At least I can't get anthrax

UTI.

Ugh.

3 days of Cipro coming up.

Ugh.

Sorry, TMI! Maybe it's all the varicose veins and BO talk...

I"m sure some of you have experienced the joy for yourselves, though.

I feel your pain and I am SOOOO sorry. Just know that Cipro is a UTI-kicking bad ass. Feel better.

One more thing--those pills that turn your pee orange (I know, more tmi)? They totally work.

Ooooh, I feel for you...I used to get them ALL the time. Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks, you guys! I am feeling wiped out! I'm not sure if it's the drugs or just knowing that I am ill (and feeling allowed to be tired). At least I don't feel as completely lazy as I was feeling. I think I watched TV for about 8 hours yesterday.

oh MAN, I'm sorry. I also used to get them all the time (yay, TMI club!) And I second dr. medusa - those pills are muscle relaxants and they obliterate the symptoms until the antibiotics kick in. And of course, mainline cranberry juice - if you can get the super-bitter unsweeting organic stuff it really does work well.

oh, and chocolate and a comfy place to lie down and give into the exhaustion of being sick and knowing you're sick. feel better soon!!!
