Nothing is wrong

Yesterday I returned to Urgent Care because it was a week since I finished the antibiotic and I'm still coughing my head off.  I thought they might give me another course of the antibiotic.  Well, the doctor listened to my lungs and said he didn't hear anything to suggest that I had pneumonia.  I had a chest X-ray and there was no sign of pneumonia or any other respiratory issue.  The only thing he could think of that might be wrong was a pulmonary embolism, so he sent me to the emergency room for a CT scan.  Five hours later I left the ER with no problems whatsoever having been found on the CT.  They sent me home with some cough pills and Flonase, and said the coughing would stop after a while.

So I'm back at square one, coughing like mad for no reason.  I'm worn out from coughing but otherwise well.  So I don't have to keep spending time resting and will try to get my life back in order.  That's means trying to catch up with all of your blips that I've missed.  It will take me a while.

This is a shot of the sky late this afternoon and by serendipity a gull flew through just at the right moment!
