BEDFAST FOR THE WEEKEND
Woke up Thursday morning with a sore throat and it only got worse that day. Still, I went on my day hoping it would disappear. I even played volleyball Thursday night! (That was fun...minus me wheezing all over the place.) I was really tired out Thursday night and I passed out once I got home. Missed dinner. Woke up around midnight and made myself some food and read some stuff for my quiz the next day. However, I slept in a REALLY WEIRD position so I woke up feeling a major muscle aching pain on my sides.
Friday was when my cough got worse. In fact, I sounded like a frog. I didn't want to talk to anyone, not only because of my voice, but because I didn't want to get anyone else sick too! Anyway, I felt miserable because my sides were aching too and my arms were a bit sore, either from volleyball or from my sickness, or BOTH. After class, I bussed straight to my doctor's. He said I had a cold only, and at that time, I was still fine. However, when I left his place to go to my workplace (aka the pharmacy) to get my prescription filled, I started getting chills and a hint of a headache coming on. It didn't help that it was COLD outside. When I was at work, my coworkers were like, "GASP H1N1?!" and it was pretty funny, and my manager told me to call her if I really couldn't work tomorrow. I got home and took my meds immediately then went to bed. That's when it all turned to hell. I started sweating profusely, and I had a fever. My cough went crazy, and having asthma doesn't help because I had trouble breathing. I ended up being nursed my mom. My manager called in too, and she said that on second thought, I shouldn't go in at all to work to be safe and that I should rest up anyway. Thank goodness because I DEFINITELY COULDN'T WORK!!!
I was bedfast for that night up until Saturday night. I only woke up when my mom came in to wake me up to take my meds. I had no sense of time or whatever! I remember I tried to wake up to eat on Saturday and I had NO appetite. I'd see the food or smell it and I'd feel nauseous. =( I had to force myself to finish it, but lying down in between because I didn't want to throw up. Saturday night, it finally calmed down a little. I figured I needed to get up and move a bit whenever I could so I did.
This morning I woke up and I felt tons better. Still coughing really disgustingly though, but it doesn't hurt as much! And I can eat again! And I'm not sweating profusely anymore! Whew! I feel miserable though and I have no energy to study, which makes me really screwed for my upcoming midterm. I feel really bad too because I'm not sure if I have to go in for work or not tomorrow, but if I don't, I won't be going in for a while thanks to my fuglyass midterm schedule. Sigh. I still have to pay my dad back for credit card purchases and Domo is one of them. Domo is hella expensive. He's more expensive than my trip to the Caribbeans! =S
Well, hopefully I'll get back on track soon. It kinda depresses me how I don't even have time to hang out with my friends anymore, so how do I have time to be sick?! I DON'T!!! AHHHH!!!
