\"Picture0019\"<\/a> Yeah, well all hope of it just being allergies is gone out the window.\u00a0\u00a0 I went to work this morning feeling slightly crap and by the end of the afternoon I was downright miserable.<\/p>\n

I can’t stop coughing, my throat hurts, I’m sneezing my brains out and am full of snot.\u00a0\u00a0 Those aren’t even the worst bits though.\u00a0 The fucking dizziness is back!\u00a0 Argh!<\/p>\n

It was so hard to concentrate on what I was doing, and even more difficult to take in new things and remember them, which is pretty much everything still.\u00a0\u00a0 Every day I learn a ton of new things and usually I remember them but today it was in one ear and out the other.\u00a0\u00a0 I hate being unable to think about what I’m doing clearly, especially when I am dealing with things that require attention to detail.<\/p>\n

I’m going back to the doctor again <\/em>in the morning and so help me god, if I don’t get some kind of drugs or at least answers about what the heck is going on, I’m going to be very upset.<\/p>\n

If it was just the cold, fine… but it’s not.\u00a0 It’s this dizziness that has been dragging on for weeks, months even.\u00a0\u00a0 It’s not always been this bad but it comes and goes but never goes for good.\u00a0 It’s so hard because I’m up and down all the time at work getting documents etc and every time I stand up and walk somewhere in the office I feel like I’m drunk.\u00a0 The other day I crashed into a cabinet.\u00a0 THAT was embarassing.<\/p>\n

It sucks, because I want to be well, happy and energetic going to work.\u00a0 I really like my job and the people I work with but what must they think with me being so new and having all these issues with being sick.\u00a0 I took off 3 days the week before last, then managed to stick it out last week and actually felt a lot better by Thursday \/ Friday.\u00a0 Now here I am again, not just with the dizziness but the flu on top of it.\u00a0 Unless it improves by tomorrow I honestly can’t see me lasting through the entire day, but how in the hell do I not go when I want so desperately to be liked and be a good worker so that my contract is extended.\u00a0 They can’t fire me for being sick, but they can certainly not give me another contract if they think I’m not worth it.<\/p>\n

It’s funny because when I worked at the call center a while back, I would have taken any excuse to not have to go there, but I actually really LIKE this job.\u00a0 That’s what is ticking me off so much, that my body won’t just let me work in peace!<\/p>\n

Dammit… I hope to god I feel better tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
