Brace yourself... for exactly two weeks I had the flu. Started out with body aches and headaches. It quickly went to an ear infection, sinus issues, and the worst night sweats I've ever had. For 3 days in a row I would wake up in a puddle of sweat, I'd still be dripping sweat, shivering cold, yet it was 91.4 degrees in my room (heat on max). I think I beat that whole flu thing though, took 14 days. The day I started feeling better I came down with a new sickness. My throat was sore, my sinuses were fine, still have my ear infection leftover from the flu (I think it's the same one). A few days pass and my throat gets real bad, kills me to swallow. I shine a light down there to take a look and it's so swollen I only have an opening about the size of a pencil eraser. Not only that but there's a bunch of white spots back there. 11 days into this and I'm starting to feel better, somewhat. I'm on amoxicillin and ibuprofen, it makes me feel better when I take the pills, but as soon as they wear off the throat soreness comes back and my ear aches again. Good times!
