Crap.
Still so sick. Coughing almost constantly. Ugh. I took Monday off work, then already had Tuesday and Wednesday off, since those are my normal days off, but I also had to take today off cos I still wasn't better. I went to the doctor today to see if I could get some stronger medicine... and she said I have bronchitis, and that she'd give me an antibiotic for that, but she doesn't have any hydrocodone and she can't give me codeine because I'm allergic to it. *sigh* She also gave me some Chinese herbal cough syrup, which I tried some of already, and while it actually tasted okay, I don't think it's touching the cough.
I still have a little bit of hydrocodone left that I brought with me from the States, but maybe only one dose, and even when I take that, it gets rid of the cough, but it has a side effect of making me feel itchy. Not like I'm allergic to it, but like it's messing with my brain because it has opium in it.
I just hate this. I hate that I can't work and I'm coughing all the time. This on top of having to move, and Christmas and everything. My boss wants me to work tomorrow, and believe me, I want to work, but the doctor already wrote me a note to stay home today and tomorrow, and I'm doubting I'll be well enough to work tomorrow at this rate... and I'm not even sure I can work on Saturday. We'll see. It's just the cough. If I didn't have this cough, I would work. But I can't stand up in front of a class and start teaching only to stop for a coughing fit.
Cinnamon and I went and looked at a few flats last night, with not a lot of success in finding something we liked. She's going to go look at some on her own tonight since I think it's a better idea for me to stay home in bed at this point; going out last night seemed to take a lot of energy, and I felt worse afterwards. We do need to move ASAP though. *sigh*
