khiemtranIt started when I was at the local train station waiting to meet an old uni friend. It was a freezing cold night and I was shivering despite wearing both a jacket and a jumper. Bit-by-bit, it began to dawn on me that I was a bit too cold for it to be just the weather...
Next came the drive to pick up Liem from daycare, and I soon had the heater on full-blast and was still feeling a chill right down my back. We made it to the restaurant, and some hot tea and soup, which warmed me up for a little bit. I didn't have enough appetite to finish the soup. We had barely started the main courses (including Queensland mud crab, no less), when the nausea began. We stayed another ten or fifteen minutes, then had the food boxed up and headed home. I spent the next seventeen hours alternatively shivering, sweating and wanting to throw up.
By 12 noon the next day, the nausea had ended, and by 8 pm the chills had stopped too. I went to work this morning feeling fine, if sore and sorry. Now to catch up on the last 24 hours of lost work...
