I am finally making it out of bed. It got too smoky yesterday in the lobby, so I headed back up stairs. It was a good thing. I would have coughing fits, which was followed up by a fever, achy and the chills. I threw up all over the floor, trying to make it to the bathroom and threw up more trying to clean it up.
I took more of the cough syrup, even though the lady at the store said to just take one dose. I couldn't read the instructions and felt too bad to make it down to the lobby to have someone translate for me. I didn't think I would overdose, but it made me throw up again.
I had no idea what time Andy would be back, as I had no energy to leave the room. I figured he would be back at some point, but was so miserable it ddn't matter.
By the time he came back at 7pm, I was feeling a little better but my throat was so sore I couldn't swollow. There was no 24 hour pharmacy, so I would have to wait until the next day to find something. It is kind of stressful knowing thta you can't do anything about it.
We went around the corner for dinner, and I had some tomato soup and water. It was really good, but I could barely eat any. We have since learned that you have to ask for the check. Andy told them we didn't want anything else, but the check never came. I had to leave because the man next to me started smoking. and I couldn't take it.
I didn't cough too much in the night, and it seems the tightness in my lungs has broken up. Andy brought me up tea with honey, and these little bisuits, since I didn't want to go to breakfast.
He is so sweet.
I just got back from the pharmacy and got cough drops, or whatever they call them here. I had to describe my ailment and she came up with some tablets.
I'm going back upstairs. I really want to get over this, so it doesn't ruin the rest of the trip. It is super weird because I don't get sick very often.
Update: Andy came back, and we went to Mister Noodle for dinner. Pho Ga is the same here, so we both ordered it. We're getting pretty good at recognizing stuff so that is a plus.
He went out for filmmakers drinks until about 3am. Man, I don't know now he does it. :)
