Sniffles, Part 2

I am now referring to the current course of sinus/chest symptoms as the Michigan Plague. This round is much much more nasty than the virus that first struck our area. Patients are comming into the office begging for a shot -- to the head! I'm pretty sure that these people feel like thier faces are falling off and that breathing is a luxury they may not experience again.

For all of you suffering with this I say: This too shall pass, unfortunately not very quickly. This is a hanger-on-er. But this time I'm advising actually seeing the doctor (not the ER) and get a script for that antibiotic and maybe a real cough medicine. Then, STAY HOME! Try not to give this to your friends and co-workers. It's an ugly gift.

Feel better.............soon.
