【No. 1066】Cold or Food Poisoning

Nov 18, 2017 15:14
Yesterday I became sick.

Since I had a sore throat and a headache, I thought that I caught a cold.

Therefore, I went home early, ate dinner, and went to bed.

However, I woke up in the middle of the night due to a severe headache and a feeling of nausea, then I vomited all food I ate for dinner.

It was very painful because I woke up repeatedly with the headache and the nausea.

After I slept for about 18 hours, these symptoms were finally lessened somewhat.

However, my condition is still bad -- in such a day, I will post a simple diary like this.
風邪?食中毒?

私は昨日、体調を崩しました。

喉と頭が痛かったので、風邪だと思い、早めに家に帰って寝ることにしました。

しかし、夜中に目が覚め、激しい頭痛と吐気に襲われ、夕飯に食べたものを全て吐き出してしまいました。

何度も頭痛と吐気で目が覚め、辛かったです。

結局、18時間くらい寝て、ようやく症状が和らぎました。

ただ、まだ頭が痛いので、今日の投稿はこのような簡単な日記にします。

    "a feeling of nausea" is fine, but not necessary. You can just say "I woke up in the middle of the night due to a severe headache and nausea." :)

  • It was very painful because I woke up repeatedly with the headache and the nausea.
  • It was very painful because I woke up repeatedly with the headache and the nausea.

    There's nothing wrong with the second "the" from a grammatical standpoint, but it's redundant.

  • After I slept for about 18 hours, these symptoms finally subsided somewhat.
