... although it'd be totally allowed to be, post-TTP ... but I think I have pneumonia.
I realise I sound exactly like a hypochondriac, but let me explain, the bronchitis hasn't gone away. My laryngitis is sometimes there, sometimes not. My coughing has got so bad that I've puked several times. My back hurts so bad I can't lay down easily, but it hurts to stand up.
On the NHS website (not NHS direct) it says people with auto-immune problems can have bronchitis develop into pneumonia. Hey, guess what TTP is? And pneumonia, unlike bronchitis, lists nausea and pains and breathing problems (which I also have) as symptoms. So it's really just math.
And someone I work with said she thinks I have it too, without prompting.
I actually hope we're wrong. I'm meant to be in Italy in 10 days. We are currently at the five year anniversary of my transfer from my local hospital to the specialist one (oh yeah, I can track this sort of shit) - it's the worst time for me to be sick.
I fucking hate my body.
