I broke down and visited the old saw bones. Turns out I don't have just a nasty cold. I have the flu. There is still nothing much that can be done about it. He prescribed a narcotic cough syrup (2.5 day supply) to help me get some sleep in the short term to help my body's immune system. Oh, and the conjunctivitis is viral, so all I can do is treat with warm compresses. The good news is that I have been doing that all along and he found almost no sign of it. The eye feels much better now.
Anyway, off to take my meds and go to sleep.

Hope you are feeling better soon.
Re: Hope you are feeling better soon.
I went to emergency last night because my breathing was obstructed. Small town hospitals are great. I was in and out in an hour.
It turns out the cough syrup my doctor prescribed is only good if you have an "unproductive cough". Since my cough was productive, the syrup just let the plegm build up until it blocked parts of the lung. Not breathing is kinda scary.

Or your doctor is trying to kill you...

I can handle the PPL; just not the incestuous bit.

I think I'm going to switch from tea to wine. Maybe the alcohol will help. If not, maybe I'll drink enough that I won't care any more. ;-)
