I gave up and called the doctor this morning. When I wake up I am generally feeling pretty good. But I used my good cardiac stethescope and listened to my lung sounds in front. I must admit that I'm not really sure I can still call myself a nurse anymore since I have forgot so many things but I do know what a good lung sound is and what one sounds like when it's not good. And mine landed in the second category. So I went and got a chest xray and he started my on Cortisone. Oh, I hate to take that stuff. It tastes so bad. Chocolate very quickly removd that from my mouth though! I won't get the result of the chest xray until Monday. I could shoot myself for not calling yesterday!
