Medical Update

[dcseain]

I went for my follow-up STD panel, including HIV, last week. Negative, except for Syphillis. This summer's injections were not enough to get rid of it. So on 1 Dec, back to Dr. Sall at Infectious Disease Specialists of Virginia to see how many more Bicillin L-A injections i will need. Sigh. It does explain the tiredness and continued chronic sinus/upper resp illness though. Upside, i'm non-contagious.

blech. I hope it clears up right smartly this time. Psychotic breaks 10 years from now are NFG.

Oh, no. I am so sorry - but I am glad that you do have an explanation of why you have been feeling so ill lately. Why are they making you wait so long for more medication?

My doc's out of the office next week, and 08:30 on the 1st was next available appointment. So i'll get 1st injection that day, and will have, i'm guessing, 6-8 weeks of injections, on Friday AMs after that.

I had to wait 3 weeks for an appointment last time too, and Dr. Sall said this was not a problem.

Thanks, and indeed. I'm so tired of being ill, which i have been for much of the last 12 months.

(hugs) Sorry to hear the sad news, but it's good to pin down the problem. Best of luck.

That sucks. I'm sorry. On the other hand it does add to your cachet as a serious classical musician! May you feel better soon.

{{{Hugs}}} Sorry about that. I'm glad you know what it is, at least.

Being chronically ill sucks; hang in there.

That is an upside about not being contageous, at least. But still, another round of shots. Eh, but this round should do it and then that'll hopefully be it.
