I had to stop taking the antibiotics as they were making me extremely sick even though I was taking them with anti-sickness pills. I had no appetite and what little I did eat didn't stay down for long. In 3 days I lost the 6 pounds in weight I had spent weeks putting back on.
I feel very isolated, I can't really go anywhere in case I catch something and no one wants to visit me in case they gave me a cold!
Hopefully when I am better that I will be able to put my experience to some use and advise and visit others who are going through pneumonia or septicemia or have and need some support or just a friendly chat. That way it won't all have been a waste.
I was thinking, we say 'sick as a dog' because dogs will eat anything and are often sick if they do. I'm sick but can't eat anything so I'm sick as a........what?!
