it's day 3 and i am bored to, well, almost tears.

i no longer have a fever. but if i don't take those pink painkillers, the body aches creep in with a vengence and your limbs feel like they have lead dumb bells attached to them and every slight movement brings about a groan. and a moan. and some more groans.

the doc played safe and prescribed tamiflu.

(it's actually a nice name - tamiflu.

what's your name? 

tami.

last name?

flu. )

anyways,

you can tell that i am better now. just still groggy from too much painkillers yet not groggy enough to sleep all the time. 

interestingly enough, there was a report in the papers today about the side effects of tamiflu. am grateful i have none of the more bizarre ones like turning suicidal or sleepwalking but i do have nausea, esp after food. and that's sad.

i already have no appetite and to throw up whatever little i put in is sheer cruelty.  *sigh*

so i can't eat. what do i do?

i watch tv.

k-drama on the computer.

read.

get up, walk to kitchen, drink water, walk back and plonk down on sofa. repeat this more than ten times a day and that's how much exercise i get.

oh yes, plus trips to the loo. 

or doze off.

plus talk on the phone or sms

by tomorrow, i may add a new activity.

tear my hair out.

i still don't trust myself to drive so by tmr, it will be three full days of being homebound. arrgghhh!!!

still, should really look at the bright side. if this had happened three months ago, i might even have been quarantined at ALOHA!! double arrgghhh!!!
