Allergies my ass!! I'm dying here.

I'm reposting some of my old blog material,
mostly to get it all in one place again.

For three days I've suffered. Headaches, runny nose, itchy watery eyes, aches and pains... you know the feeling. But, being male, I loaded up on Tylenol and Sudafed (the real shit, not that candy assed stuff they put out on the shelf now) and pressed on. Going to see a doctor was not really an option.

Now don't get me wrong. I didn't say I was being the strong silent type and suffering in silence. Oh hell no. When I'm sick I'm the biggest baby there is and trust me...EVERYONE knows I don't feel well. But as I stated before, seeing a doctor was not an option.

Last night however, that changed. Sneezing, coughing (i'm still looking for one of my lungs) and fever were thrown into the mix and I was pretty sure I was going to die.

Obviously I didn't and when I got up this morning I agreed to make an appointment to see the doc.

I won't bore you with the details but bottom line is the doc says I have allergies which created drainage which got infected which made me sick.

WHAT? ARE YOU F***ING KIDDING ME?

There is no way I felt that bad because of some stupid allergies. Surely I have some sort of horrible, unknown to mankind, disease! Do you have any idea how badly I felt last night?????? Come on doc... I took off work today. How can I go back and face my co-workers with tales of my sickness when it was just allergies??? That's lame! How am I supposed to get maximum pity from allergies???? Sheesh!

Oh well, on the bright side... the nurse that gave me a shot in the ass was hot and I have some pretty impressive looking meds to take for the next few days.

And now you know why I don't go see the doc. He's no help at all.
