Fatigue
Hhnnnfff.
Four days in a heavy fatigue, cellular ache, bleary headed, and now the weight has lifted. Not like I can afford another day off, but I was called off work, and I'm not going to complain. A day feeling alright to clean up from a week unable to do more than minimally feed myself. Still not sure how I got through work on Thursday, it didn't really feel safe.
Not dead yet. I got better.

Glad you are feeling better. Some days we just have to thank who/what ever we thank that we got through the day and everyone was pink and breathing.
I don't know how one can actually tell such a thing as 'cellular ache'.
"Oh... my mitochondria are feeling feverish today."
Cellular ache: when you ache beyond, deeper than, mere muscle strands, or eyelash follicles, or nail lamenations, or breath inhalations/exhalations, or every nano-second of thought - to infinity and beyond, on the atomic level, the nuclear level of cell structure. It's when you are saturated with achiness so thoroughly that it drips off you, leaving a trail of discomfort in you slip stream so depressive that you almost wish no to wake up again. Almost, but not quite.
At least, that's how it feels to me when I say I ache down to the individual cells of my body.
Phil,
All pain is, ultimately, cellular. Nerve cells irritated by interstitial fluids, chemical spillage from damaged cells, messages from cells attacked by viruses. And what Crow says.
