We're all a bunch of sickies..

Well, we're a fun bunch here..

I took Popeye to the vet a few days ago and he has Conjuctivitis. That's pink eye for dogs.. He has drops that need to be placed in his eye every 8 hours. He's not a fan. I also can't explain to him that it will help him like I could with a human.. 

Today I went to the doctor because I think I have another sinus infection. She sent me home with a nasal spray, nasal mist (as opposed to the neti pot because I am not doing that!!) and suggested I start on the generic of Claritin. I already did start the generic of Claritin so I'm glad she suggested that. She's not sure why I keep getting sinus infections but it might start out as allergies and just go to that.. I've been getting one about every 2 months for like... a year and a half now.. It's quite a long time. I'm tired of getting them. She also sent me home with a prescription for an antibiotic if it doesn't get better with all the sprays. She also suggested that I see an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor to get a CT of my nasal cavity to see why I'm getting so many sinus infections.. Nobody has ever suggested that before so that was nice. She also said that they like to do that before surgery... So that got me a little worried..

I just tried the nose spray stuff and let me first say, I don't like things up my nose. I was really scared to just shoot liquid up there.. It was weird. I'm not a fan either... I get where Popeye is coming from now....
