Because I got the horrible, the dreaded,
H1N1
I'm totally serious. I just got it 3 days ago. I am past the "I feel like I'm going to die or hack up a lung" stage and now I'm just in the "I'm tired and congested" stage. Either way this flu sucks.
And on top of that they quarantine you in your home for 6 days. So I can't go back to work till Thursday which is bad because I actually don't remember much from Wednesday-Thursday and I'm a little afraid I may have forgotten to do things at work. Which is never good and apparently normal when you get the flu. It starts off as a bad head cold with a cough and headache, rapidly turning into a super illness in only a day or two. I guess you forget about stuff when your head hurts and you have a 102 fever huh?
If you start coughing (Its a deep, painful cough), get stomach cramps, and get congested out of no where go to your doctor immediately. They can give you tamiflu if the illness is caught within 72 hours. And it is mighty helpful.
Basically, I can't think enough or look at a computer long enough to blog about anything meaningful. Hopefully, I will feel better and can use my days off to do some drawing. I've already watched the entire fourth season of How I Met Your Mother but I still have season two of Greek and season one of Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia to keep me company. I can't read yet, gives me a headache :(
Stay well! And pray that I didn't screw up anything at the office :)

ReplyDeleteAwww, hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteGet well soon Sister!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear that sis... swine flu scares the crap out of me :S I hope you recover quickly!
ReplyDeleteDon't worry too much about work, I'm sure no-one will blame you if you made mistakes while ill. These things happen. :)
Oh no! I hope your recovery is quick! And don't worry about work. Everybody knows you were sick, and like I tell my fill in, there's nothing you can break that can't be fixed later. :)
ReplyDeleteAw you are all so sweet and make me feel so much better! It is an evil little flu but I shall beat it!
ReplyDeleteI do now know why you do not have to pray while seriously ill. You don't even have a concept of time or the energy to wash the dishes. I couldnt even remember the prayers that I have said since I was 12 yesterday lol. I did find a lovely prayer for while you are sick though, I will post it later.
Oh no, I hope you feel better soon! I was diagnosed with h1n1, without taking the test though, because I'd been sick for a week already and she said it was not accurate that late, and thankfully, she got my lungs xrayed and it was pneumonia and not at all h1n1! 7 days of antibiotics later, I feel much better but still coughing a lot. I'd never been so sick in my life I think! Gah! I was sure I had h1n1 too!
ReplyDeleteHope you are completely better very soon! InshaAllah, you will be.
Aw Candice you feel better too! I've had pneumonia a few times its awful.
