I have gone to the doctor and have been told that my illness is viral (not antibiotic-treatable) and will probably go away in 10-14 days (!). Since I've had this cough since Sunday, I guess I'm 4 days into it. Yay.
Rigorous treatment with water, sleep, and Kairosoft games will continue on schedule.

I've never tried the Kairosoft games myself, but sleep, water, and good food has usually helped me. Best wishes!
Best wishes!
Well, my cats inform me that the fine art of bladder acupuncture is absolutely what I need when I am in bed sick (or sleeping). I hope that your cats (I think you have cats?) have less painful ways of caring and that you feel better soon.
I'm not currently feeling well myself (though you seem to have it worse, as I'm not coughing. Yet. *knocks on wood*) Hope you feel better really soon.
That will leave you recovered just in time for The Hobbit! :D
TW: Blood coughing
Seriously though, I know how much it sucks to have an illness you need to wait several weeks to abate. At least you don't have to have it coincide with your first fortnight back in college where your schedule leaves you at some eight hours a day, including twelve hours of labs a week (a biology lab is kind of the last place you want to start coughing up blood; it didn't come from my lungs mind, but you can see how that would look).
That may sound like some kind of guilting thing, but I sincerely mean that as in "I am happy for the idea that, as far as I know, your current ailment has less stresses on it than my most recent one did".
Here's hoping you're on the quick end of the bell curve.
Yuck! Hopefully you'll be feeling better _before_ the 10-14 days are up.
I hope the treatment is successful and your virus leaves soon!
