1 week 5 days later...

I'm still sick with this weird sore throat/cough. It's strange because I only cough in the morning when I wake up, or right as I fall asleep. And by cough I mean hacking to the point where I might cough blood, or start vomiting.  So long as I stay on my Benylin 24/7 I've managed to keep it at bay for the rest of the day. My voice comes and goes depending on how much I talk, but it usually comes back. I thought that I'd be better by now but maybe this bug is worse than I imagined. Everyone at school is getting sick. My mom is sick. I think I got my boyfriend sick. Oooops. This morning, I woke up and my throat was pretty swollen. I've had problems swallowing since Sunday, but this shit just went to the next level. I should probably see a doctor. I probably need antibiotics. 

Thankfully I have the day off (no work, no school!) to recuperate and get my shit together. I think I just might stay at home all day. If I do go out, I really hope to get a manicure. I've been biting my nails again since trying to quit smoking (I'm a sometimes quitter). I read that smoking and drinking alcohol can cause sore throats which might be what did it for me. That and probably coming into contact with someone who had a virus. Shiiiiiit. I'm starting to read all the medical stuff I googled and am getting very paranoid. Hhahha. I really hope this is just a cold. 

I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
