Sick

So, not this past Sunday, but the one before that, I woke up really nauseous. I had been quite intoxicated the night before though, so I wrote it off to my version of a hangover. However, after eating, I still felt terrible, so I took some Tums and felt better. By the end of the night, I was firmly planted in front of the toilet, and I felt just awful. Finally I went to bed, and was ok.
The next morning, I woke up not nauseous, but with like, a bone rattling cough. Whatever. I didn't worry about it.
This continued through Thursday, until I called my mom, and she got me a doctor's appointment on Saturday. I went home Friday.
On Saturday, the doctor diagnosed me with bronchitis. Very serious bronchitis. And gave me this stuff called clindamycin. Which has some nasty side effects, but like, it was that or hospital, soooo, clindamycin. I took it, and felt slightly nauseous about an hour later. But nothing terrible. So I though it was ok. But then, when I took my second dose later that night, I thought I might actually die. For real. I was feverish with fits of shaking/somewhat seizing and dry heaving and shooting stomach pains and I was scared. I still didn't go to the hospital though, but I'm pretty sure I shouldn't take that stuff ever again. Ever.
But, because I hadn't had enough water with it, I decided to try it again the next morning. I was ok for an hour and a half...And then it hit again. No more real shaking, just chattering, and nausea. So we called the doctor and she switched my medicine.
So now I have this other stuff, and I wake up with a rough taste in my mouth and a very sour stomach. Very sour. So I went to the infirmary yesterday, and the aprn was like, mmm maybe you should take something else. But then we decided no, I'd finish this.
I took another dose 2 hours ago, and now I have red rashes all over my chest.

:( I think this might be serious.
