whats happening in the clinic, why do they disappear, c25k

WHATS HAPPENING IN THE CLINIC
this is what happening in the clinic this week
we finally are seeing first cases of the flu this year
so it is here already just not in big numbers
symptoms are headache, fever, sorethroat, cough,
body aches, sometimes nausea vomiting diarrhea

would get your flu shot especially if you are a high risk patient

once school started started to see a lot of strep throat
symptoms are fever headache sorethroat  sometimes
nausea vomiting diarrrhea
now is easily diagnosed with a quickie strep test

mold ragweed fall elm mold allergy counts are high
seeing a lot of itchy eyes nasal congestion cough
some people can manage the symptoms with once a day
nondrowsy antihistamines such as loratidine or cetirizine
there are also prescription medications to use to control the symptoms

upper respiratory illness not flu is here with symptoms similar to
the flu-fever headache sorethroat cough
this usually clears without prescription medications

are seeing the tail end of a gastroenteritis illness(no pun intended)
symptoms are nausea vomiting diarrhea fever  
usually resolves with just fluids and limited diet

WHY DO THEY DISAPPEAR
why do they disappear those ink pens
use a gel ink pen    have to use black     buy them by the box
loose them by the box also      where do they go
sometimes they just suddenly reappear  
know they have ruined some of my shirts and pants and
some of my wife shes clothes     maybe maybe theres the answer

C25K
my c25k niece just finished the third week of the couch to 5 k prep
no foot pain      but she hurts every where else    welcome to old age
hahahahahahah      keep up the progress


race for the cure is happening this month through out the us
several people reading this blog are involved in several states
support them as they race walk for the cure
my nephews wife she is almost to her goal
(correction now she is at goal-congratulations)
