I guess I needlessly suffered some this week.

I'd been having to go to the potty a lot...and my left hand was seriously numb. Really really numb.

I was thinking that the potty stuff possibly was me retaining water from having steroids earlier this summer.

I finally tripped over the clue-by-four tonight about a half hour before the urgent care place I go to was going to close. Ran up there to have them check me for a UTI.

Gosh, guess what I have?! Yep. I'm a moron...you'd think with all the UTI's from Hell that I've had in the past few years, that I'd have recognized the signs.

I got my handy-dandy Rx for antibiotics and took one last night, (I actually havent been to bed yet) I sat around playing Sims3 tonight because I just didnt feel comfortable enough going to bed just yet.

I noticed about two hours ago that the UTI symptoms have eased up. I think my numb hand is getting better, but sometimes I cant tell if it's numb or not. Like I forget what it's supposed to feel like normally. The L'hermittes is irritating, if I try to brush my hair with my left hand, things go numb.

Now I've got a bunch of vertigo and cant sleep even if I tried.

I dont understand why I didnt recognize the symptoms. I've had enough UTI's that had flares following them around. (the double vision earlier this summer)

I hope it's not a bad thing that I didnt wait the whole 12hrs to go by before taking the second antibiotic pill. (I did wait at least 8hrs)

At least I had fun playing Sims3 tonight. I enjoyed trying to torture them.
