Very very sick, went to the hospital/clinic down here finally tonight with Daniel (another poker player down here) who translated as he's a native speaker...have been super ill since monday night
Basically have had the flu/flu-like symptoms for the past 6 days and have ignored them; I'm running a ridiculously high fever and it's causing all my side effects like insanely sore throat (like strep throat bad, to where i can barely swallow food or liquid), a really bad cough, runny nose, etc. Worst of all is one of the flu's biggest side effects; causing dehydration. I'm sitting here chugging water all day long, and I'm never quenched, always thirsty and because of the sore throat, it's hurting all day long drinking said water
I'm on a bunch of antibiotics now, supposed to be 2-3 days and then they'll kick in.
My main problem now is that I can't lay down...as soon as I do that, I start coughing so bad that I choke and end up dry heaving (no food in my system), and it's impossible for me to fall asleep while sitting with my head propped up on a ton of pillows, too uncomfortable. So it puts me in a ****ty position as I'm really in no physical shape to grind (nor should i be grinding this sick), but yet i cant really just sleep it off either as I should be.
So yea, that's how my week has gone
