Update:
Still sick. But thankfully no longer sick in a 'cannot study' way, just sick in a 'sometimes I feel like a giant hand is squeezing my chest and I am not allowed chocolate/alcohol/coffee/ANYTHING NICE' way.
I actually felt like writing*, today! For the first time in weeks. Instead I...typed up lecture notes. And studied. And now I am ONE TOPIC (bacterial pneumonia) away from letting myself watch the second half of North & South, which is delicious costume drama fare, full of angst and brooding looks and class warfare and dinner parties and head wounds. EXCELLENT. Just what I needed.
*Best you don't ask WHAT I felt like writing. You'd lose any respect you ever had for my creative skills.
