The Dr appt yesterday was informative. He walked in the room and looked at us and said 'What is going on with you guys!'. We have the worse cases of mono he has seen. Me with my liver and fever and John with what he called 'dangerously swollen tonsils', high blood pressure and low grade fever. He started him on a steroid to attempt to reduce them from swelling anymore. He also required John to have more blood work( almost passed out on us).
So John also had his ultra sound this morning, swollen spleen. Not as big as mine though. I hold that record.
He has a follow up with the dr tomorrow. He will be checking out his throat again to see if the medicine is helping, so far it does not feel any different to him. Anyway, we are resting today- the nana or m-n law is here to help with Lucy. Lucy is also coughing and runny nose and stilll
GRuMPY!
Everyone thinks we have like the bird flu from China but all the drs feel too much time passed from our trip in August to when I got sick in December. Things happen. It was probably the girl at Wegmans that sneezed on me. Did you know once you get mono you can pass it along to other people for the rest of your life? It can stay in your system, go dormant and then not dormant at certain times in your saliva. So John and I better stay together forever because other people will not want to kiss us in the future!! ;)
Ok well off to close my eyes before Lucy is all ours again and she prys(sp?) them open.
