lol woke up again but this time just dripping with sweat. Changed t-shirts and side of the bed again so it's dry. What a rollercoaster. Feeling a lot better though besides the sniffles but according to the internet I'm in for at least a couple of days of this fever so who knows how I'll wake up next.

Wheeeeeee! ๐ŸŽข

On a positive note, you are doing all this sweating on someone else's linen. My matress and topper are both stained from after the fever from the vaccinations and I had to wash all the sheets and things myself. So it might not be how you envisaged spending your holiday, but there is a silver lining.

This does actually help my mood about it, thanks!

Sounds like a textbook case. Savour your ability to taste and smell food while you still can!

If you can manage to secure some hydralite it's worth it (or even jelly beans and salted chips). I lived on the stuff when I had that fever and it was a saviour. (the sweats are a sign the fever is breaking tho - hang in there. It gets better in a day or two)
