Whatever it is, you need to KNOW what it is. No matter what it is, I'm sorry you're having all this go on. Don't give up until you find the cause. And I'll bet you're cute in an eye patch. :-}Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-90445730886412660692007-03-21T06:48:00.000-05:002007-03-21T06:48:00.000-05:00But I wash my hands before every serving (practica...But I wash my hands before every serving (practically), and wipe everything down with sanitizer and water....and I am NOT the least bit snotty.

I'd take whatever antiobiotics the MD prescribed, like Lisa said 1500 mg of amoxy is alot & ditto on the diflucan. I know exactly how I used to get it all the time: my secretary and the guys I worked with had young kids who were always freaking sick. The parents were germy incubators. I should have worn a mask all day. You are around people face to face all the time so the likehood of catching something is high. Plus you touch things they touched, I assume. Buy vats of Purell & keep them on every flat surface.

The doc was talking Bell's palsey last week, but now that my eyes aren't working in tandem, I kinda doubt it. And it's not FAST enough to be Bell's. Everything I've heard/read says it's like a homerun out of the park. Bap! This has been going on and on and on. And one side of my face is numb, but not in a fixed spot. I still smile on both sides of my face.<BR/><BR/>Did an MRI today. Showed nothing. More at the doctor's tomorrow.junior_goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00014909174642487572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-67894824953833444202007-03-20T22:59:00.000-05:002007-03-20T22:59:00.000-05:00Sorry to hear you're still suffering.

So...I honest to god want this to be a sinus infection....but i gotta ask.....did anyone do a neuro workup...i'm not talking cat scan...i'm talking making you squish your face up, blow cheeks out, stick tongue out, move eyes all over the place in tandem...run something soft then something prickly over your face etc...? If not...please go ask for one ....just for grins....it'll be fun...or maybe not...but not bad.LisaW.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00127886567995750258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-4955592835907531602007-03-20T22:14:00.000-05:002007-03-20T22:14:00.000-05:00Crap.

Oh, hell, I am blaming this on the damned "mulch fire" (read out-of-control garbage dump fire) that's been going on 30 miles away since December.junior_goddesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00014909174642487572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29470853.post-81455160215590679742007-03-20T21:26:00.000-05:002007-03-20T21:26:00.000-05:00Bets, I have been absolutely crippled by sinusitis...Bets, I have been absolutely crippled by sinusitis in the past, unable to work, walk, think, sit upright. So believe it. Once I returned home after an MD visit confirming the sinusitis and saw a puppy wandering alone near my home. I stopped (I had ZERO business driving) and coaxed the pup to me to look for a collar tag and as I leaned forward, my equilibrium exploded and I fell forward to the ground scaring the beejezus out of the pup who ran away and showing my neighbors what a drunk home at mid day looks like. Amoxicillin will not work, you need the heavy duty stuff. Make sure you take acidophilus to counteract the evil wreaked by the antibiotics. Stay in bed, darkened room, waited on hand & foot & it will pass.Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843470618654743971noreply@blogger.com
