I'm sick

Yesterday I was very tired. I did a few jobs but rested on the couch between each one. I had an early evening that started with a hot bath and I was asleep by 8 pm. But I woke up in the middle of the night with a sore throat. I figure that it is just a cold but Sandy and the nurse at the Tom Baker insisted that I see a doctor. So I went to the doctor at 3:30 this afternoon. He was very cautious. He did a throat swab and sent me for blood work. He said that we have to watch for all little signs that an infection could be brewing when my immune system is compromised. I will get the results tomorrow if there is something of concern. My throat is quite scratchy and painful. My blood count should be starting to come up now but may be hindered when it is having to fight a sore throat. For all those who so kindly will scold me for doing too much will be happy to know that I spent the whole day on the couch watching TV and had an hour nap this afternoon. I will keep sipping hot tea and will again go to bed early tonight. Hopefully I will be feeling better tomorrow.

Love for now.
