Very well put Charm I like that! I have to say waking up this morning I do not feel as nausious or tired as I did yesterday but damn is my throat sore and swollen. I does however seem to get better throughout the day and the morning is always the worst. If I fight like hell and endure the pain in the morning drinking water when the percocet finally kicks in I am able to eat, right now it would be pretty difficult! At least I have 2 days off coming up maybe that will give me a little bit of relief!
