{{{{{{Askye}}}}} I'm sorry this has been rougher than expected.
So, I'm back from the doctor. Called a friend to drive me there because while throwing up, I was not fit to drive. Tummy started feeling better about half an hour before my appointment, and just as I was about to call and say I could manage for myself, she showed up at the door. She didn't want me to push it, so drove me anyway. I saw the same guy who treated my bite wound back in May. Fella has a nifty propensity to put refills on scripts for antibiotics. He gave me azithromycin and two refills, and advised clear liquid diet for tomorrow.
I'm now very tired. If the z. stays put for a few more minutes I might get really wild and take an Advil/Tylenol cocktail and have a nap.
