I have tonsillitis. It is not good. Jane has it, Myrtle has it, Claire has it, Lewis has it, Ethan had it – I feel like putting a black X up on our front door. I’ve had it since Thursday, and it is progressively getting worse. I will be going to the doctors tomorrow, for sure. I worked a 12 hour shift on Thursday and didn’t feel too bad, a 5 hour shift on Friday (getting worse), then another 12 hour shift on Saturday (this was an absolute killer, Saturday is our busiest day, and I was by myself for most of it), then another 5 hours on Sunday. Thing is, it wasn’t my throat or neck that hurt, despite my tonsils being approximately 300% of their usual size and covered in pussy nodules, it was my back that really ached.
Now my throat is hurting a little, and my insides feel like they’ve been cut out, popped in a blender, then put back in. And I have a dull headache that just won’t shift. I can’t stand up straight as my back hurts, and when I do get up and walk around I feel really dizzy. It’s not as bad as Norovirus, but worse than the nerfed version of swine flu I had (in a slow, painful death kinda way). I don’t think I can go to work tomorrow. Lots of time and attention for my Bamboo and Artrage then!
