*Sniffle*

I am the biggest baby ever when I am sick.  I whine, I cry, im needier, I don't even recognize my self when im sick.  
I seemed to have picked up a cold....oh glory day. My tonsils are already abnormaly large so just the slightest nasel drainage makes them larger. When I bend my head or open my mouth to wide my tonsils make me gag.
Tonight when I lay down on our sick wedge that puts you at a 30° angle my lymphnodes are so swollen in the back of my neck they hurt to touch.

Now im face with a new dilemma.  I've never been able to take cold medicine...im on immune supressents..should I stop taking them until I feel better? Or since my immune system is already down does that even matter?
I can't really take cold meds because I react very easily with them either my heart skips beats or I can't function for three days....
I would get sick on a weekend when I can't call my doctor.  So ill ride the wave till monday.

I think colds and flues tend to be a little harder on me then others.  I think its because im already in so much pain...and add more body aches on top it feels like im just over loaded...and it takes me longer to heal up.
