So, I went to the doctor this afternoon to find out what’s been ailing me. As always happens, by the time I saw him, the worst of the symptoms had subsided. I was no longer feverish, no longer shaking and my body was barely aching anymore. However, the sore throat still existed (though even that […]
I’m so pathetic. I woke up yesterday morning with a slight sore throat. But by mid-morning, my body ached so bad that I could barely move. I ended up leaving work and going home around 1PM. As the afternoon went on, the aching feeling was so strong that even sitting was painful. I mean, when […]
