The Great Wall of China

Here I am ill yet again but it isn't what I normally get - oh no I had to go one better and get really ill. Monday lunch time I started to feel ill and my throat started to get sore and as the afternoon wore on I started to feel a lot worse so by 6pm I was wanting to go to bed.
About 7pm I climb into bed and wake at 9:30am the next morning feeling terrible. In fact I came down stairs and sat down and thought 'I can't cope with this' and knew I had to see a Doctor that day so I went and phoned my dad and asked him to get me into the docs today, I said I couldn't wait till tomorrow and needed to go today. Ten minutes later he rings me back and tells me I have gotten in that day at 4:20pm and I was so happy though at the same time I was wishing that I had gotten in by lunch time but I couldn't complain as I managed to get in which rarely happens as it's one of those surgery's were you have to ring on the day to get an appointment.
I then said I need someone to take me as I have no energy at all and I can't make the walk down there let alone back so he rung my mum and luckily she couldn't come across and take me. - the actual last time I saw my mum was the last time I went to the docs in June -. So that was sorted and all I had to do was wait for my mum to come at 3:30 and that sounds easy but I felt dreadful and just wanted something to make me feel well again. I didn't go back to bed as I was worried about sleeping through my alarm which I have done when I have been ill in the past so I was forced to stay up and wait. The longer the day went on the worse I felt and I just couldn't wait to go to the docs and spent most of the day close to tears (which isn't like me) because I felt so rough.
My mum turned up at 3:30 and I even managed to get a hug off her which I needed so badly as I was just so close to tears all day lol I am such a wimp!!
Get to the surgery at 4:15 and sit waiting and more and more people get called into see my doc and I think I'm going to be next and it never happens and then it's 4:45pm and I still haven't been seen and someone else goes in before me so I didn't get seen till 5pm which I wasn't happy about as I'm sat there feeling rough with a high temperature and it was boliling in there and was a hot day outside.
I eventually get in and I tell him what is wrong with me and he checks my temperature which was too high, then he looked in my mouth and did my bloody pressure and then listened to my chest and felt my glands etc and it turns out I have a cold and tonsillitis. So not only do I get one but Ii get two things which I am not one bit pleased about as one of them alone feels bad enough but two isn't very nice to have at the same time.
Whist I am in there I tell him I've been ill non stop (except a day here and there) for almost 10 weeks now and tell him what I get when I am ill and he asks me some questions and tell him I had a series of blood tests a few months back so he gets them up on the computer and looks over them and it turns out I had them in April (the end of) and I didn't realise it was that long ago. He said he is going to have me tested for some of the things I was tested for before again and also test me for some other things. He then gives me a note to hand in saying that I need to make an appointment with the nurse and also was a list of what I am to be tested for and he also gave me a prescription for some antibiotics for my throat which I was so grateful for.
I then went and booked in with the nurse for the next day at 1:30pm thinking I won't feel any worse the next day and go off and get my drugs from the chemist. My mum then dropped me off at home and I spent the next 2 hours trying to get hold of my dad because I was hungry and needed to eat before I went to bed.
I went to bed and woke up 6 hours later feeling dreadful so got up and took painkillers and a antibiotic (meant to take one every 6 hours) and then I went back to bed and slept for another 6 hours and got up and took my pills again. I felt so rough when I got up and knew there was no way I could get dressed and go to the docs again because I felt a lot worse than the day before (my cold got a lot heavier) so I got my appointment changed to Monday at 11:30am which I should feel a lot better by.
For the next few days I took my painkillers and antibiotics every 6 hours and even woke up around the 6 hour mark to take them except last night when I managed to sleep all the way through till 9am this morning and not having any for 12 hours which is kind of bad because I am meant to take my antibiotics every 6 hours and yesterday morning I had it late too and I don't feel much better than I did a few days ago and am sat here really hot and tired but I decided to get up and about 8-9 hours so I am really tired about 8-9pm tonight and can have an early night as I have some things to sort out tomorrow morning before I can go and get my blood tested so I need to get as much sleep as I can because at the moment with me being ill I need as much sleep as I can get.

So last week with being ill I didn't get much done if anything as I lay around and when I was up I had DVDs on TV though I can't remember what I watched other than Rush Hour which I watched Friday evening.
I was meant to do a TMA (my final one for A217) on Tuesday, Wednesday and then finish it on Thursday but I was too ill to do anything so I emailed my tutor and I asked for an extension and I finally got a reply on Thursday evening (12 hours before it was due) saying I can't have a extension on my final TMA. I was not one bit pleased as I missed doing the TMA before because I was ill but this time I was a lot more ill than that and I couldn't sit down and do a TMA so I was close to tears because I had been doing really well on that course and been getting the highest marks ever on a arts course and was aiming for a pass 2 (which is a B) and was looking forward to that though it all depended what I got in my exam. Anyway I checked and I can have a zero and still have enough points to pass as long as I pass the exam but I have gone from a possible pass 2 to being only able to get a pass 4 which I am not pleased as I wanted and needed a pass 2 on this course to help me get a 2.2 degree. So me isn't a happy bunnie at the moment.
The exam for A217 is three weeks on Tuesday and of course I haven't done any revision yet and I am worried about the exam and I know I won't do much revision as I can't concentrate reading the same thing over and over again. Today I am going to try and put a revision plan together for it and get stuck in tomorrow afternoon if I feel up to it but if not it will be Tuesday.
I also need to do a revision plan for A207 but I never even got a specimen exam paper for that so I need to contact the OU because I really need one for that as it will give me some sort of idea of what to expect and then I will know which ares to study but I am guessing it was like the last one so I need to maybe go over four blocks which is a lot but a lot less than the possible 8 or 9 so that is OK I guess. I just need to get myself really motivated and do at least 4 hours of reading a day 5 days a week. I can and may do more than 5 days a week but we will have to see about that. I do want to pass the exams and get them out the way so I am going to work a little harder than what I worked last year which was nill :os

I went shopping yesterday and I felt so ill yet what did I do? That's right I drove because I love driving and I felt strange when I was driving so it probably wasn't the best idea that I was driving but I did OK I guess though it wore me out and I am still mega tired from that now. It was an experience I can tell you that. - Oh talking about driving I got a Sun yesterday because there is a FREE driving lesson for everyone in it so I am going to collect the tokens because I might as well have a free driving lesson hehe. I am meant to having driving lessons now but with being ill a lot my dad doesn't want to book them and then me be ill and not be able to have them. I had 20 which really can barely be counted as ten and I know ten more will be enough so I will have learned pretty quick with no many lessons and driving my dads car isn't a help either so if anyone thinks that don't because I have forgot so much stuff and picked up so many bad habits that need ironing out a.s.a.p. though I have stuck to my push-pull stearing which I hate.

Anyway I need to go as I am too hot and need a drink!!!
