How am I sick again/still? I thought I was getting better, but as of yesterday I have a fever again and the cough has gotten worse. My voice is so gravelly that I had trouble making myself understood while calling to schedule a doctor’s appointment. I’ve been nauseous from coughing up and then swallowing so much phlegm. (TMI, yeah, I know.)

I apologize to anyone who’s waiting on answers or fic updates/requests from me. I finally have some free time and then my body decides it hates me, which means that my brain isn’t functioning all that well, either. I’ve scheduled a doctor’s appointment for tomorrow so maybe I’ll find out what’s going on. Really hoping whatever it is is bacterial so I can take antibiotics and it will go away.

Update: it does appear to be bacterial bronchitis (opportunistic secondary infection post-flu); I have been prescribed a course of antibiotics and started taking it ASAP, so I hope I’ll be functional again tomorrow.

Uuuugggghhh, I want to write but my brain is still cooked. Go antibiotics go! Work your magic!

Well, the antibiotics have helped with the coughing and the fever, but they’re also making me tired and nauseous. All food tastes terrible except saltine crackers.
