I've got this rash covering my entire body. It's not terribly itchy, not too horribly red, but it's enough to be a bit uncomfortable. The doctor said it was like..a result of the fever, or something.
I also have laryngitis. Fun, right? So I'm this red, not-talking girl.
And I've lost about ten pounds..
I'm serious.
I'm freaking serious.
Yeah, I'm okay...I just need to eat, a LOT.
I had all these weird dreams when I was sick, people coming into my room, leaving. It was my mother, checking on me. She said I mumbled to her when she came in. I won't even tell you what I thought it all was. It might have been less scary if I'd known she'd be coming in during the night, but I was feverish and deathly ill, and it's not hard to make someone feverish and deathly ill into a scared little burnt cookie.
The fever started small, at 100.2 on Saturday morning, barely budged all day long, then it kept spiking higher and higher, while we'd try to get it down. The highest it got, that I actually know of, is when it reached 105.4 on Wednesday morning.
I was talking about how didn't want to die from Tuesday to Thursday.
I might've scared Connie.
Anyway, Wednesday I took my temperature, saw what it was, and would have started crying if I hadn't been so dehydrated. I showed my mother, then ran back to my room to drink water and take some medicine. I drank as much as I could, and got my temperature to 101 or 102. When I went downstairs, into the usually brightly lit rooms, it was like I had a black veil over my eyes.
Everything still looks a little funny.
So we went to the doctor..and they were so, so sure it was pneumonia. But my lungs were fine, and when I got a chest xray, it showed they were clear there too. The pharmacist wouldn't give us the prescription because I didn't have pneumonia. I got a nebulizer though. yay. The medicine that we got with the nebulizer makes me a little shaky though.
So Wednesday was only two days ago, right? That afternoon my fever started going down...and Thursday it went down some more. There was just the breathing thing..throat blockage..whatever. It was nothing serious, I guess. I haven't choked since last night.
I told you I hate getting sick. x(
