Something Always Has To Give

Remember last week when I was complaining about not eating enough giving me a headache. Well I am pretty sure that it wasn't only food related. It seems that I have worked my way into a sinus infection. I have all the tell tale symptoms, the pain, pressure, sensitivity to light and a lovely never ending headache to boot. My Dr is away on vacation this week and I have an appointment next Friday. In the mean time I am going to try some home remedies, hopefully I will be able to cure myself.

I would drag myself down to the clinic but they are full to the brim with people and I don't want to sit for hours on end. It is something that I get all the time and its too bad that they don't just keep an open prescription on file so you wouldn't have to waste going to the doctor. One time I went to the clinic and the Dr asked me what was wrong, so I told him I have a sinus infection. He said how do you know? I replied to him, "have you ever had a toothache, will I am sure once you have had one the next time around you know exactly what it is". Just the same he insisted and sent me for an x-ray which in turn confirmed my diagnosis.

Tune in tomorrow to see if I have preformed a miracle. Take care.
