Emu Flu

January 9th, 2006

It’s 3:15 a.m. I’m so tired and unwell, but I can’t sleep, and for a weird reason: The antibiotic my doc prescribed, Biaxin, is one I’m supposed to take with food. And I have been. But at night. So for the past three nights I’ve been awakened by the taste of poisonous Biaxin fumes rising up my esophagus. Yes, imagine a taste SO BAD it WAKES YOU UP. And won’t let you sleep. You try everything: mouthwash, eating, sleeping sitting up. Nothing works. Add this to the frustration of the antibiotic not making a dent on the sickness. I really don’t think I’ve ever been quite this sick, this long. I’m so over being under the weather.
