Ok, so here I am, way behind on posts, and lying in bed with my first(and I pray my last) sinus infection. It's actually quite funny you see. I went in for some scans last week, for my girly parts, and while those parts were "possibly" normal, there was two unexpected findings.. Some spots on my liver, possible cysts, which I have to follow up with an ultrasound in 3 weeks along with another CA125, and left maxillary sinus disease, which is a Big name for a serious sinus infection. After my scan the doc asked me if I had been sick and I honestly haven't been. No colds, or flu. Maybe a slight sore throat a week ago. So when I left the doctors office I was baffled because I was at a loss. However, the next night, I soon found out what this sinus infection finding was all about. It was hibernating in my nice warm sinus cavity just waiting to rear its ugly head. And what an ugly head it is. That night I had never felt so bad. I felt like someone had shot my in the left side of my face. My eye, cheek, ear, and even upper jaw was filled with excruciating pain and a pressure that I can only describe as hell.it was literally hell in my head. I had chills, fever, pain, pressure, and just looked like one of those characters off the walking dead. It hurt to talk, walk, eat, and never mind trying to blow this infection out of my nose-holy Lord! My ear drum went out with it. I wouldn't wish this on an enemy of mine.. Ok well maybe I would. Just kidding.
Ha, a little humor to make me feel better
So it's been a few days now and I have googled every home remedy and tried just about all of them. I also read a lot of unnecessary things too, that I probably shouldn't have. And just when I feel like I think I'm recovering, I get pain and pressure all over again, and my head feels like it's a 15lb bowling ball. However, since I'm on round the clock 800mg Army Motrin, I haven't seen the fever come back. I hope this is what they call on the mend.
I had a lot to write about but I can't focus too long on a screen. It hurts my eyes. I promise to catch everyone up soon on how things went before this unfortunate thing. Love to all!
