Day 18

Woke up at 2 a.m. with the mother of all nosebleeds. Dry tissue just made the gush even course. Finally, I used wet napkins to stanch the flood. Later, I woke up in the (real) morning with my entire left nostril filled with congealed/ing blood. Very nasty. Very scary.

But at least the fever's mostly gone. My temperature maintained a steady 37.5°C (99.5°F) throughout the day.
