Default Yay!

Got a 38.6°C *101°F* fever and also have tonsillitis - 10 days of antibiotics for me.

Got to drive home tomorrow... this should be fun.

Urrgh.

Hugely fun...

Not had both a fever and tonsillitis before - it's a combination that I don't want again.

*goes to curl up in bed again...*

I've known a lot of people this year have tonsilitis. Hope you feel better soon!

You poor bugger. You're not doing well with colds/diseases/general ill health this year are you? Get well soon.

It's not been a good year.

Partially it's due to the fact that I've pretty much been in the flat all year, due to surgery and unemployment, so when I do go out - I get everything.

Still, feeling significantly better today, very happy with the suggestion from one of my ex-workmates who used to be a nurse that boiled sweets are good for tonsillitis - currently sat in the flat surrounded with various sweeties.

Oh, and a fever and tonsillitis is a great way to loose weight it seems...

Good suggestion there. I swear by that one for sore throats. Just keeps fluids moving which helps keep the throat clear (or at least acts as a distraction).

Urgh I know where you're coming from. I had to drive home once when I got real flu. I thought I was going to die at the wheel at one point and I could barely press the brake or turn the wheel. You have my total sympathy fella.
