Exam in 3 hours and I am vomiting and struggling to stay awake. What can I do?
A year back I went to Cuba, it was my first time out of Canada and my last. Two days into the vacation I wake up sweating with a fever. I was in an out of the bathroom over and over again and vomiting. Joints hurt, teeth hurt, no appetite, I hyperventilate if I'm not outside because I feel like im suffocating.... Lost 15 pounds within a month of coming back.
After seeing numerous doctors and doing numerous tests, then being sent to other specialists, the final diagnoses was 'unknown virus'... basically I was told that I would just have to live with these phases of feeling like shit here and there.
Luckily this has never interfered with my life to much, but of course I had to have one of these phases start during the weekend that just past. I was really hoping it'd pass by today but I woke up this morning sweating, and have been vomiting since noon every time I try eating something. So it's been a good 14-16 hours since I've actually got something down.
I manged to get to the doctor earlier today and he wrote me a doctors note (hes well aware of what im going through) but I'm not sure what I should do. I've never had to do something like this in university. I have an accounting exam at 7 and I'm not even sure if I'm going to be able to stay awake that long, every time I sit down I start passing out and that's with two red bulls in me. Even if I do manage to make it in there I'm not going to even be functioning properly and don't see how I can sit through a 3 hour exam of this nature.
Is there anything I can do? Are notes accepted for this sort of thing? The only thing I know of when it comes to stuff like this are MSAFs but those don't apply to exams right?
Should I not risk it and just drink another red bull or two and try making it through?
I am panicking so much right now which is not helping my cause.
BTW im in commerce if that changes anything, in the meantime im going to try and get as much sleep as I can
