Yeah, some of you are probably wondering where I’m going with a title like that. So, I’ll indulge you a bit… 😉 Last Sunday (roughly 2 weeks after IML) I started feeling really run down, Monday I had some coughing, Tuesday I still felt run down, Wednesday I felt completely back to normal and actually hooked up with the masculine piss bottom I fucked a year ago (got a video of it this time as well – write up is coming). Afterwards I went out for a drink at Rawhide, but the crowd didn’t interest me so I just stayed for one drink (plus I was driving – so I didn’t want to get drunk).

When I came home the walk from the garage to the apartment was torture. The stuff I was carrying felt like lead weights and at one point I even felt tightness in my chest. When I finally got home I just collapsed. I took a bath and tried to recuperate. Fast forward to about 4am – I wake up thanks to my dog who’s crawled on the bed. I get up and feel like shit. My lower back is KILLING me. I take a couple asprin, and some cough syrup and go back to bed. I don’t sleep well and wake up late.

Thursdays are a busy day for me ’cause I have to get a bunch of porn blog posts done. Without going into details I get in a fight with my boyfriend which turns out to be a huge fight, but I have to try to stay focused on my work. I feel like shit, but just push forward. By Thursday night I just want to crawl into bed, which I do.

By Friday I’m in sorta rough shape – initially the coughing can be controlled with cough syrup and the sore back with Motrin, but I still feel completely run down – so I just stay in bed most of the day. My boyfriend and I manage to patch things back up late in the day (which is a really long fight for us). My symptoms get worse as the day goes on and by the end of the day I can’t control the coughing – it’s pretty much constant. I sleep on the couch so I don’t keep my boyfriend up all night.

Today has been an incredibly rough day as well. Light fever on and off (which makes me a sweaty mess), coughing I can’t stop and the sore lower back (which had gotten a bit better) started getting worse.

Now that some of you think I’m going through the “fuck flu” I’ll burst your bubble… 🙂 What I didn’t tell you was my boyfriend has had similar symptoms – a few days before me. His horrible day was last Thursday and whenever he exerts himself he gets sick the next day or two, which is what’s happening to me. So whatever he’s got, I’ve got and given our lack of a sex life, it’s not sexual.

If’ I’ve got anything major it’s more likely to be swine flu than HIV. Why is it that you always get sickest on the weekends when the doctor’s office is closed? I’m not about to go waiting for hours in the emergency room, but I’d really like to know what it is and get something to control the symptoms… Oh well…

UPDATE: Saw the doctor today (Monday) and I have Bronchitis, but it probably started with something viral. Hopefully it will be over soon.
