We Are Family

Wondering why I hadn’t been blogging nor blog hopping recently? This lady is sick. We went to the hospital yesterday and the EENT told me that I have sinusitis and Otitis media. Good thing it is nothing super serious that would require a colon cleanse. Hahaha!

My head hurts like crazy and I can’t stay infront of the PC for a long time. I even had a difficult time in the airplane ride as the pressure is too much for my ears to handle. The doctor wants to put me on antibiotics but the problem is the medicine isn’t compatible with breastfeeding. If I am to take that, I wouldn’t be able to nurse B.boy for at least 1 week. I don’t know if the little boy can cope at night if we withhold nursing him. I’m still unsure of what to do. The doctor offered another alternative but he said it might not make me well. I need to get well as it’s been a week that I’m away in the office and I’m very embarrassed to extend it a bit more.

They also ordered for a CBC test as I have a lot of bruises all over my body. It was released today so here I am waiting for the doctor. I hope the lab results show nothing serious. If it shows bacterial infection, then I really need to take antibiotics. I’m sure there are antibiotics that are compatible for breastfeeding as weaning him abruptly would be very hard. The biggest hurdle is how to make him go to sleep at night. He’s so used nursing himself to sleep.
Oh I hope I will get better soon. It’s so hard to be sick this long.
