The doctor told me it's the flu - a bad case of it. She then wrote a note and INSISTED I stay home from work for a WEEK.
I guess I've never had the flu before (only the stomach flu). I really thought it was just a bad cold, and I only went to the doctor because then I feared it had turned into either an ear infection or a sinus infection (or both). Imagine my shock when she said my ears were clear! They just hurt SO. BAD. And my throat is so red and raw, and at any given point in time, I can stick my finger in my mouth and swipe blood from the roof of my mouth or the back of my throat.
This is disgusting and so awful. I've never felt so sick in my life.
