Girl Blog Has Made Come-Back!

Alas I have returned to the girl blog! A lot has happened in the last year and a half, and thankfully, in that time I have had the chance to learn many new things pertaining to what I believe is crucial girl-knowledge! And it's not just stuff girls should know (like products, style, and personal rants), I really like to share health-related things and tips that anyone can benefit from! I can't wait to begin to share... it feels like it's oozing out of me :)

Today I experienced an unfortunate mishap. I puked out an antibiotic. It was terrible. Very uncomfortable, tasted disgusting, looked gross... I really should have listened to the pharmacist when she said to take it with food. But she really wasn't trying to sell me on it so I didn't take her advice seriously! So for tonight, I would just like you all to take this bit of advice from MY mistake. EAT FOOD with pills, especially when you are directed to!

A couple "other" facts about antibiotics that you may not find on the label:

• your physician doesn't always know if you're allergic to them, so be sure to tell them before you get your prescription!
• they can render birth control pills useless... so use extra protection!
• not all antibiotics are equal! They are each good at treating a specific nature of illness, so don't borrow "the extra" pills your friend had left over in her medicine cabinet to save money! They probably expired and they may not help at all!
