This nasty looking thing on my arm just won't heal so I went to a Med. Express today ..... it kept bleeding everytime it was bumped and just looks awful. Well, as I thought ..... it's cat scratch fever, and I'm to keep an eye on the other 2 spots where he scratched me. All that explains the headache and the extreme fatigue. The doctor gave me a tetanus shot, and Rx's for 2 different antibiotics. She said to take my temp. every day - at least once or twice. If the other 2 spots show any signs of it, to come right in, but they shouldn't since I'll be taking antibiotic. And I'm to shower with Dial soap!
Honestly! What in the world is going on ..... it's just been a series of "stuff" ever since I moved here!

I'm glad you made the choice to go to the doctor instesd of waiting. I think it was a smart decision and I hope you feel better soon! Once you do feel better it's easier to deal with whatever happens day to day. Just keep reminding yourself that there are better days coming when you won't feel so overwhelmed. I make a list so I can see what I've marked off and that reminds me that I'm making progress. Keep touching base to let us know how you're doing. We care.
How are you doing?
