New graphic & a fic rec (NCIS) plus the state of me

[livejournal.com profile] xanthelj has written a fabulous sequel to her wonderful story, 'Andy'. It's called 'Ghosts' & forms a really lovely epilogue. I can totally recommend it.
She also asked me to make some cover art, which I was more than happy to do. :)

It's here: Ghosts art

On a less positive note, I went to see the doctor this morning. She's given me some antibiotics for now but is a bit stumped as no infection was showing up in my water sample. She's sent it away to the hospital for further testing.
I'm just hoping the antibiotics can sort it out - the symptoms are hellish. :(

I'm trying to keep my mind off them by being creative...

So, the current count is 4 out of 24 completed.

*iz cryptic*

Hi P! I'm going to send you a PM with some tips to help relieve symptoms. Hope you feel better soon. *hugs*

I'm so sorry to hear you're not better yet....I hope the antibiotics sorts it all out. Many hugs!!

I slipped in the ice last night and twisted both knees. Last night I read Xanthe's Coming Home for comfort, today it's Make A Wish :) I've got Echoes lines up for after :)


if you're up to what I think you're up to: Squee!

Oh, no! I do hope you'll feel better soon. I can relate - knee problems are not good.
*hugs*
CH is definitely a lovely feel-good read to help cheer you up, though. :) Hee! Lovely to hear that you're reading MAW, too.

if you're up to what I think you're up to: Squee!

Well, I'm hoping to - if I can make the deadline. Still a lot to do, though! *g*

Aww, thank you so much! :)

You know, I may just do that & read 'Lionel's story'. I think I need some of his sweetness (& Emmett's composure.)

Sorry you're still poorly - hellish symptoms are hellish.

Thanks you.
Just waiting for the antibs to kick in now... any time would be great. :)

So sorry you're not feeling well . . . I hope it's something that can be sorted out simply - and speedily!

Thanks for the recommendation - I've got sucked into Xanthelj's writing now!!

Take care.

Honey, so sorry to hear about your problems & wondered if the following info will help - & that's presuming it's advice you've not already received.

When I worked we used to tell patients to drink at least 2 litres of cranberry juice over a short period of time depending on tolerance. It is researched-based - american - and as the cranberry is indigenous there one could think Hmm. But it works - I can personally vouch for that. The antibiotics seem to have a synergistic action & voila.

Love A

Thanks so much, A!

I had been drinking more CJ but must admit that I've stopped for the last few days as a friend mentioned that once the bladder wall was under stress from the infection, that the acid in the CJ would irritate it. I had planned to start again - as a preventative measure, hopefully - once this bout was over. I'm halfway through the antibiotics - I'll give the CJ a try again.
