this past week has been one of the worst sicknesses I have yet to experience...
It started when I went to the oral surgeon to get my wisdom teeth out on friday the 2nd. everything was fine, i was feeling fine until sunday when I got sick and I thought it was because of the painkillers I had from my wisdom teeth. I stopped taking the meds and I was still sick on Monday. I wasn't sure what was causing me to get sick, but I did know that these are the last few weeks of classes before finals and I couldn't afford to be sick.
I called my teacher Monday because I had a test that night for BIO and explained that I must have had a 24 hour flu and I would need extra time.
I wake up Tuesday still not feeling well or able to eat but I thought I was getting better until that night..
I have never been more miserable then I was that Tuesday night, I was losing everything in my stomach when all it came down to was stomach acid (pretty huh?)
I called my mom every hour not sure what I should do. I went in as soon as urgent care opened on Wednesday and they immediately hooked me up to an IV and started my drip because I was completely dehydrated.
I went through 2 and 1/2 liters on Wednesday and Dane was wonderful and came down to sit with me in the small room and take care of me. I was probably there for 4 hours or so. They left the needles in my arm and told me to come back in the morning. That night, I got sick again. I was so frustrated because I thought I was getting better and I was so thirsty and I couldn't keep anything down.
Dane had to go back to school on Thursday so I went into the Urgent Care again and they started another IV but this time for calorie intake because I basically had nothing keeping me going to help me get better. This day was bad, I was stuck in this little room alone for almost 7 hours. I was going insane. All I wanted to do was feel better and be able to drink and eat without being scared.
I finally got to eat some things without feeling sick recently and they said my diet should be back within a week and hopefully get my energy back as well.
This week was awful but I am lucky to have Dane and his family up here to take care of me. They were a lot of help this week for me.
Now I am just stressing out because of Finals coming up, the classes I missed and the assignments I have to turn in late.(and I probably shouldnt be blogging with everything I have to do..whoops_)
Only a week left! I can do it.. I hope.
