sorry about the unusual silence. last friday, i noticed some soreness in my tonsils and it's ballooned into a medical anomaly. between the fever, chills, sore throat, little voice, chest pains, head aches and tonsils coated in something that resembles mold, (TMI, i know.) i haven't had much interest in sitting at the computer. i've been off work all week, and i'm downright desperate to go back. very lonely - my mom and stepdad have been doing their best to drop in and visit or take me to their house every now and then so that i can see some new scenery, and my poor husband can have a break.
my poor husband. in sickness and in health, i suppose. he's been to the grocery store at least 7 times in the last 4 days, washed who knows how many loads of dishes, cooked, cleaned and waited on me hand and foot. and he's been a pretty good sport about it too... mostly. ;)
on the up-side, i've lost 9 lbs in 5 days. if i can keep this up for like 2 more days, i'll weigh what i weighed on my wedding day! too bad it'll all come back when i'm able to eat something other than chicken broth and popsicles.
so the doctors can't find any trace of strep, mono or diphtheria (yeah, they tested for that too) so they're affectionately referring to me as "tonsilitis + ?". i have a 1:45pm appointment with the entroscopy clinic... apparently they intend to send something down my throat to look around. eeew. *gag* eeew.
