Chris' Adventures in being really fucking sick!
Well, yesterday and today have been a lot of fun, if i've ever had fun before!
got up feeling a little crappy again - revenge of the cold. well, that wasnt so bad, i could tough it out, and i had to go to work to start training my replacement. so i did.
by midday i was feverish and feeling pretty crappy, so i got the lovely girlfriend to get me from work at 2:30.
we hit traffic on the way home, and i got to experience my first ever event of hurling in an (almost) moving car!
it was 5 by the time we got home (stopped off at her parents to let me rest for a while and to clean my lunch from the car door...yum). i was still feeling shocking. then about 9:30, i threw up again! really heavy wretches that hurt like a bitch.
really worried, herself took me to the after hours clinic at mount druitt hospital (which is also part of the emergency ward), where they took my temperature (39) and blood pressure (really really low) and immediately admitted me with severe dehydration!
was at the hospital to 4:30am today, and then we got to come home. i've got a virus, it just took me by surprise and the dehydration and low blood pressure really screwed me up. so i've been drinking water and sleeping most of today. Doctors orders are to rinse and repeat for a few days.
fun!
