Home "sick"

I left work early today. Why? If you don't like reading about other people's sinus problems, I'd skip to the November 3 Birthday info. However, if you're a little twisted, read on! *^_^* Post nasal drip has been a problem for me for some ten years, now, I think. The volume has gone from very little to enough to make me nauseous in the morning, then back to very little many times. I get used to it. However, the times when it gets "heavy" are few and far between. However, I have been experiencing this for the last four days, now and it sucks. At first, I thought it was because of the way I was breathing, so my sinuses were a little sensitive. Since my throat never turned red or blotchy, and I never had a fever, and I felt that old familiar "mucus in the stomach" feeling, I knew that it was another post nasal drip episode. They usually only last for about a week, then it's back to normal. But how much did it suck feeling nauseous in the morning all weekend, then again yesterday and today? Very much, thanks for asking. I tried to push through work, but when the low to no-resistance tasks I had set up for myself were done, I knew that it was time to go home. I wasn't about to push myself feeling the way I did...just in case. I really just want my body to get rid of the gunk in my stomach and let me go! Lucky, I felt better today than I did for the past three, so tomorrow I'll probably be right as rain!
