I'm hurting...and on my 25th month wedding anniversary some more... ;(

ow... ow... OW!!! I'm in pain... so much pain... *sob*

Throat pain... Eye pain... Chest pain... heart pain...

First, the throat pain. Remember my last entry when I said I was having a bad sore throat after the camp? Yeah... it worsened and turned into flu over the weekend (yes, weekend was indeed ruined in the end... originally planned to go over for lunch at in-laws' place cos haven't been back for a VERY long time, plus meet up with HZ and Jess for a shopping trip in the afternoon and chill out over dinner... but had to cancel all the plans. SO SAD!!!). It was such a miserable weekend (although watching Deathnote 2 on Channel U on Sunday evening kinda took my mind off the flu for a while). Anyway, on Monday, I went on MC. Niao1 doc downstairs gave me only a day of MC, even after I asked him a bit sarcastically if he was sure I'd be ok the next day. Yesterday, had to force myself to return to work. And guess what? Ended up with hardly any voice left. Sore throat actually worsened and it's now really painful when I swallow...

Then today, eye pain. In the middle of the morning, I felt something was wrong with my right eye. It became watery and kept churning out discharge, making me feel so uncomfortable. Then, it started stinging, especially when I blink. Cancelled my band duty today to see doc near the workplace. Doc says it's viral infection, possibly linked to my flu. Told me for goodness' sake not to force myself back to work anymore this week. Gave me TWO days MC, starting tomorrow. Sigh. Not having to wake up and drag myself to work in this flu state is good, but missing so many classes (exams coming!!!) and even my promotion ceremony at Suntec tomorrow afternoon is NOT GOOD! Boo hoo... had actually been looking forward to attending the ceremony with Sophia too. ;(

Later in the afternoon, when got home, started coughing quite a bit. When cough, chest pain, cos cough a bit dry sometimes. Chest would hurt when cough very hard. Argh argh argh!!!

Finally, heart pain. Metaphorically lah, but still very pain. Cos since this flu thing started, I've not been able to be in much contact with Hubby... can't even give him my usual morning goodbye kiss before going to work... *sob* Haven't been able to even talk to him properly cos of this dumb sore throat, or spend quality time with him. Sometimes I grouchy, sometimes drowsy, sometimes lethargic, sometimes just irritable. But he's been quite patient so far lah... just wants me to recover asap.

Sigh... I miss Hubby, miss doing some of my fav activities, including ping-pong, and I miss my own voice! (k lah, a bit ego-sounding :p, but true lor) Flu flu, go away... don't want you back on any day... ... ...
