It all Started at about 2am- burning nose, sniffles.
First thing this morning (Sunday October 20) I ran to Walgreens and bout Zicam spray.
It's comically really- I rush to Walgreens in my PJ's in this urgent mission to kill these germs so my surgery isn't postponed for the second time....Yet I am so cheap (actually I prefer FRUGAL), that I made time to grab 2 flyers, compare products and clip 2 seep rate coupons to knock 40% off the price (Fist pump-YES!!!).
So I get the Zicam- don't read All o te directions- and do 4 squirts in my mouth.
Suddenly I'm not only dizzy, have a burning nose- But I'm super weak and feel like up chucking.
I lay down- close my eyes. 2 hours later, I am actually feeling better!
I re-read the directions and now suddenly see the part I skipped over - Do Not Take On An Empty Stomach!
Hubs went to the store to pick up dinner ingredients and also got fresh ginger root and lemons.
I grated some ginger, added fresh squeezed lemon juice, dark honey and aTangerine Herbal tea bag. I drank a cup and took it easy.
While making dinner- my energy rushed right out of me. I was suddenly really weak, dizzy and desperately needed to lay down. Hubs complies- finishes cooking while my little kid set the table and my big kid dished it out and served. (Did I mention how AMAZING My hubs and kids are?)
I barely ate- chills set in. I managed to eat a few bites of hubs fantastic capreese salad.
Now I'm in bed at 9pm- took / NyQuil gel caps, 4 squirts of Zicam and am trying to get my body relaxed and tired to sleep.
Now I have to call the surgeon tomorrow to see if I can still have surgery. My body aches, nose burned and have the chills.
Fingers crossed!
NyQuil is kicking in. Night!
