the ultimate sick day:
i woke up, well not really since my throat prevented me from sleeping all night. i call my boss to let him know i'll be late because i'm going to the doctor. it takes him a few minutes to get past my speech impediment since i was almost completely not understandable. the doctor opens at 9, but they couldn't see me until 1230 when the walk-in hours started. so i go back home and fall asleep on the couch. now since i couldn't swallow without extreme pain, i had an excess of saliva built up in my mouth. i woke up in a panic because i was choking on my own spit and i couldn't catch my breath. now i'm in panic mode, i call my mother and ask her to call an ambulance. they come and say that my heart rate was 136/60 or something like that and they put an oxygen mask on me. then my face starts getting tingly and numb, followed by my left arm, i'm freaking out at this point. they get me to the hospital and i get admitted. the hook up the iv and pump antibiotics and painkillers into me. they determine that the cause of my sore throat was tonsilitis that turned into an abscess around my tonsil. they give me prescriptions for more antibiotics and pecosets (hell yeah), then send me to a throat specialist who shoots me up with novacaine and draind the cyst with another syringe. 3 cc's of puss extraction later and i'm already feeling loads better.
