week! Now you know more about this than you ever wanted to know... -------------------- I ride the Stormcloud and the Night!
