ok, here goes : weQ meQwI' He'wI' je vItuch. meQbe'bough He'wI' vItuch.
(I wish I understood the "even if" construction to improve the 2nd
sentence)

yoy burghwIj = I'm nauseous
DaH tebQo' Qey taghDu'wIj = I'm having an asthma attack (which you

jIwuQqu' jay' = I have a migrane.
the last idea is beyond my skills for now but I think I could belt out:
muHeghchoHmoHlaHpa' *clove tlhIchlIj qaHoHnIS.
