I actually slept last night, for the first time in ages. Then I was awoken with this bad sore throat. I looked at it and I had all these bloody sores everywhere. Great. I am already nursing an upper respiratory infection, now this! I should have gone to the doctor this morning but I never got around to it. Then around 4pm, I started having trouble breathing and got a bad pain in my chest. NOT GOOD! So I got up to the ER. My upper respiratory infection went systemic because the antibiotics were ineffective. Now it's in my mouth, sinuses, ears, throat, and it's in my blood. After several lab tests, IV's, X-rays, they did a specific culture to find the proper antibiotic, dosed me through the IV, gave me a breathing treatment, and kicked me out. My fever hit 104. Great. So I just walked back in the door. Under normal circumstances, I would be using like crazy. But, still clean.

Welcome to day 11 and 22 minutes.
