On Tuesday night, right after dinner I suddenly started feeling really bad. My stomach hurt and I was having really bad body aches. I slept horribly that night and when I woke up yesterday I felt worse than I had before. I was running a fever, my head hurt, my nose was congested, my whole body ached, and I was just plain miserable.
I called out of work yesterday and just laid around all day. I think I moved from the couch to the bed and then from the bed to the couch about five different times. Finally at around 5:30 I suddenly got an appetite. Looking in our cabinets I decided my choices of nothing and nothing wasn’t really what I was looking for.
I got in the shower, got ready, and headed to subway. I think I was gone a total of about 20 minutes. When I got back I was drained… Big time. I wasn’t even hungry anymore but I knew I needed to eat. After I forced my dinner down I just laid on the couch some more.
Finally after feeling like crap and resting for the entire day, I slowly started to feel better. I took some nose spray before I went to bed last night and I slept wonderfully. Today I’m feeling moderately well. Perhaps I’ll have to eat some more subway later. I think it’s what made me feel better.
