Will I ever get better???????

Last night I woke up to go to the bathroom and the minute I threw the covers back I immdediately started shivering. At first I didn't think anything of it, because I was hot when I went to sleep, so I figured maybe I was just cold now. But when it happened a second time, I started to wonder if I had a fever. So I climbed out of bed, quickly threw my robe on for warmth and headed for the thermometer. Sure enough, 101 degrees! I was feeling HORRIBLE! Achey, stuffy, coughing, so I fixed myself some hot chocolate, took two Tylenol, and tried to fall back asleep on the couch, snuggled up with my Barkley dog. I think I slept in 30 minute increments. At 400, Madison woke up crying from a bad dream. I went in to get her, but I was just so exhausted. I held her for a little bit and she calmed down, but started crying again when I tried to lay her back in her crib. I went to get Eric, and now we're all sleeping in the living room. He finally took her back to bed at some point.

When he got up I was still running a fever of 100. I got Madie dressed so he could take her to daycare, called my boss to let her know I wouldn't be there today, and then I just lost it. I just started crying because I'm so tired of not feeling well. Getting upset obviously didn't help because then I gagged, almost puked, peed my pants, and got a bloody nose, all within less than a minute. Now I was even more upset. Happy Valentine's Day to me. I called Mom to get her advice, she recommended I try to call the doctor right then because the office didn't open until 830. I left a message for the doc on call, and she called me back within 10 minutes. She thinks I just have the flu, to keep taking the Keflex and Tylenol, and if that doesn't break the fever to call back. All I know is that I feel like I got ran over by a train. I can't remember the last time I felt this bad. I just want to be healthy for when this little baby decides to come out. Please pray for me.
