Last Thursday I went to the doctor with what I thought was a spider bite on my leg that got infected and thought I had blood poisening because I had a red squiggly line going up my leg and it hurt really bad. Well I left the doctor diagnosed with shingles. I was completley dumbfounded. I immediately got on antibitotics and was down in the dumps. I had felt like my body was trying to get sick the whole week before and I didn’t go to the gym once and then I didn’t go after thinking I had shingles. Well by that Saturday all my pain was gone and I didn’t have any rashes like they said I would get. But I continued my meds thinking maybe it was just keeping the rash at bay. By Tuesday I felt so good and still had no rashes and my one bump started to go away that I went to the gym. Wednesday I called and told the nurse how I was doing and she thinks I was misdiagnosed. I said maybe it had something to do with the fact that the doctor had shingles two weeks prior and he’s on a shingles kick. So this whole time I think feeling like crap was all in my head or I was just tired. I go to the doctor this afternoon to find out what was really wrong. I think it was either a bite or a bump from dry skin and it just got infected. But luckily the antibiotics I was on took care of whatever it was. Anyways that’s the reason for my lack of exercise and motivation lately. But I have been to the gym 3 times so far this week and plan to go Sat and Sun. My goal is to not miss a workout for a month. I also renewed my gym membership for another year, yay! Toned and fit here I come!
