Hello Cipro :(

Unfortunately, I've been a little under the weather this week which has kept me from sharing with the world that I am an aunt (again!!!).  I was blessed with a nephew and a niece on June 20th!  Yes, two on one day and they aren't twins!!  I'm going to dedicate a post to these precious babies soon.

In celebration of my nephew, I went up to Indiana the weekend before last and I believe I caught something between the 2 hospitals and the airport...I'm thinking the airport.

It started last Monday evening with a slightly scratchy throat, which led to a sore throat Tuesday with a cough due to the sore throat.  Then, Wednesday, I felt like I hit a wall.  I was exhausted, achey, coughing (still not in the chest) and my sinuses were going bonkers.  I started feeling better Thursday and my lungs still felt clear.  But, somewhere between then and Sunday, the crap got into my chest.

I survived the last week on Mucinex, DayQuil, NyQuil, and cough drops.  Sadly, they didn't do the trick so I called the doctor yesterday...my CF doctor that is.  So, she called me in a prescription and I started it today.  She prescribed 750mg of Cipro to take twice a day for 14 days.

Here's hoping that will get rid of the funk!!  I've quarantined myself from holding the new babies - which is the worst part of all!  On a good note, I feel better then I sound :)
