This so stinks that I’m sick but I’m so glad it didn’t happen during finals. I have chronic allergies and sinus problems and I think I have a sinus infection but my doctor is getting stricter about giving antibiatics. She says you can’t really know if it’s a sinus infection until the second week. So, I have to suffer a headache, congestion, sore throat, cough and nausea for two weeks before she will give me meds. I know what I got, I know from the headache what it is. On Monday, if it doesn’t clear up (I’m taking Claritin D) I’m going to get an appointment and get my meds.
