i sat next to a blue monkey and got the Murtabak virus.
well not really. and no there's no such virus. but i do have upper respiratory tract infection from i dont know how. and dont nag, i did go to the doctor yesterday (only because i need to get well by wed for the BCLS test). and it was a funny visit. first i was mistaken for a boy (again..hey weewee, you've seen my new hair, do i look anything like a guy??),and after the mandatory stetoscope on the lung walls thingy, was prescribed paracetamol for a fever which i do not have, chlorpheniramine for a flu which i do not have either, promethazine for cough relief apparently, and these lozenges which melts powder-ily and leave a disgusting aftertaste.
any wonder why people dont like visiting the doctors?
but hey, they're doctors right? so they should know better than me at least on how to treat URTI. so i took the 2 H1 blockers. nothing happened. still coughing, still hurts to take a deep breath, still voice-less, and why is it not even bringing the promised drowsiness??
nvm..anti-histamine needs time to work right? needs a higher loading dose? so we'll up the dose.
and thats where the fun begins. :D
no i didnt overdose, or even became drowsy. but oh yes, they did cross my BBB. the weirdest, vivid dreams which spills into waking. was so disorientated when i woke i actually forgot my own name. how cool was that? :) but it's really disconcerting cos this afternoon's nap after the 4th dosage cycle, it wasnt really a sleep as it was me being in bed aware of me dreaming about a block of wood and the gleefulness as i try to count the number of striations on it. plus i think i talked, or chuckled during the process.
fun with drugs. no wonder ppl use them recreationally. :)
still, i wish they gave me smthg stronger, that'll actually get me better by wed instead of keeping my dream wanderings entertaining.
