Sick and Tired...vent really
Last week I came down with what I thought was a cold...runny nose, sore throat, cough and then by thursday I had severe body aches and fever. Friday I stayed home from work running a high fever and slept the day away.
Well Saturday I woke up felt better but started loosing my voice it just continued to get worse and my throat continued to feel bad.
Monday I came to work could barely talk but made it through the day. Yesterday I went home around 3:00 bc I literally could not talk. This morning I wake up could talk more but I have been talking alot today so now I am back to the way I felt Tuesday. Im tired of this! My mouth is raw from all the cough drops I have sucked on.
I am tired of answering the phone and people asking how are you and I want to scream how do you think i am i cant talk!
I am tired of people assuming just because i am having trouble talking today that i must have trouble hearing bc the speak louder and louder.
This sucks!
Re: Sick and Tired...vent really
I'm so sorry you haven't been feeling good. You've been to the doctor before, right? It just sounds like you get sick a lot and I wonder if maybe you've got something you just can't shake that keeps coming back. My senior year of college I kept getting colds and in the end the doctor gave me antibiotics and I didn't get them again. I know antibiotics don't clear up colds but clearly it wasn't really a cold!!
Try and get rest in the evenings when you can.
its ok Caroline not alot of people know on here or irl friend know about all the sickness i had that year. not that i am ashamed just dont really like talking about it. i was sick for so long. and it was just a bad period of time for me.
but i think this might have just been sinus that lead to a sinus infection so really there was nothing i could have done.
