    Well isn't this just the way it always goes. less than 24 hours before a 25 hour bus ride with 5 more hours of layovers and I wake up feeling like I've been beaten with a ball bat. 101.5 fever and a headache that has seven different analgesic companies bidding for the rights to supply me with treatment. Fortunately I have some left over antibiotics from a previous sinus infection (I'm sure that's what I have...every single tooth in the top of my head is pounding right along with my pulse) and I'm going to hammer this thing hard over the next two days. Nothing like feeling rotten to make a boring event that much worse.

    Get yourself a good nasal spray, that'll help knock down the swelling in your maxillary sinus (which is making your teeth hurt). Hope you feel better!

    Thanks @BigHeadWeb. Yeah, some Afrin or something like it is a definite. Just have to work up the energy to make it to CVS.

    @Broke Down 69 I'd make sure the prescription for the antibiotic is current, I'm sure you'll have to undergo a drug test at Trans Am. I'd be a little nervous having unsubscribed medication in my system. May be just me, I'm a little weird about taking medication on the whole. Perhaps someone else will chime in in regards to this subject. Hope you feel better soon.

    No worries, the test is a standard 5 panel urine. Looking for amphetamines/weed/coke/pcp/opioids. Cipro is a very run of the mill broad spectrum antibiotic...plus I have the bottle still. Good idea about taking it with me.
     
    Pintlehook Thanks this.

    Better becareful, people around here will think you have nefarious
    intentions because you're aware of what they are testing in your urine.

    Have fun, don't lease, and don't be afraid to move on to a different company.

    Nefarious? Me? Why madam, I am a paragon of virtue and honor. Let me move quickly to avoid the certain lightening bolt headed for me.
