Bloody tonisilitis

I get up early one morning on my fatigue break and I get run down enough to get bloody tonisilitis again. Or according to my TCM doctor, I have a Blood deficiency. Great. Anyway I'm really upset. I have been working hard at getting myself well and motivating myself with running and I get so sick. It's really bad this time, my right side gums and neck is so painful. Ugh. I don't even have any spare time to get acupuncture so I don't know what I'm gonna do. Feeling quite glum.
