So today I woke up feeling terrible. My mom decided it was time I went to the doctors...again. I got to drive there, which was a good thing though. I'm getting way better. Anyway, we get to the office and I feel okay...just a sore throat and that's about it. Yeah, so I sit down on the like bed/table thing and she takes my temperature...97.1. That's pretty normal for me, maybe a little low. But she says my glands were swollen and something wasn't right with my tonsils. So she sticks the swab down my throat to get a test for strep. She left and kept me waiting for like 20 minutes. I started to feel kinda hot and I was sweating all kinds. So I decided to walk around the little room. Everything started getting really blurry and I thought I was getting sick. So I started to walk to the bathroom, but I only made it to the door. I tried to grab onto the door and say "I don't feel good" as the doctor was coming towards me saying "your strep test was negative..." when I blacked out and fainted. Oh my god, it was terrible. Thank God the doctor caught me and made me get on the ground and put my head on my knees. I don't really remember any of that though...but I had to lie down while she drew my blood. I was terrified because I already HATE needles and I was so scared something was wrong with me. The doctor just said she thought I had Mono and that she was gonna check for that. But it turned out that was negative too. I am not allowed to run or anything really until they figure out what's wrong. This sucks. Dance performance this weekend. Track meet this weekend. Track TRIALS AND FINALS next week. AND CHEER TRYOUTS NEXT WEEK TOO! Oh shit, whatever. I don't care, I'm still doing all of that. Screw being sick, I'm fine.
I know how you feel Erin!
