Doctor

So today I went to the Student Heath Center up on campus to see if they could give me something for this terrible that I have. The doctor came into the room and just hear me cough once, and said, "You must be feeling really horrible!" I replied that I was and that I want to know what I have. He listened to my lungs and he told me that I fluid in my lungs. Well, yeah I knew I had that. I have been feeling it for the past couple of days, and I cough it up. So he had me do a breath test, I failed, which showed that my asthma was in place. Then he drew blood. He said that my blood count was way too high, even to fight an infection it was way too high. So I am going back in on Friday to have more blood drawn, and I am also on antibiotics. Other than those few things, he didn't exactly tell me what I have. He advised that I stay away from work though. I shouldn't work until I stop coughing up phlegm, since I am around kids and people who have families. I think I gave whatever I have to Zach. He is starting to get it now. Man, I feel horrible for doing that to him. He has enough on his shoulders, he doesn't need this illness also.
So today I got an e-mail from one of my professors saying that he didn't receive any quizzes for history class on this trip. I replied with my conditions, and he said that he would work with me on that. Especially with my migraines. I am so glad to have professors like that. He said to not worry so much about this class until I finish all the papers for Religion. I just want to give him a hug for that! Other than this illness that I have plus migraines with nausea; I am perfect. At least emotional wise I am perfect. Mom, Dad, and I went over to Zach's and had a talk with them last night. Went way better than I thought it would. Of course, the parents did most of the talking, but they did talk to us. I would've talked, but I have lost my voice for yesterday and today. That is why if you call me, I probably won't answer because I don't have a voice unless you are really good at hearing someone so raspy like I am. But back to the talk. I enjoyed it! I just hope that Zach enjoyed it also. He hasn't really talked to me for a couple days now. Big issue came up, and I think he is still upset about that. Let's just say that he isn't really happy with some people like I think he should. Well, I am going to go take some ibuprofen, and go to sleep. Get some well deserved rest from this coughing. ~*~Barbara~*~
