Seriously, why make a fuss?
It turns out that it's just that time of the month. No wonder my body was so upset yesterday. Unfortunately for me, it has to make itself known. It's pretty bad this time. I was fine at work when I wasn't moving too much. At least, I was fine in the morning.
It seems I fainted after coming out of the toilet just before lunch. And so, here I am in the hospital having been fed painkillers and on a drip.
The doctors keep frowning at me, my ECG and my blood tests. They want to keep me overnight for observation. How do I tell them that they've got it all wrong and that I'm fine? There's nothing wrong with me and they won't find anything much. A bit of sleep and I'll be right as rain.
I'm going to have to take money out of my savings to pay for my medical fees, aren't I? I hope it's not too much.
While the compensation money and back pay were quite a lot, at the same time, it's not really that much when looked at in the big scheme of things. I'm already eating a lot of snacks while I'm working, courtesy of my desk mates. We've been sharing snacks while we work so that we don't have to stop for breaks so often and can get more done.
Stony Boss is spitting mad, but it's not like I've done anything wrong. It's just that I'm so underweight at the moment that just about anything can happen until I manage to put on some weight. I wonder if and when that will ever happen.
It's not that I haven't been eating. Even looking back at my journal entries, I've mentioned eating a few times. I don't have an eating disorder, ok?
At least he brought me my journal so that I would have something to do, but writing is tiring and look at how messy my handwriting is.
