a self diagnosis

this one may even be right. i think i have croup. i sounded like a 13 year old boy in puberty yesterday, but worse. i feel a little better today, but i feel better during the days. i woke up last night at 3 coughing and had a hard time settling down. tomorrow i'm supposed to be in the pulmonary clinic. we'll see how long they want to keep me around since i sound like crap and don't feel much better.

anyone want to guess which rotation i'm on? i'm half way done. i'm lucky, too, because i actually get the entire Thanksgiving weekend off. some rotations aren't so nice.

i have gotten some of my Christmas shopping done, but i still have more. it was nice to be in the mall in the early afternoon last week without tons and tons of other people. i'm driving to Denver on the 16th of December to wander around the state for a little while. yippee.

  • Thanks Seth.

    I was right. Sort of. One short conversation with a pediatrician and she said 'parainfluenza virus'. The virus that causes croup but i don't actually have croup since i'm not 2.
