An Ode to Modern Meds

So after suffering for 12 days with a horrible cold, cough, congestion, pain and having to work and function through it, I finally broke down and went to the doctor yesterday. He diagnosed me with having both bronchitis (fluid in the lungs) and sinusitis (sinus infection). I am on some antibiotics that are preggo-safe. Almost immediately I started to get relieve in the way of feeling like I was actually getting better. My cough is totally manageable and I can see an end in sight. I still had presentations today where I hacked and sniffed my way through, so I am home resting now, however, to all those out there that may have a cold--embrace the goodness of prescription meds and start on the road to recovery!!
