Well that never happened because my tongue swelled up to the point I couldn’t talk and all of these sores started appearing. Oh and half of the flesh on my tongue just FELL OFF. so emergency medical appointment happened.

so emergency medical appointment happened. Doctors don’t know what is going on, but got meds to help with swelling and pain, gave me a doc note saying I need to stay home for a few days and passed out.

woke up in the middle of the night to a voicemail asking where I am, call them back and whatnot. They know I am sick. They expect me to be in when I was just less than 24 hours before throwing up my guts and had a fever of 102? With who knows what going on with my mouth.

I’m still sick af and still have a fever of 102, and my tongue is still swollen and I can’t talk.

So I’m going to have to come into work tomorrow with whatever I have so I can hand them a note explaining where I was. Because I can’t talk.
99% positive I’m going to be written up.
