Tuesday afternoon: my nagging cough gets worse. i go to the doctor. its tonsillitis, but not strep, just take some tylenol and take it easy. sweet
Wednesday: ok, i dont feel well. ill take today off. no biggie.
Wednesday night: this may be it. i might not make it. it is pure misery just to sleep. i cant swallow, drink, breathing has become tough
Thursday morning: i go back to the doctor since, well ive only gotten progressively worse. yeah, apparantly i developed an abcess in the tonsil area, which is placing pressure on my throat and THAT is why i am so miserable. i have to go to the ER immediately.
(sidebar: an abcess is a little pocket of pus, a pimple if you will)
Thursday midday: heres the story-i am here at the ER, i need to get an IV put in, then i go to the Ear-Nose-Throat guy. long story short: he cuts the abcess, i bleed for a few mins., i go back to the ER, get shot up with morphine.
Thursday night: i get shot up with some antibiotics, i sleep
Friday morning: im out. i leave Baptist after a crazy 2 day span.
and yeah, that all really happened
