A Kinda Big Whoop

Whooping Cough that is.

My bacterial bronchitis proved otherwise, when my doc's office got the result of my bloodwork back today from my visit on 11/14 - WHOOPING COUGH.

The diagnosis is required to be reported to the County, which it was. And the County is required to contact me, which they did. I had a nice long conversation with Karen, of my County's Health Department and after timelining my illness and letting her know who lives with me, and yadda, yadda, yadda I am on my merry way and my loved ones are all on zPacks (including a liquid version for Em).

It's kinda dramatic, me being reported to the Health Department. Like, maybe I should be quarantined or something. Truth of the matter is, I am no longer contagious and am doing much better than my doctor and Karen think I should be doing. I will take that as a Thanksgiving blessing and possible miracle.

Whoop(ing cough) there it is.
