Sick-i-ness continues

So I went to the E-room today because I woke up feeling just as crappy as I did on Saturday.  My throat was killing me, my ears ached.  Enough was enough, I went to see a doctor because after 3 days you’re looking at something more than just a sore throat and a cold, particularly if you have no other symptoms of a cold.  My tonsils are really swollen however my strep test came back negative.  Doc said that it’s quite common for quick-tests for strep to come back with a false negative.  So she diagnosed me with tonsilitus and gave me a prescription for amaxocillin so that way even if I have strep it’ll be taken care of too.  She also warned me that it’s too early to test for mono but that if I don’t start feeling better by this weekend I should make an appointment with my PCP and get checked out again.  So I filled my prescription, picked up a bunch of soup, applesauce, pudding, popsicles, lozenges, ho-cho and such.  The check-out girl said "Boy you really like chocolate huh?" I shot back (as best I could considering I barely have a voice) "I figure if I’m going to be sick I’m going to enjoy myself". 

So now I’m sitting watching CSI, having some soup and apple juice while I wait for my pudding and such to chill to a good temp.  I have my alarm set to go off in about 8 hours to take my next pill.

B came over last night, against my advice.  I told him not to come over seeing how sick I was but he insisted he wanted to come over and keep me company.  He got here about 6:30pm and ordered some pizza.  I managed to down a slice and some cheesie-bread, not because I was hungry but because it was more than 24 hrs since the last time I ate and the cheesie-bread smelled SOOOO good.  I’m a cheesie-bread fiend.  There’s still some left and I want it so that means I have to get better fast!  RAWR!  But already told B that if he gets sick next he’s not allowed to whine and I’m not coming to see him because I don’t want it back. 😛  He laughed at me.  But we managed to share the bed okay which is saying something as I usually don’t share the bed well with anyone and we both got some sleep, also a bit of  a feat for both of us.  Maybe it’s because I was so tired from being sick, who knows.

Gah!  I have an O-chem quiz tomorrow and right now I don’t care.  :
