That makes TWO times since I got my BFP that I caught the flu. But this time I had to one up myself. Last Friday (March 6th) I not only came down with the flu but I also caught a nasty case of strep as well as an ear infection in both of my ears. Things got so bad that at 2 a.m. on Tuesday morning I ended up dragging myself into the ER with a ridiculous fever and in massive pain from my ear infections. It was bad! Even now both my ears are still clogged. And I have a caught from hell but it's getting better slowly "VERY SLOWLY". I wasn't there long as the amazingly handsome ER Dr. wanted to get me out of there as fast as possible to avoid me catching anything else. It was the best treatment I have ever received in the ER. Not that I am a frequent visitor but in the 2 or 3 times in my life that I have ever had to go it was definitely one of the fastest. Armed with a prescription for Amoxicillin, Tylenol 3 and zofran, I headed home to bed. And that is where I have remained for the past few days. Only getting up to go to the bathroom, shower, occasionally throw up and spend 5 minutes checking my e-mail's until Patrick yells at me to get back in bed. It has been a rough week! I'm sorry to those that thought I was abandoning them, I'm still here and hopefully some time soon I will be fully back to normal.
On a scary note the very next day Patrick and I were watching the news about a shooting at the very same hospital I was at. Here is a link to the news story for anyone interested http://www.lvrj.com/news/breaking_news/41085847.html I am so grateful and glad that I was not there when this shooting went down. I think this would have given me a heart attack. Even just watching the story on the news freaked me out.
Well girls I better get back in bed. I really need to be back to normal by Monday if that's at all possible.

UGH! Amy! You poor thing, I hope you recover quickly and this is the last of the viruses for you. I'm glad you weren't in that ER when that shooting went down too.

I was wondering why you were MIA! I'm sorry to hear that you have not been feeling well - at all. It really stinks when you are preggo and sick, since you can't take much. I hope you get to feeling better and do not have to go through all of this again! Get better ... :)
Oh goodness, I'm so sorry you are sick again. We've been through lots of germs to and I know it is no fun when you are preggo.
