Scratched eyeballs? Ouch!
Glad you saw the doc. Hope you get all that crud out of your lungs and get back into the running and biking! And watch the weather!

Prayers, prayers, prayers that it doesn't develop into valley fever.
eating
One of my best friends caught it and the doc treated it as pneumonia for a month before they ran a test for valley fever, she ended up sick for months and is now just getting active again after 6 months
At least you have a heads up so they will check for it and treat it right away.
