The right side of my throat hurts SO badly right now. It hurts to swallow anything, which is not going to make eating fun. I just took three ibuprofens, in hopes that that will reduce some of the pain and inflammation, but who knows. I just have no idea what is wrong with me anymore. I started out having a sore throat months ago, and it just turned into a cough, which lingered and got worse off and on, and now it's a really bad sore throat on only one side of my throat. Whatever it is, I'm screwed, cos I have absolutely no healthcare. I might be able to apply for MediCare or something, but I dunno.
I don't know what to do about living my life, either. Should I go to church, and should I go to work? When I'm in this much pain, it's hard to function, let alone go out and do things. But at the same time, it isn't like it hurts my throat to talk, and it's not like not going places is going to make me feel any better. I tried staying in bed as long as possible this morning, but it got to the point that I was not sleeping at all and my throat was going to hurt badly no matter whether I was in bed or out of bed.
My mom looked at my throat with a flashlight last night and didn't see anything bad looking, I guess. *sigh* I just want this crap to go away.
ETA: I found leftover Vicodin from when I had my wisdom teeth taken out. There were only two pills, and they're technically expired (although not THAT long ago)... the Health Department isn't open all weekend so I can't go over there to even see if I can get MediCare. I'm gonna need a lot of prayer to get through this weekend. :(
