Beginning three weeks ago, I had a two week period where I was feeling almost human again. At first, I still took it easy. I was careful to not over do and get plenty of rest. However, I continued to feel better, so I stepped it up a notched. Then life became demanding and I went even further. Weekend befor last, I developed a sore throat and an ear ache. Even with this, I continued on. All last week, I began to run low grade fevers again and feeling quite nasty at times. The fatigue would hit ramdomly. I would find myself pulling my way up the stairs at work and feeling like I wasn't going to make it. The internal tremors came back in full force.
During that week, life went haywire. Work became incredibly demanding. I was even bringing home work, causing me to work 10-16 hour days and on the weekends. The homelife became stressed. I was basically told that I should stay in my room (I live with "family" at the moment), help clean the house more, but I could come out and eat dinner with them on occasion. My finances are stressed right now. For some reason this week, the people that I live with have been staying up late (until 3 or 4 in the morning. They watch movies with the surround sound on and laugh/talk very loudly. I have issues getting to sleep and staying that way. I would get to sleep really late and then up at 4:30 am to go to work. So, I pushed myself to get everything done. BIG MISTAKE!
Friday, at work, I began feeling poorly. As the day went on, it became worse. By the time that evening rolled around, I was done for. My whole body ached. My eye lashes even hurt. I could barely walk and was quite incoherant. I went to bed early but then woke with night sweats, sick on my stomach and raging fevers all night. Saturday, I slept all day. I was suppose to go out Saturday night. I was so excited. I hadn't been out anywhere in such a long time. I had to cancel.
Today, Sunday, I'm still very tired, running fevers and just feel all around funky. I'm almost at my wits end...maybe I'll be more positive tomorrow.
