It's almost over. It's almost over. It's almost over.

And I'm so very ready for it to be over.

2013 hasn't been my worst year ever--it's not even in the top five worst years ever--but it has been the year when I've needed to use the widest variety of antibiotics I've ever used in a single year, which must count for something.

Infections are exhausting. Antibiotic resistance is a huge problem. And 2013 is almost (thank God!) over. For all of us, may the arrival of 2014 bring more good things than 2013 and far fewer of the bad.

Feel better this year!

Unfortunately antibiotic resistance won't be any less of a huge problem in 2014. But hopefully it'll be less of a problem for you personally.

for the first time for me,when i took amoxicillin for a sinus infection,it didn't work. i then had to use an expensive more broad-spectrum one. it is quite scary. i try not to think about it too much.

And a lot of the broad-spectrum ones have frightening potential side effects. Seriously, what's with the spontaneous tendon bursting? I don't want that! I like my tendons unburst, thank you.
