When
we saw our Family
Doctor on
Friday,
he quickly diagnosed my problem as a Plugged
Sweat Gland
that turned into a Cyst.
With instructions of Warm
Compressions
and Antibiotics
we were soon on our way. Our first stop was the Health
First Pharmacy
to get the Pills
and some hope of relief. Throughout the next Three
Days,
I did as I was instructed, but there was no Relief.
Instead, what I was feeling was greater Pressure,
Pain
and the Smell
was getting worse. Even
Kathy was smelling it today.
We enjoyed a bowl of Penne with the Homemade Spaghetti Sauce that our daughter Karen and son-in-law Greg had brought over about a Month ago. They cook then package Homemade Meals to take to work. When they over produced a few dishes, they passed them over for us to use. They have all tasted great and saved us a lot of time in the Kitchen.
Most times, people's problems are the cause of a reaction between Medications. I started researching the Injections that I have getting at the Pain Care Clinic and found that swelling could occur if there was any kind of a Growth present before. By midafternoon I had already taken my full dosage of Antibiotics, but this afternoon's discomfort had gotten worse. Like our Family Doctor had said, "If it gets worse, go to a Walk-In Clinic", so that was where we headed.
Kathy had to help me with my Jacket, because I was losing maneuverability to do it on my own.
There is a Walk-In Clinic a Half Mile up the road that we've used before, so that was where we went. Being on record with a location speeds things up and saves a lot of paperwork. With only minutes left before they closed for the day, I was called in. Kathy immediately helped me shed my Jacket. The moment the Doctor walked in, I started explaining the situation, telling him our Family Doctor's last name, showing the Antibiotics and the Injection name. When I lifted my shirt, his eyes grew wide. He was looking at at Very Red Two-Inch Diameter Cyst. He has changed the Antibiotic to something much stronger and Four Times rather than Twice a day, He also said to tell George of the change. I didn't mention his first name, so it shows they know of one another.
Our next stop was Health First Pharmacy where Danielle immediately filled the Prescription. Though it was not written, there is a possibility that this was supposed to be taken along with the other. She'll verify with the Doctor and call me back with the answer.
We stopped at Mary Browns to take advantage of their Monday Special for supper.
With the high only reaching 43 F (6 C) I dropped Kathy to the front entrance to our building. The "6 o'clock Local News" showed we could be seeing Flurries tomorrow.
We later watched a couple episodes of "Caught on Dashcam". They show clips from around the world. Lots of crazy drivers out there.
I'll be taking the second Pill before going to sleep. I can only hope to feel some relief in the next few days.
