Spring is Coming

Today(March 14, 2007, the date of this post) the temperature was up to 73 degrees Fahrenheit. It was a pretty nice day in the Susquehanna Valley and Central Pennsylvania today.
Too bad the weather will not remain like this. Saturday and Sunday the highs are only going to be around 42 degrees Fahrenheit.
I will be posting more later on next week. I will not be posting anymore until Sunday or Monday.

A Body Full of Infections

On Friday, March 9, 2007, I had a scheduled appointment with my PCP to check on the status of my qualifying for a patient assistance programs.
Although I did not find out anything on my patient assistance programs, I did go to the doctor's office feeling a little under the weather.
The nurse noticed I was having sinus problems, by the sound of my voice. My blood pressure was normal as well as my temperature.
The nurse left the room and about fifteen minutes later the doctor arrived in the room. He examined my sinuses and my throat. He examined my ears as well. The doctor noticed I had a slight ear infection. He also noticed my sinuses and throat were moderatly infected as well.
Because of my history of Urinary Tract Infections, the doctor had me do a urine sample as well.
It turned out I have a Urinary Tract Infection, which would be the sixth infection in two years. I had tests done for this in the past and nothing wrong was to be found.
I am now taking Amoxicillin 500mg three times daily for ten days.
If all goes well the infections should be gone. That is why I named this post a body full of infections.
