We did really well this winter, no flu, sinus or nothing but now that we are back home from OK, I have some kind of crud. Sinus Allergy probably.....but I felt worse after I went to the doctor yesterday. And there was infection so have antibiotics for 5 days.


It was nice down there but they smoke, the trees were flowering and budding all over the place and my DSIL had to mow while we were down there....Yes he mowed because the GREEN stuff was past ankle high......lol..... we still have no green even though it is kinda trying to come up...


But I have never had the this stuff with the cough and ears OOOOOH it is just bad.....then our camp manager says that the water will be turned on Sat or Sun... So if Del has his work done (he is putting office furniture together probably take every bit of this week.


PHOOY.........sneeze, sneeze, sneeze go to the bathroom.......lol

That sounds just like the crud I had for 3 weeks. I seldom get ear problems, but when they began to hurt, I headed to convenient care. Allergy season here also, so I'm putting the allergy gel on my nasal opening regularly. Also taking 1/2 doses of antihistamine regularly. A full dose makes me sleepy, but the decreased amount keeps problems at bay. Have you tried a nasal wash? My MD told me to wait until the passages would drain, or I would risk forcing the gunk further up in my head.

I really feel for you. The fatigue I felt with that bug was overwhelming.

Yes, that sounds like allergies to me.

Shucks Janet! I sure hate to hear you are sick. I too have had some allergy trouble with the pollen and all the grass cutting but nothing like that.


Do take care!
