Ugh, I am sick
I think I have a sinus infection- no I am almost positive I do. I know if I go to the doctor, he is just going to prescribe me antibiotic as always. Last time He gave me 500 mg of Amoxicillin every 8 hours. He gave me refills as well. I was going to start taking them but am worried since I am within days of ovulating.
I know that Amoxicillin is a Class B drug, but am still nervous about taking anything, because I don't want it to interfere with TTC this month. At the same time, I do not want to worry about making the other people around me ill, especially not DH.
And to add insult to injury, my temp spiked to 98.16 which I NEVER have (my normal temp is always somewhere in the 96s or 97s,) which must mean I had a low grade "fever". Hopefully I will just discard this temp and my temp will be back to normal tomorrow.
I just don't know what I should do . . .

Re: Ugh, I am sick
I'm so so sorry. I have had a sinus infection before so I know what you are going through. Here are some . If you really want to wait, have you ever tried the Neti-Pot? My doc recommended it to me for my last sinus flare-up and it really helped. FM me if you want more info.

Re: Ugh, I am sick
I have a neti pot and am going to use it today.
I just don't know if I should be worried about taking antibiotics . . .

Re: Ugh, I am sick
i can tell you that you don't share a blood stream with a baby until you are 5 weeks.
if you need an antibiotic, i'd take it. speak to your doc about TTC and let him/her know. the best way to get pregnant is to be healthy....you have to worry about yourself first!

I am taking my anti-biotics. I just get so paranoid about everything now.
Thanks
