thereyougothenwell, i guess it had to happen eventually. i picked up N's tummy bug. I went to bed at 8.30 on saturday night and had to get up 3 times that night. then all seemed to be ok except for being too tired to get out of bed all day sunday. i eventually got up at about 2 o'clock yesterday (monday) afternoon, for maybe 2 hours tops. i had something other than toast to eat. big mistake, as i found out when I got hit with it again at 8 o'clock at night. and 3 or 4 times in the night again.
so we phoned the western this morning, and they told me to go to the GP to get my bloods checked and to get some nice antispasmodic drugs to make the tummy cramps go away. interestingly when we got to the GP's, the western had already been on the phone to them. if i hadn't called, they would have chased me up. so, we're waiting for the blood test results - if my white count is low, i have antibiotics to take.
i'm pretty dehydrated, so i keep trying to drink, but even that takes energy i don't really have. this ain't a lot of fun, you know?
at least i'm not puking as well.
my mum is still here, but barbara comes back today, so mum is going to stay with her friends for tonight and tomorrow. we were supposed to be going out tomorrow, just the two of us to do fun stuff like a bit of shopping and lunch, but i guess that's out of the question now.
Bill has taken today off work, he's at the library with the boys just now, and mum and i are each sat at our respective computers....
i am so very very tired. i wonder if i can still knit?
