Feeling a little better

I went to the doctor again yesterday because I still had sinus / chest congestion. He had me get a chest x-ray and some blood work done and then come back to him. The chest x-ray looked good (that’s a good thing) and my white count was slightly elevated. He told me it is bronchitus most likely bacterial. He put me on three new drugs: azithromycin (anti-biotic), prednisone (I don’t know what this is for) and albuterol (an inhaled stereoid commonly used by asthmatics). The combination seems to be helping. I still have chest congestion but it seems like it is getting better, I attribute this to the new anti-biotic.

The one bad thing is now I’ll most likely have to miss the hike this weekend as the doctor advised me not to go. Bummer. Oh well, I hope I continue to feel / get better!
