I love your messages...never too long! never end abruptly ~ always a pleasure to receive and to read. I'm just now online.....midnight and I'm heading to bed. been resting in my recliner, chatting w/son...he's been very, very concerned about me, even brought me NyQuil last nite which I've never put nor would I ever put in my body, but last night was tough. He was so sweet and concerned and brought it to me in one of my crystal glasses! So funny, men sons.

Anyway, I drank every drop, was looking for old pain pills I don't take anymore...anything to make the headache go away. I finally got a few hours sleep. Called and had video chat w/doc today. Sent to Mayo for Covid testing....almost none in town, just state/county/Mayo....Just got results now on portal, negative for Covid. My PCP was concerned even w/vaccine it might be positive.

Other options from PCP: facial/cranial nerve damage, not stroke, not sinus, maybe meningitis, maybe reflux related, or??? Since test is negative, I'll call in a.m. and he says he wants me to go to Mayo for cat scan re nerve and referral to?????
Suggestions?

On prednisone, doxycyline antibiotic for infected foot so we know it's not bacterial, Sudafed extra, rest, fluids, electrolyte water, sinus heated mask, and thank God for the bi-pap.
So, now off to bed.....

OH! Chewy has made my bird visitors so happy they're bringing extended families to visit! This afternoon, after home from covid testing and p/u meds, saw Blue-Jay, cardinals, several woodypeckers, yellow finch, and gobs and gobs of chic-a-dees! Mourning doves, little brown somethings, maybe female grosbeak, and more. What a sight! Made my day~
Blessings all and good-night.
