I seem to be hosting a variety of very unwelcome infecting guests: allergies, mild sinusitis, mild upper respitory infection, and mild cramping/diarrhea. And they're eating all the nachos and making a mess of the living room and it's not like they're ganging up all at once; no, they seem to be attacking in waves, like there's some immuno-drill seargent barking out orders: "Okay, allergies are on the front line! Keep the enemy in sight! Okay, all clear for the sinus infection! Now the lungs! Cramps! Move it, move it move it!"
It's highly bothersome. Last night at game was the cramps' turn at battle. I was trying to play some really good scenes, and all I could think about was how much my tummy hurt and how annoying it was. So today I took a cocktail of: astragalus, an immuno-boosting herb, Benadryl Cold & Allergy, Benadryl Allergy & Sinus, Imodium AD, and a motion-sickness tablet (the post-nasal drip was making me nauseous). Plus, I had a triple-espresso with vanilla, milk, sugar, and chocolate shavings from Starbucks.
I believe that the only thing that's happened so far is that I am a) very awake, b) somewhat feverish, c) itchy-eyed, and that a2) My cramps are gone, b2) I'm not sneezing as much, and c2) My throat doesn't itch.
But the allergy/sinus thing has gone on for the past week, so that's the thing I'm mostly trying to beat. Hey, Udgar, how would you handle this? :)
