I remember a time when I had a nasty flu. I was so sick I couldn't even get out of bed. My throat was so sore that it was killing me. I was constantly coughing and it hurt every time I did that. I had a runny nose and had to blow it every other minute. I also felt dizzy because I had a fever. Plus, my body was aching all over. I was feeling so miserable. Naturally, I had no choice but to go see the doctor. The doctor prescribed some medication for me. I was told to get as much rest as I could. It was one of the worst flus I dad in years. It took me a full week to recover.
지독한 독감에 걸렸을 때가 기억납니다. 너무 아파서 침대에서 일어날 수도 없을 정도였습니다. 목이 아파서 죽을 것 같았습니다. 계속 기침을 하는데 기침할 때마다 너무 아팠습니다. 게다가 콧물이 나와서 코도 계속 풀어야 했습니다. 그리고 열이 나서 어지럽기도 했습니다. 또한 몸살이 있어서 온몸이 아프기도 했습니다. 몸이 너무 안 좋아서 결국은 병원에 갈 수 밖에 없었습니다. 의사선생님께서는 약을 처방해 주시고 최대한 휴식을 취하라고 말씀하셨습니다. 최근 몇 년간 걸렸던 독감 중에 가장 심한 독감이었습니다. 완쾌하는 데 꼬박 일주일이 걸렸습니다.
