So, I have been, what feels like, knocking on death's door. Or at least have been strep throat's newest play thing. This is the worst I have felt since Winter of 2010 when I had strep the last time. I wish that the doctors had taken out my tonsils when I was younger!
I haven't been able to eat much of anything. I have been pushing liquids and have been sleeping a ton. I'm trying to trick my body into feeling better by getting out of bed and sitting up downstairs today instead of staying in bed. I am feeling better over all and have energy to do somethings. Open windows to get the bad air out, spray a whole can of Lysol all over the apartment, change my sheets, and wash all my contaminated dishware. But my throat is still tore up and on fire, so eating is difficult. I have had about a half pack of instant oatmeal, half of a mashed up banana, and a cup of mashed potatoes over the past few days. I know my body needs nutrients to get better, but it's hard getting them past my throat.
Good news, I have lost 6 pounds... But I would rather be healthy and not have lost them. :(
