SAS

So far this year, Will has had two ear infections and is currently battling a sinus infection. Dave has been sick twice this year as well and I had a stomach bug. I'm currently struggling with strep throat. Of course on top of my sickness I do not have health insurance. Luckily we have a clinic in our grocery store which is rather affordable. The doctor could tell I was pretty bad and the strep test came back positive right away. He told me I was what they use as a technical term, SAS. Hence the title of this post.. SAS = Sick As Shit. He hit the nail on the head.

I'm really not feeling any better yet even with the antibiotic and mild narcotic I've been given. I've been in an insane amount of pain. The narcotic hasn't helped much at all. It was supposed to numb my throat and help me sleep. I haven't slept more than an hour at a time in the last three days. I haven't been able to eat. I haven't been able to run. I have a race next Saturday. First one of the year and I'm freaking out that I won't be back to 100%.

On a brighter note, during my stomach flu in January I lost a few pounds. Since I haven't been able to eat in three days, I'm hoping to lose a few more! For now though, a break from the blog is needed as I"m getting dizzy typing this. Hope everyone stays warm this weekend with the impending snow!!
