Title: Sick....
Post by: raga on February 01, 2010, 01:58:53 AM

I disappeared last week because I got sick and felt too crappy to show my face, then I spent this weekend catching up on my lost work.  I'm back now and less then an hour ago I finally figured out what I had/have.  Last Monday I started feeling back, but Tuesday was the worse.  It was kinda like a really bad cold, but with a sore throat on the side.  Last Friday the cold symptoms started to disappear and by Saturday all that was left was the sore throat.  About an hour ago I finally got a good look in the back of my mouth (the lighting was just right) and saw a swollen tonsil covered in white spots.  After a quick trip to web MD I have figured out that I have the viral form of Tonsillitis.  Its no biggy and should go away in another couple days, theres no point in going to a doctor because theres nothing they can do anyway.

So, long story short, I'm back.

Glad you feel at least a bit better. :)

And I just searched that illness and yikes...well, just do whatever you can to heal yourself. Maybe you can use Ibprofen for it?

Ya it is yikes, I don't like to think about what those white spots on my tonsil are, its just nasty.  I was taking nyquil at night when I was really sick, now I just suck on a Halls ever couple hours to numb the soreness.  Its not all that bad, I feel fine in every way but my throat.
