7 days and still swollen

fourdays.jpgIt's been a whopping seven days since I first realised I had mumps. I feel like shit and am still swollen. You think I'm not telling the truth? Have a look for yourself on the left. Not much fun let me tell you.I must admit I've been a bit slack with the photos so I only have four photos out of what should have been seven. Sorry bout that!I'm now going to be completely open and say that I have started to feel some testicular pain. Apparently it's meant to start in your right testicle. That's where it's started today.I called the Doctor and guess what he said? Nothing. Two doctors have now apologised to me for being unable to treat me or any of my symptoms. What is that? For fuck sakes it's the fucking 21st century, we can fly to goddam Mars but can't find a cure or preventative treatment for mumps sufferers.I'm sick to death of being so sick. It's really enough now, enough TV, enough Mac, enough blogging, enough Xbox360, it's just enough.
