Sinus Infection

Turns out the relentless sinus headache is a sinus infection. I had a clue last night when I realized that I just felt like shit all around, a little nauseated (non-prego) and just out of it. Also, every time I moved, it felt like my eyeballs were going to explode.

I went to my GP today and he took blood and my counts were elevated, so he put me on an antibiotic.

It's really SO not fun to have a massive headache for 36 hours straight. I'm not my normally pleasant self.

Are you really stuffy too?  My yoga teacher taught us something on Wednesday for stuffy noses...you take the hand that is on the stuffy side (if your nose is stuffy on the left side, take your left hand) and tuck it in your armpit, thumb to the front.  Hold it there for about 5 mintues, and it should help drain it.

No, I have no idea if this works, but B jsut got over a sinus infection too, so I know the pain and annoyance hta tgoes with it.  Feel better!
