[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 88383, member: 1967"] Loth ~ She is on Augmentin and does tend to get sinus infections frequently. For some reason, she and husband get them every fall like clockwork. Thanks for the quick replies. I just tried to get her on her cell phone but she didn't answer. She did tell me that she was going to take her medication and go to bed so she may not be hearing the phone. I'll check with her in the morning and if it's not any better I'll take her to the ER. Edited after talking with difficult child: She just called back and upon further questioning, it sounds like she has had some phlegm with a little blood. I think it sounds like irritation from all of the coughing. She doesn't have any real pain ~ she described it as her chest is sore from the coughing. I told her to call us if it happens again tonight and if not we would decide what to do in the morning. Being my usual difficult child, she has decided that she has tuberculosis like Nicole Kidman's character in Moulin Rouge. I told her that it was HIGHLY unlikely that she had TB. She mentioned the guy in Atlanta that made the news flying across the world with TB. I asked her if she was on his flight and pointed out that since she wasn't I doubted she could have caught it from him. Leave it to my difficult child! ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
