Off work and feeling very ill

Had to ring in sick this morning - temperature, swollen glands, cough, sore throat, streaming cold and kidneys hurt so much I could hardly get dressed to go to the doctors (emergency appt) at 12.20pm who issued me with antIbiotics. Got home and had baked beans on toast and been dossing on the sofa with lemsip, blankets and cat all afternoon. I hate being ill especially by myself - it's so lonely and my sickness record at work is not good - well that's an understatement!
