Update r.e. my 2am whinge
Following the crap night that I had, Dad and I decided this morning that the best course of action would be to go to the hospital for treatment. So I have spent my day hospitalised and receiving intravenous therapy to reduce the swelling in my neck and face plus some super beefy painkillers to make me feel a bit more human.We don't quite have a firm diagnosis yet. The leading favourite was glandular fever (mono for all my American friends) until I told them that I've had glandular before and the monospot test came back negative. The leading favourite now seems to be either a rampant form of tonsilitis or some unspecified viral infection and a bit of cellulitis (inflammation of tissues - which explains why my face was so sore).
In order to treat this I have been admitted into a relatively new program that is offered by the hospital. Because I am mobile and seem well otherwise I am a perfect candidate for the Hospital in the Home program, a program that allows me to recieve my treatment as necessary from doctors and nurses in the comfort of my own home. Until I am better (which will hopefully be 2 or 3 days) I will be visited twice a day by a nurse and a doctor who will administer my IV therapy, and anything else I need, in my lounge room. Awesome program!!!
On the down side...
It's my birthday on Wednesday and I've had to postpone my party that I had planned for Friday night. Looks like I'll be spending my birthday sitting quietly at home with a needle in my arm.
But at least I won't be sick anymore (I hope, fingers crossed!)!!!

I hope you feel better soon, Yaeli. A visit from your boyfriend might be a big help but the distance might make that a problem.
Happy birthday on Wednesday. It's a shame that you're not going to be able to celebrate in the fashion you'd planned. Maybe the week after you can have a delayed birthday party.
Sounds like you may actually be on the road to recovery... I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!
That sounds like a neat program -- Wish Canada had something like that! A lot cheaper than a hospital bed, for sure.
Happy early birthday, just in case I forget to come by on Wednesday!!
