Documenting not dying since October 2013.

The 6th of October.  Last night was bad again. Don't think I fell asleep at all until past two, and even then it was punctuated by coughs. Blog posts take so much longer when I'm coughing. Keep having to stop and hunch over to move some phlegm. Spent most of the day without my cardigan on because I've been so warm. 

My chest has rumbled all afternoon. Rumble, cough, rumble, cough. I can barely write because I have to keep stopping. This morning I was quieter and I thought things might be starting to slightly improve but that seems incorrect. 

Daddy is concerned that I've got something fungal, so if there's time on Wednesday he'd like me to get my bloods done (I don't know how this is supposed to fit in with my lymphoscintigram). Personally I think it's still just a virus but getting them checked will make him feel better. 

What would make me feel better would be for the coughing to improve. Or at least decrease in frequency. I'm so exhausted. 

The 7th of October. 

Sleep not terrible but not good. I'm so tired. And my back hurts so much. When I get up to walk, I am bent over at a thirty degree angle. Straightening up is too painful. 

Most of my day has been spent leaning forward, working on something I'm crocheting for Heidi. It is going to be rather larger than I had originally anticipated. I hope she doesn't mind. 

I'm not sure there's anything else to say. I feel like trash. It's been two weeks now. Can I start getting better soon please? It's been so long since I had a normal virus, I've forgotten how long they last. Some improvement next week would be nice. I really hope it can't get worse.
