Well that sucked.

Christ... August 2013 was like... a dread month.
Severe hangover (first time) + sugar binge (gummy worm genocide - long story) lead to cold clammyness and severe dehydration which inflammed my uvula to the point of no longer being able to breathe (as I have unusually large tonsils) as I slept regardless of whether or not I was using the cpap machine because I was also hit with a severe allergy attack that inflammed my sinuses so badly the moment I started losing consciousness my airways completely closed leading to wierd chirps and whistles (and what I thought were voices) which kept me antsy as I laid in bed failing to fall asleep that for a week or to had me convinced I was suffering from auditory hallucinations which ended up not being the case as I realised these noises only came from the muscle relaxation further compressing the airways and from there I had food poisoning from what I think had to have been the two nights of what I now think was bad sushi and some other mystery GI illness that felt like a rusty knife was sliding through my insides that had me [GROSS WARNING DO NOT READ]shitting so much blood I thought I was going to die[/GROSS WARNING DO NOT READ] and throughout it all I was tired and cold and miserable hating life and w/e and part of what started making me feel better was to start using reading glasses to work/ read/ draw to rest my weary eyes and to buy a new bed (just because) and although things symptoms started to improve I checked the date and upon realizing the sword of Damocles was just about to drop I compressed a month's worth of work into 6-7 days being all hopped up on 5-hour energy (grape), multi-vitamins, and a Hokuto No Ken marathon (ATTA!) and despite barely making it in time to make through the next month I realized just how much time I lost and still felt like a failure.
:edit:
I forgot to mention that a spider or something bit my face and I have this nipple sized bite/ blood/pus drooling absess under my right eye that I can see in my peripheral vision and that I'm currently having a long drawn out passive aggressive conversation about my upstairs neighbor and lazy ass kids who let their dog piss and shit all over the balcony which drips onto my patio and worse yet seeps into my laudry room where it pools on the floor and on top of my dryer while although not health related it made my mind feel all shitty all the while I was fighting intense fatigue from the lack of sleep that kept me from staying conscious for more than a few hours before I passed out again somedays being completely bed ridden!
And yes - I did go to the doctor. None of it was serious - it was just a few minor things made worse by chronic allergy symptoms that's all. I still need to schedule an additional checkup for certain things to rule them out but the doctor firmly believes those symptoms occured through heavy missuse of ibuprofin. It all still sucked though!
BREAKING BAD WAS GOOD TO ME THOUGH.
So yeah... that happened.

pop a couple multi vitamins and eat some eggs: help for me when I endulge
I've had leg pains, it started with extremely painful spasms, then went down to inability to walk, and now I can walk with a cane.
Still better than what your ordeal sounds like, frankly.
Hope this month works out better for you.
Sorry that happened.
*Bear trap snaps*
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~!
Didja go to he doctor?
1: DON'T overdo it when it comes to gummi worms.
2: Get to a hospital when your breathing became as hard as it did. That's what 911 is for.
3: When that much blood is coming out your bottom end, you WILL be going to, if not already in (as a result of Item 2) hospital.
Both the breathing and bleeding were extremely serious and, as I've just pointed out, you should have gone to hospital. That said, I'm glad you're doing better and hopefully you'll be back to normal before long.
hmm. The worst i've ever been sick was when I caught tonsillitis and couldn't eat without painkillers.
Christ. That sounds absolutely awful. Erm... Welcome to September! It can't possibly suck as much as August. /temptfate
I'll get a catapult for it and everything. xD
Well, uh... Wow. lol Glad to hear you're perking up and in somewhat good humour about it, at least.
