Uh, so THAT'S why I'm not hungry!

Uh, I have a severe kidney infection. Like, if it's not at least a little better tomorrow, they're going to admit me to the hospital. For the past week I've been fighting a UTI, but this morning I had a fever and couldn't keep anything down and other kidney infection symptoms that I won't list here.

So I go to the only open walk-in clinic around and they gave me a shot a zillion prescriptions, watched me for a little while, and said if I was still not able to keep stuff down tonight or tomorrow, they are going to send me to the hospital.

The meds I'm on, though, I can't use if I drive, so I'm trying a) to determine whether I can go to school tomorrow - whether I'm up to it, and b) whether I have a ride. :-)

oh my gosh! I would definitely think hard about staying home -- finals are so close that it's not worth it to go to class if it's going to delay your recovery. It's not too bad to get notes from someone. :)

hope you feel better soon!

I'm just afraid of the whole attendance policy thing. :-(

I've missed a few of Crim Law classes b/c my husband was sick and I needed to pick him up, I was sick...

definitely talk to your professors if you think it's going to be a problem to stay home -- but it sounds to me like you are *so* not the kind of student that such policies are aimed at! if your meds make you unable to drive, are you really going to absorb that much from class anyway?

(I just hate to see people not getting well as quickly as they should -- it's something I'm guilty of, too!)
