Niki's Neverending Adventure

Yesterday was awful! At work on Thursday afternoon, I started feeling bad. Had chills, was nauseous, and had back and stomach pain. It was worse when I got home that night. I just took a shower and went to bed. I was scheduled to work Friday so I knew I needed to wake up early to decide how I felt and if I needed to call in or not. When I got up I felt awful and called into work. Luckily I was bale to go back to sleep but every move I made hurt so bad. I got up at 9am and could barely walk. The only position I could get slightly comfortable in was laying down. So I called my mom in tears because I hurt so bad and she came and picked me up and took me to the Dr. I know, I'm 24 and calling my mom when I don't feel good. I don't care, she makes me feel better!! Anyway, ends up I had a really bad bladder infection! I figured it was either that or a kidney infection. So I got my antibiotics and went on my way. And let me say, Cirpo is awesome! I felt so much better after one pill!! Plus the extra strength Tylenol made my pain much better and I was able to eat some soup for dinner last night. But anyway, that was probably the worst pain I've ever had! Much worse than when I tore all those ligaments in my ankle! I feel alot better this morning, not 100% but much better. Needless to say I won't be doing my 4 miler today and not sure how many more days off I will take. Guess it depends how I feel. I'm hoping I can still go to my BFF's going away party tonight! I am also heading to St. Louis with her tomorrow and I am SO happy I'm not hurting anymore! Sorry if this was TMI, I'm a nurse so nothing bothers me:) Hope everyone has a great weekend!!
