Need to Vent

I had to go back to the doctor today. Now I have an upper respiratory infection (potential pneumonia was mentioned) and a urinary tract infection. I'm on an antibiotic that is supposed to cover both infections. It's one I've never taken which is scary since I am allergic to 4 different antibiotic groups. And two I became allergic to the first time I took them. I've had to board my dog which I can't really afford as I cannot care for her at least for a few days. I get short of breath quickly with any activity so walking her is not possible right now. I was so excited about finding the indoor pool and soon after, got my first bladder infection. I was sick last week but hoped to chalk it up to PMS so I put off going to the doctor until today. Now I wish I had gone last week and caught this thing earlier. It's all so frustrating and I don't understand what is causing this. I know stress compromises the immune system so maybe that is playing a part. I have a couple of stressors right now that I worry about constantly which doesn't help. I really need to do better about turning things over to the Lord.

Okay. That's it. Got it off my chest. Hopefully the antibiotic will kick in quickly and I will be better soon. Please please please please please.
