being unwell ...

... is something I am pretty good at. I have been ill twice since August (cough for 3 weeks, and now I am feeling dizzy all the time, with a temperature - checked by the nurses on the ward!). Someone even said to me last week - "everytime I meet you, you are either coughing or have something wrong with you".

I don't know why either, but I have definitely picked up more bugs since I started working at the hospital (although not C.difficle or MRSA). The longest time at which I have been well was when I was away on summer holiday this year ~ staggering 8 weeks!

At least, this year, with no studying after work, I can crawl up in bed, watch dvd and have lots of hot chocolate (can't complain!) when I can't bear to face the world ...
