Pardon the vent.
I have been sick, almost consistently, since the end of July. I spent almost all of August with a viral infection that took all my energy, and knocked my fitness level down substantially. Since then, I’ve been hit with a boatload of illnesses. I get this is cold and flu season, but this is ridiculous. I’m home right now with food poisoning (couldn’t be helped, but still) and a cold.
I’m sick of missing school, and I’m sure my teachers are getting frustrated with my absences. I know there isn’t much I can do, and that staying home is the better option when I’m sick, but I will always worry about letting teachers down. I have responsibilities with the musical and I feel awful for not being there. Mostly I’m just frustrated with never feeling good. I rarely go out, and I just want to sleep all the time. My doctor said it’s just “bad luck”, and there isn’t much he can do.
I’ve tried a ton of things. Various medicines, vitamins, treatments, nothing is helping.
So, is there anything else I can try? What helps you guys kick an illness?
