For the past two weeks I've been coughing like a seal. It's no longer as bas as it used to be, but still too much and my chest still hurts occasionally from over-stretching my ribs. Lots of green/yellow (read: infected) mucus as well and it feels like breathing isn't as light a task as it should be anymore. I should visit a doctor.
In fact, I bloody well should visit a doctor, soon. This all (plus my inability to gain weight) sounds a lot like cystic fibrosis which only happens to be the most common fatal autosomal recessive disease in Caucasians. The median lifespan of victims to the disease is a mere 37. Funny, always figured I wouldn't live to see thirty.
I should visit a doctor.
17:15 update: apparently cystic fibrosis is usually diagnosed in the first few years of life, so I'm putting my hopes on H5N1, sinusitis or longue cancer now.
