Just got home from the doc.

I got a chest x-ray and am getting a sinus CT tomorrow afternoon. He doesn't want to put me back on antibiotics until he gets the results back.

Also upped my nasonex to twice a day.

We talked about maybe getting allergy tested again but will wait for the x-ray and CT scan. Said my sinuses are pretty red and swollen from what he can see but doesn't think I have an infection right now nor does it sound like pneumonia. MY 02 was sat was good.

So...I am not dying. Thank goodness for that!

For now, rest, liquids, keep up the steam inhaler and wait and see!
