Fever, In The Morning, Fever All Through The Night

I started coming down with some sort of cold/flu bug Thursday at work, and except for a brief sojourn out yesterday to refill over-the-counter meds, have spent most of the last three days flat on my back sweating like a Swede in a sauna, and listening to my sinuses wheeze and gurgle like a radiator in a 5th floor walk-up. Of the roughly 36 hours I've been in bed, I think I got maybe 12 hours total sleep; after a certain point I think I maxed out on TheraFlue and Sudafed to the point that, I'd get maybe 1 1/2 hours of symptom relief for each 4 hour dosage.

Have a full day of tax prep today, which I can't cancel because I've got no slots left for rescheduling. Trying to go cold-turkey on the meds today, if only so that I can get maximum effect from them when I finally get a chance to crawl back into bed this evening; needless to say, all social engagements have been called off through the weekend, and although I'm pretty sure I'm on the downhill side of things, I may still be iffy for going in to work tomorrow.

I really hate being sick.
