Sick Call!!!


Oh man.....  Mid January, wind change blew in juniper pollen...  That spurred a crazy cedar fever allergy attack..... That turned into a sinus infection.....  First miracle drug go round didn't fix it.  Second go round killed it, but an added kicker of a steroid for inflammation took me to the mat.  Dizzy, eye problems, blood sugar issues...  I mean, what the heck!  One full week on my back, and the next few moving around carefully. 

I went through a pile of snot tissue...  I can heartily recommend Kleenex with lotion.  If you remember the brown paper towels at school (made out of sawdust and hickory bark) that wiped a layer of skin off with each use, you'll thank me for that bit of advertising....



 I'll be back to my vices soon.... I hope!  (Vises?)  I'm still pretty weak and wimpy.... I haven't been this sick ever.  4 weeks.... dang...

Thanks to all three of you who read the blog for not giving up.

  1. Dang it. I saw this last night while on break and tried to leave a comment using my phone and it disappeared It does that a lot for some reason.
    That sounds like no freakin fun my man, A whole month of misery.
    I had no idea there was such a thing as Cedar Fever!
    Says it comes from Juniper trees?
    That would be why. There is a bunch of that over in Eastern Oregon, sometimes you can smell it as you drive through.
    We don't have those on the West side of the Cascades though.
    I certainly hope you are well on the mend, that sounds miserable as hell.
    One foot in front of the other. Yes, I do read your blog. I don't know if I told you this but I somehow ran across it a long time ago and liked what I saw but there weren't any new updates.
    That be a hint....
