Oh gods it hurrrrrts.


So, I've been quite sick all day.

(For those of you who came late to the game, allow me to note that I'm allergic to milk*.)

Last night I decided to get a caramel machjwhftagbe from Starbucks because I was mad-tired and coffee gives me more of a jolt than soda (hee hee, hee hee hee). Being the genius I am, I forgot to specify that it be made with soy. So I chug half of it, feel it hit my system, and chuck the rest. Because, ew, coffee.

I go about the rest of the night, go home, go to sleep, etc etc etc.

I wake up this morning and it feels like something is try to claw its way out of my stomach and through my abdomen. Holy crap. I feel like I'm dying. In waves.

Also, the cat is eating my foot, which hurts because I jammed my toes trying to push back and get away from the other cat that was trying to eat my leg.

I am so broken today. And owwwwwwwwwwwwww my stomachhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.


Obligatory side note: That's allergic, not lactose intolerant. *The basic difference - possibly the only difference - is that all those neat-o pills for lactose intolerant people? Make allergic people twice as sick. I'm just noting this because I don't want 50 frillion "Oh, go get these pills/this drink/whathaveyou and you'll be fine!" comments.

Well, they do have medicines/shots available for other allergies... maybe you could find one for milk allergies? (Not those pills/drinks/whatevers mentioned in your footnote)

My jerk reaction would be to install Alka-Seltzer, problem solved. Worked for me last time I got sick off of what was possibly soured Starbucks, though it could have been a soured salad instead or something.
