I flew to New York on Sunday for my NYMC interview on Monday and Temple Univ interview on Tuesday. However on Sunday night, I had some Chinese take-out with my student host and I ended up getting food poisoning. I was late for my NYMC interview on Monday because I felt very faint and sick when I woke up. I dragged myself anyways and got to the orientation at 8:30. I ended up throwing up in front of the other interviewees. I went back to my student host's apartment and rested, throwing up some more and having the runs. My interview was supposed to be at 11:15 but they rescheduled it to 1 pm. I still wasn't feeling well when I woke up at 12:30 but I still dragged myself to my 1 pm interview. My interview turned out REALLY REALLY BAD. I was soooo weak and faint I could barely speak and my enthusiasm definitely wasn't there. The interviewer knew I wasn't feeling well but I still think it affected my chances. My interview only lasted for 25 minutes and I went back to the apartment throwing up some more. By 4 pm I was feeling so weak and faint I had to call 911 since nobody was in the apt. I was taken to the ER where the wait took forever. The nurse told me I had a fever and my BP was 90/50 from losing too much fluids. Anyways, I ended up not going to Philadelphia for my Tues interview so I had to reschedule that.
What do you think I should do? Any advice? I know I'll write a letter explaining myself and saying things I wish I said.
