Literally Pain In The Neck
Aiyoyo~~ first is the terrible fever, now comes the attack of the killer sore throat!!
woke up yesterday morning feeling better, although i was still quite groggy and dizzy. i started wandering around my house like a ghost coz i really could not stand lying in the bed anymore. came online, blogged a while and after that a sudden pain striked my throat. it was piercing pain, burning pain, killing pain. so i started gulping down water, only to find that it hurt even more when i swallow the gulps of water. *scream* i tried sipping, but the movement of the muscles in my throat whenever i swallow seemed to be causing the pain.
asked my mum to look into the back of my throat, and she screamed. she was yelling there were white stuff on the surface of my throat. great, that sent me into panic. immediately she chased me out of the house to see the doctor again, this time to the family doctor i've been seeing since young.
the pain started getting worse, i can't even swallow my own saliva without flinching or twitching my whole face into an anguish expression. terrible. on the bus, some ppl stared at me as i had to frequently swallow saliva to ease the dryness of my throat. urgh. quit staring can? yesh yesh, you all are staring at a SICK person.
a sudden lame tot came across me when i saw one of the AdShel advertisements. "You can wait for the rain to stop, but patients can't." hmm, why are patients called patients when they cant be patient waiting for their cure? ok... *slap myself*
anyway, the doctor stared into my throat to look at how bad is the situation. he's always so calm no matter how bad the situation was, so i wasnt expecting much of a surprise from him. "ok, your throat looks quite red," he said in a very calm manner, "then there's one ulcer at that side, there's t... OH~ your throat is really BAD!" wa, for the first time, he gave an exclaimed comment which kind of shocked me. apparently my whole throat is almost filled with ulcer patches. urgh~ no wonder... he gave me painkillers and two types of antibiotics plus something to stop the swelling... *pain*
tried to go back to camp today for COG support, tinking i'd be there to look after instruments. but got groggy once i got back to bunk (most prob due to the long walk into the camp). fell asleep but woke up at the pain in the throat once again. damn~ i forgot to bring my medicine and my throat was just burning. had to force myself to keep drinking water even tho it hurt. ||: *breathe in* *drink* *swallow* *pain* *wait a while* *breathe in* *drink* *swallow* *pain* *wait a while* :|| (repeat infinitely) woei kee suggested i go home den since i got an mc for today. and that's wut i did. roy wanted to fetch me to the gate, but i declined, dun really wanna bother him. but thanks a lot man!
came home, took the medicine, and (as usual) got groggy and dozed off. (felt like saying *yet again*...)
gosh~ wuts gonna happen to me after i get better...? flu? argh!! *pull hair*
irritated,
