Getting Sick Sucks

So I found out today that I got the Flu and it really sucks. The test to prove that you have the Flu really sucks and the Flu itself really sucks. I woke up this morning felling aches, a headache, nausea, sore throat, and stuffed up nose. I originally thought that I just had a bad cold, but when I realized that I got the chills I went to the On-Campus doctor to get checked out.

The wait was not supper bad compared to the wait times that I've had at other Doctors offices. I only had to sit in the waiting room for about 10 minutes before one of the nurses came to get me. We did the regular round of small talk and the simple stuff like weight and blood pressure. After that the nurse took me to the room to wait for the Doctor. I only waited about another 10 minutes for the Doctor. Then the real fun began.

The Doctor looked in my ears and down my throat then asked me if I wanted to do the Flu test to see if it was really the Flu. I called my mom to ask if that was alright and see said that it was. So I agreed to the test. The test consisted of shoving a small cue tip up my nose really deep. It was one of the strangest feelings I have ever felt. Now I am off to sleep.
