Still SO Sick

It's now been 8 days. This is just getting stupid. I'm really excited for whenever it is that I feel something close to normal.

Right now:
My head aches, my muscles ache and I can't stop coughing. I mean really coughing. The last 4 nights, I've had only a few hours of sleep, because I am up coughing until I vomit. I've minorly strained an intercostal muscle, which means that coughing fucking hurts. I have no energy, which isn't shocking when you consider I've hardly eaten in 8 days. Between that and the excessive sweating, I'm pretty sure I've lost at least 5 pounds.

At least I finally seem to be able to control my temperature. Also the doctor gave me some very potent cough syrup that has been letting me get a little more sleep. It's red, and I'm pretty sure it's coloured with ground-up fifties, but none the less I have to resist taking all of it.

Sorry to hear that you are still sick Hez. Hope you feel better soon! There sure are some nasty bugs going around these days. Makes me glad I don't leave the house very often :)
