Fun times with FEVER!
Aug. 21st, 2008 01:33 pmOhhhh, my buddies! My PALS! Guess what I nearly did last night?
I nearly fainted and clocked my head on the hard, cold bathroom floor! That's right! I decided that, after being two days without washing because I was too sick to get much further than the toilet without needing to lie down again, that was it - I'd take some codeine and have a nice bath, then rinse myself off.
Medicines I'd had that evening:
- Some horrible shit old-fashioned Ammonia and Sene... Sene... somethingerather to clear up my chest.
- Panadol
- My daily dose of antidepressants
- Very very late, nurofen Plus (ibuprofin and codeine).
I had my bath - no problems. Quite lovely, really. It was when I decided to get out that the troubles started. Dizzy spells! Can't see for the patterns before my eyes! Can't... stand... SHIT!
I lay down on the cold tile floor, (oh that's nice), and shouted for help. Everyone was in the bedrooms. Thankfully, I collapsed in the laundry, in which there's a huge stinking hole in the wall where Dad's building a staircase and the sound goes right through. Scotty heard me, Scotty got Mum. I staggered with the help of Scotty to the couch in the lounge room, where I slept for the evening. Watched a movie, and tried to get some sleep.
Woke up today - still getting temperatures. God this shit is great fun.
