sick... (member notice)

[Luna]

Some already know, some don't, but for those who don't I've been rather sick the last few days such that I'm going to book myself into the doctors tomorrow. The strong pain killers I'm on say on the packet that they shouldn't be taken for more than three days and this is now day six. So as much as I hate and DESPISE going to the doctors I now recognise that I have to. It also means that I have been and will continue to be rather sporadic on the sight for which you have my appologies. Sometimes when I'm feeling alright I'll go on a roleplaying rampage and reply to everything then get annoyed when no one is online to reply so I can keep going but other times - unfortunately mostly in the evenings for americans - I feel like absolute shit and cant summon the creativity.
So.
Now you know.

On a side note, Pho, did we get rid of the member announcement board? Or am I just blind?

Awe, hope you feel better Jaq!!

the verdict is either tonsilitis or glandular fever, though my friends think it more likely glandular fever because of the dizziness. I've got antibiotics for tonsilitis and should know if they're working in 3 days or so and will have a blood test to see if i have glandular fever. i'll keep you updated.

*huggles* I really hope that you end up taking the NONsurgical route >.> No more getting sick! I miss you too much when you're gone

Without having to go to the doctors I can now say that it is not tonsilitis cause my throat doesnt hurt any more without having taken any antibiotics and the fact I am still tired makes it likely it is glandular fever. I had the blood test today so will find out for sure tomorrow probably. There is no 'cure' or drugs or anything for glandular my body just has to get over it in its own time and I just take pain killers so i dont have headaches and to keep the fever down.

BTW pho, they don't do surgery here unless its really sever and recurring so since I've never had tonsilitis before even if it was that bad they wouldn't have taken them out regardless of what I might want.

[Shiningami]

REALLY? Wow, as cool as that is, seems almost like a bad idea. For things like tonsilitis. Since that's a recurring thing and it could kill you >.>

Here at the first sign of tonsilitis they take them out. When I got this weird canker sore virus, I had cold sores all over my lips, on my tongue, gums cheek, on my tonsils and down my throat (lost 15 pounds) they wanted to take my tonsils out because they were so inflamed because of the virus. I wouldn't let them though XD I'm terrified of needles, how do you think I'd do in SURGERY? XD

[Luna]

lol you'd do just fine since they would knock you out before they did anything but i know how you feel, I don't want surgery even if I do want them to take out my annoying appendix at times >.<

Well, to keep people updated the test for glandular fever came back negative so it wasn't that. Which means they don't know what it is. Either that or it had been in my system long enough and was on the way out so it didn't show up, aparently that's possible. Regardless if it's not better by monday I have to go back to the doctors but I think I'm on the mend. I'm starting to get hearing back in my recently deaf ear (really weird since its like hearing an echo or double lol) and I managed to get through a six hour training session with calisthenics today with minimal dizzy spells, though tomorrow will be the teller to know whether I crash or not.

However, I may still be a little absent. The other day there was a somewhat violent incident at home which led to me making an emergency move to my friends house earlier than I expected. They have internet and I have my computer here but it may be a little hectic over the next week or so until I settle down here. Nonetheless I will try and post in Reitaku and Thief tomorrow or the next day to make sure they don't die
