open sinuses
so, i went to the specialist today about my seemingly unending sinus infection. he doesnt think i still have an infection, but instead, an irritation. they're going to do a CT scan friday to see what's actually going on inside, and then, go from there. he's reluctant to throw antibiotics at it, which is good. he's also saying things like "aha! that's why your throat is so irritated!" and "hasnt your doctor recommended treatment with irrigation and antihistamines?" making me think this guy knows his stuff.
his predacessor certainly did, and this guy learned from him, apparently. he's now the doc to see.
i wont go into details on what they did to me while in the doc's office, but i'll just say there was a lot of looking around and poking, and that i can breathe better now. AHH! the unfortunate downside to all this is, the resident and her med student shadow were REALLY hot, so here I am with them looking up my nose, in my throat, and in my ears... *sigh* the resident was just my type, too.
