The Joy of Being Sick....Not!

Well it has been a long while since I have updated my blog.....Since my last update not much has happened My boyfriend, His little brother, and Dad took me to my first KU football game....and even though we lost by one point.....I think I fell in love :D. Shortly after...on Sunday I started to catch a cold....but what I didn't realize that what I had caught was an Upper respirtory infection.....Let me tell you how much it sucks between the sore throat....cough and the barely wanting to stay awake....and not being able to breath....mmmm fun stuff. Something I hope I never have to catch again...My Dr. put me on 3 medications...and yelled a little that I didnt come in sooner because I could have gotten namonia....which is way worse and that if im not better when my medicine runs out not to wait and to go straight back in he seemed pretty concerned so I will be sure to do as I am told to get better. Right now he has me taking a anti-biodic for the virus infection....and a steriod because I have swollen tubes in my lungs...and on a narcotic coughing medicine to help quiet the cough and help me sleep....a total of 6 pills a day. Soon to come with Navy stuff.....I have a DEP meeting by Kansas City on thursday.....only if I am feeling better but its an all girls meeting so it shall be interesting......my recruiter also wanted me to join in a 5k run the 29th of this month I believe was the day but if I am not feeling better haha I will not be running in that race. My hope is to get better soon...and Hopefully I will get to keep my same leave date.
However other than being currently sick....All is well. :) Can't wait to get to chicago on Oct.30th :D yay!

Later,
Emily Rose Schmidt
