Well, Spit
Dec. 13th, 2007 11:00 amOne has to laugh.
I went back to the clinic today because Arni threatened to take me himself if I didn't (did I mention I'm a wuss?) so I bowed my head in submission (and no, no one took a picture to memorialise the moment) and went.
I don't have a sinus infection. In fact, I probably didn't the last couple of times I complained about pain "behind" my ear. According to the very bouncy-high energy newly-certified cute little girl doctor (I mean, really, she was bouncy and cheerful like a freshman who'd just made the dean's list. What a great pick-me-up she was on a dreary day.) But anyway, I, uh, er - have an inflamation of the parotid gland. Yup, the thing that makes spit.
The body never ceases to amaze.
And now with one steroid, one antibiotic, yet more vicodin and a call in for a CT scan and an ENT specialist, I am all set. But I guess I'd better find a different substitute swear word 'cause this one isn't working the way I meant it to be. :)
