Apple a Day

I went to the doctor today, finally. He asked me a few questions, listened to my chest, front and back. He said I have minor bronchitis and prescribed medicine for three days. Avoid oranges, eat apples.

Then my mom asked about my thinness, my diet, meditation, and yoga. The doc told me that vegetarianism is fine, but to eat beans for protein and take B12 supplements. I noticed I was a bit defensive about my diet, but I tried to dampen my ego and listen to what the doctor was saying.

I went home and took the meds. “MAY CAUSE DROWSINESS, DO NOT DRIVE VEHICLE” was no joke. I suddenly couldn’t focus on writing and had to lie down. I still felt drowsy when my dad woke me up for dinner two hours later.

Three days of meds and rest should go by quickly, especially if the expectorant keeps knocking me out like it did earlier.

Let the 72 hour nap begin!
