It's not helping

[kyrasantae]

Though the drugs are helping me make it through the day, my sinuses are still producing so much gunk (looks like it's going to be one whole box of tissues this week) that I still spend the first hour or two awake every morning coughing it out of my lungs. And blowing my nose throughout the day. And I'm on double the standard dose of this stuff already. It doesn't feel like it's helping me heal sooner.

I could speak almost normally again since Wednesday, but any exercise kills me. I walked with some people to the sports centre yesterday (they were going to work out, I just wanted to find out where it is) and back, it's a whole maybe 20-minute round trip, not really a difficult walk at all, but *cough* *hack* *blargh* *gack* *sigh*

I just want this to be over; I'm sick of spending the day tired because I haven't been breathing properly in my sleep. Somehow I have to force myself to eat square meals so that I've got the energy to fight it off.

And in the midst of all this coughing, nose-blowing, and generally highly-noticeable discomfort, one person whom I live with has not made any remark to me about it, let alone made any indication that somebody here is very, very sick. Guess who?
