Mysterious Illness

Will you come home and stop this pain tonight?

-Stop this pain tonight-

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with this blog. This semester is moving faster than anyone would of expected. I just have so much to do and so little time to get everything done. Even if I were an overaciever (yeah I can't spell, get over it) I don't think I would have free time left. Online homework is killing me.

But what's killing me worse is this strange sudden illness that has suddenly taken over my life. Friday morning I woke up early to do Botany homework, and received strange cramps and aches in my stomach. I slept till three p.m., woke up feeling okay and went to work. At work the cramps returned for a short while, and went away.

I decided to go to bed early that night, (9:30!) only to be stuck with the worst upper stomach pains ever. I rolled around in a ball for hours with the pain. I went into the bathroom and forced myself to throw up to try to stop the pain with no success. I slept in the red room downstairs like a drunk hobo hoping a change of scenery might change my condition. Still nothing. I drove to the ER, walked in, asked about the cost and decided to wait until morning to do anything about it. (Mind you I was schedualed to work nine hours the next day at walmart) So I called in sick to walmart, crawled around the hallway until a friend found me and told me to rest in her bed until the clinic opened at nine.

The clinic did nothing but nod, and give me presciption medicine. Saying it should go away in a few days.

I woke up later saturday evening with HUGE red and white hives covering all of my legs. Saturday-Sunday was a blur. Monday I realized I missed accounting deadlines, had a huge Botany Exam to take, and classes to go to. I was covered in hives again, but they slowly dissappeared as I woke up. I drove to the clinic, where a different doctor nodded and gave me another perscription. I said, screw it. I took and failed a botany exam, an accoutning quiz and exam, and failed that week's homework assignment.

This morning the hives were all over my arms and legs. I have no stregnth in my arms, and it hurts to move my neck. But the stomach pains are gone! So I am trying to be as productive as possible while I can.

Wow, what a boring blog to read.

Oh well.

PERSONAL NOTE:

I fear my roommate hates me. I sleep in her bed more than mine because mine is such a mess and her's is so much more comfortable. Plus, since my sickness the room is a disaster. She snuck in last night to take the last of her stuff and I don't think she plans to come back. I feel incredibly lonely and wish more than anything to drive home and sleep on the old brown couch where my mom can force me to take vitamon C tablets.

I'm also petrified that if I don't get better soon I will flunk out of college.

Dear God, please help me.
