Sick and Tired of being SICK!!!

So I've been sick for like 3 weeks.  I got sick on a Thursday stayed home from my job on Friday and Monday, went to my old job on Tuesday worked all week still sick.  Got better before I started my new job.  Worked all week my first week not sick until Thursday!  Then BAM! SICK! Monday after work went to the Care spot to see what was going on.  Tested for Strep and the FLU which the Dr. was pretty sure I had the FLU.  Both test came back NEGATIVE for either one!! So the Dr. guesses (which is what I'm thinking) that it was a sinus infection, prescribes a 5 day Zpack because it's not a big sinus infection just a little one (AS IF..remember when we used to say that?  Anyway I digress) My throat was so raw and I had a little cough, a fever and wanted to die.  Flash forward to today and my throat is not so raw, My cough sounds like I'm trying to expel every organ in my body up through my mouth, I have no voice.  But on the plus side I have no fever.  But if this coughing doesn't stop I'm going to lose my mind!!!
Since I have no voice I've been playing my own little game of charades.  It's funny really.  My sister is AWESOME at knowing exactly what I'm trying to say.  Also one of my friends is great at it.  However.  I have noticed that because I can't communicative verbally, the people who can talk are using hand motions and whispering also!   Really!??  YOU CAN TALK, I CAN HEAR!  Why are you doing that?  The lady at the bank did that today.  I deposited my check and she said hi I waved and motioned that I couldn't talk and she whispered back to me.  SMH.  Oh well it's funny.  Hopefully I'll get my voice and health back soon!   I'm tired of not talking. Of course I'm sure everyone else is glad for the break.  LOL.
Hoping to get well SOON.  Till then.....
