I have tonsillitis it has been really bad high fever, sickness , hallucinating , awful throat. It started on thurs night and on Saturday I saw a dr and got antibiotics. I spent fri, sat and Sunday in bed. I haven't eaten. Today I got up and have eaten a bowl of soup. I feel better than I did, but not welll. I feel very weak and need to sit down lots. My eyes keep going a bit blurry and my throat still hurts but not as severely as it did.
Anyway, I work Fridays and Tuesday's. I was also supposed to work this weekend on that sat.so I phoned in on the fri and sat sick. I work in a shop and am stood up from 10-6 . I have to talk to people and I am not sure I am to it. Should I phone in sick tomorrow so I can fully recover?

Yes absolutely. You're ill.

Get well soon.

It can take a good week to recover from a nasty bout of tonsilitis. Hope you feel better soon.

YANBU, definitely take the day off. I had tonsillitis 2 years ago and I couldn't get out of bed for a week! I was lucky I had my mum to help take the kids to school and pick them up whilst DH was at work.
