Ooooooowwwwwww
I went to the doctor this morning. He ruled out strep and mono, and just labeled it as a virus. They took a culture for more info.
In the meantime, I have terrible, horrific throat pain, and I’ve been having chills and a fever since Sunday night. I had two episodes of almost passing out yesterday. One time was while I was making Ada a glass of milk. I told her to go get daddy while I crawled to the sofa. She ran to the bedroom and then came back and said “daddy is sleeping.” I guess I should have told her to wake him up, but it didn’t matter. The dizziness passed only to happen again that afternoon while I was taking a shower.
Just having my throat swabbed and having them look down it doubled my pain. Mac is picking up Ada from Raintree and then picking up my prescription Ibuprofen to try to get the swelling down in my throat. In the meantime, I get to lie in bed almost wanting to cry everytime I need to swallow and going between feeling freezing cold and hot and sweaty.
Oh, and a small section of the ceiling in the shower decided that it wanted to fall down. Seriously. My house is falling apart. We get to add that to the list of repairs that have plagued us the last few weeks.
Last week just wasn’t my week, and this week isn’t looking good either.
I’ll take being puked on any day of the week over that. Hope you’re feeling better soon.
I am so, so sorry to hear you’re feeling so rotten. I wish there was something I could do to help. Something I could do from, you know, way over here.
