No the problem isn't allergies, but I've been taking those Clariton anyway just in case. They haven't helped at all. The last week has been the worst week ever, despite conference. My headaches are strong, persistent, they just won't leave no matter what I take. On top of that, the dizziness is back. I'm trying my best to cope with it but I just get horrible waves of nausea and dizziness every time I turn my head, so I'm pretty much walking around like Batman did in Batman Begins because he couldn't turn his head. I also always feel like I'm about to faint, so the last couple of days I've been doing almost nothing but laying in bed for hours on end, I don't even know how I managed to get shopping done today.
Monday was the worst night. I came home from my zone feeling terrible and I just collapsed on the coach telling my roommates that I wouldn't be able to make it to district meeting tonight. A little bit after they left I knew I was going to throw up so I ran into the bathroom and vomited profusely for about 20 minutes, got a good amount on my white shirt too. Having no roommates around and no way to contact anyone else I just layed around in the bathroom waiting for them to come back. After about an hour and a half they finally came back and I told them to go get Elder Davis immediately because I think I may need to go to the hospital. They assured me I was fine, ran out and bought some Sprite and crackers, and had me eat those for a sec. Then they gave me a blessing and got me into bed. As soon as they were out I then promptly vomited all over myself and my bed (it came out of nowhere.) I got into the shower and washed myself off and when I came out they thankfully cleaned up my bed for me, put my old stuff in the washers, and put on my extra sheets and found some extra blankets and I slept until the morning, and they rushed me to the nurse's office.
The doctor's and nurse's there have no idea what to do with me, so Elder Brandon's trying to get me in with a specialist that apparently takes a while to get into, meanwhile I'm not getting any better. And I don't think it's stress because the only thing I'm stressed about is how much of my zone I've been missing lately because I've been too sick to serve.
Conference was still enjoyable though. I thought I said that the missionaries watch in the theaters at the visitor's center on Temple Square, that's where I saw it. We're not allowed to watch it on tv over at senior missionary apartments, nor are we allowed to listen to it on the radio or whatever. Priesthood Session was the best, we had seats up at the front of the front on the very right where the general authorities walk in. None of them came over to shake our hands or anything but as they were walking out they all waved directly at me and my fellow missionaries and Elder Holland even gave us a thumbs up and a righteous fist of power.
I'm already out of time and this is all I managed to type up so sorry about that. I'm going to go talk to Elder Brandon and see if I can arrange a time to e-mail when I'm not feeling so sick.
