I haven’t had the best run of luck with my health as of late. About a month ago, I was plagued with a monstrosity of a canker sore for about a month, which spawned many baby canker sores right above it for a grand total of 10 canker sores at one time. I did everything I could, I used mouthwash, I used Orajel, I made a baking soda paste to spread on the canker sores (if you love pain, try this one), I gargled with salt water. And they only multiplied and got bigger. For a picture of this bad boy, check out my facebook photos.
Then, three weeks ago, I had a severe migraine for about 2-3 days. It seems as though the migraines are a constant companion about…every 28 days…if you know what I’m saying. Regular pain killers do NOTHING for those, though my sweet husband went out a bought me Excedrin for migraines, which helped a lot!
Then, two weeks ago, I felt the onset of a bladder infection. It wasn’t severe, so i thought if I drank a lot of water, I could flush it out. The next day, within a span of two hours, it went from tolerable to agonizing pain. (Iknow, I know, wipe from front to back, and pee after sex. I KNOW. My male doctor told me with my husband in the room) I was given antibiotics, which didn’t work, and so the pain lasted for another week before severe back pain accompanied it.
Kidney infection! I honestly thought I was going to die from the pain in my back and abdomen, I couldn’t sleep at all, and so I went back to the doctor, who gave me stronger medication, and a week later, I am all cured! Hopefully it lasts, everyone is getting a cold.
All this to say, I am thankful for good health, and the ability to eat food normally and to kiss my husband without worrying about pain.
