Very suddenly...

navygreenI feel like death. I was fine yesterday and the rest of the week, but then my asthma started acting up last night. I've not used my inhaler in many, many months, so my asthma recurring was a surprise. My breathing got worse as the night darkened, and when I woke this morning, the center of my chest ached deeply (I assume I was breathing poorly throughout the night, though I never did wake coughing or anything).
And today I have gotten progressively worse. Philip instructed me to lie down for a nap a few hours ago, but I woke up feeling achey, hot, and raspy. I dreamt that he brought me chicken noodle soup, biscuits, and a new inhaler (mine is long expired). He is out at the moment, in fact, picking up chicken noodle soup and biscuits from IHOP (the only place open with biscuits at this hour, and, to my luck, Chicken Noodle is their 'Soup of the Day').
I just took my temp, and it is 100.6°, but I feel like I'm freezing. And though I don't really drink anything but water anymore, I've now got a pot of sweet tea steeping on the stove. It's the only thing that I know will ease my raw throat and help my lungs feel a bit of relief, and the cure of sweet tea may be minimal, but it is surefire. We'll see how long I can stomach it, though, as I just don't drink sweet stuff anymore...
