This has not been a good week for me in terms of my health. Last Saturday I went hiking with my mom, sister and Paul and although I did wear sunscreen and a big floppy hat, being caught out in the summer sun with long stretches of no shade was just not a good idea. Since I actually didn't feel very sick while I was out there I was hoping it would be okay, but this week I've been noticing some mild arthritis which I haven't really had for months. I've also been having some mysterious pain in my left ribcage which radiates through to my back. Hoping that it's nothing more than gas/IBS since it's intermittent and never lasts more than a few minutes at a time. It has been bad enough that it woke me up once this week and some of the episodes have been painful enough that I've felt like throwing up. I also have a sinus infection that I can't seem to get rid of which has been giving me sinus headaches all week.

So because of all of this I've called in sick yesterday and today because I really don't want this to escalate into a full on flare. I'm hoping that if I just get some rest and try to take care of this I can nip it in the bud. My doctor has finally starting decreasing my meds in the hopes that I can be drug-free by the spring but I'm pretty sure if things flare up right now that will not happen. Which is really depressing. Because it will probably push being able to even start thinking about getting pregnant out into 2011 or beyond.

I'm just feeling really blech. I hate being sick in the summertime.
