I've been saying to doctors with growing confidence that I feel worse now then when I came in. Its not drastic, I still feel good enough to be out of here in many ways. My main complaints are #1: a sore throat that has been nagging and nagging and waxing and waning for 4 long weeks. #2: A seemingly deeper down phlegm that, when it comes out is eerily thicker and colourful.
This second one scares me. The first night I saw colour we chalked it up to finally starting to "move" things out after 5 days. Day 5 is normally a time when you are supposed to be well on your way to your antibiotics working, but I had a hard first few what with my roommates, being sad, and not sleeping. Fair. Today's bloodwork confirmed what I was feeling. White blood cell count was up from Monday. 3 whole days and UP. yuckkkkkkkkkk
I'm grateful I have tomorrow to hash out my concerns with the doctors. I better see the main doc tomorrow, because I've been dealing an awful lot with the resident and I don't particularly like him. In an ideal world I'd have a different main doctor on the ward too. No one holds a candle to our head honcho. Maybe next week. I hope.
Today I did 20 mins on an exercise bike before physio too. My physiotherapist said that doing this increases the productivity of physio. She was right! I had a really big, great cough. However, I've struggled with a left upper side pain ever since. And now this news. Not sure what to think.
Almost wish I didn't ask, but at least now I can voice my questions. Peace out.
