Tired

Don't you get the feeling some times that you just can never feel better. I started off my swim season healthy and feeling good. Then a few weeks into the season I got a cold. My coaches said don't worry about it just take a day off and rest. Well the cold lasted a week, but I still swam. Five days later I had a tinge in my throat, the next day i was coughing up a lung. I go to the doctor, and I have bronchitis. I missed three days of practice, but felt sick for a week and a half. Finally I got better and was feeling more normal. When in practice all of a sudden my back starts to hurt. I know this feeling, because for the past three years I have had back problems. All I can think is just when I'm getting better of course it starts to hurt. My back hurts when I sleep, in class, in practice, and pretty much all the time. I went to the trainer then for three solid weeks straight for two hours every day to get my back feeling better. I still practiced the whole time, but felt completely awful. This past week I had my fourth week of doing physical therapy stuff, when finally my back starts to feel better. Friday was my last appointment with the trainer, so I thought I would finally just be able to be healthy and swim. Until I woke up this morning with a throbbing pain in my left ear. Turns out I now have and ear infection and might be out of the water for a few days. Does anyone else every feel like right when they get better or things are normal again something else happens to you. All I want to do is be healthy, but I know I'm not as my ear is actually bleeding a little bit. I'm not trying to complain, but just wonder if anyone else seems to always be kicked back down after they stood up like I am right now.
