The easiest thing to do if you are not feeling great is to just dose once a day and leave it at that.
The nitrite clearing is a good sign. There is no real "critical" stage of a cycle. Just keep dosing and let the bacteria take care of the rest. ;-) This is just another example of why fishless cycling is so much better than fish-in. Doing a fish-in, you'd be stuck NEEDING to do the water changes. You chose a fishless, and worst case scenario, you don't dose and the bacteria just hang out for a few days while you get back on your feet. Honestly, its nothing to stress over. The bacs will be fine without ammonia for a little if you need to rest up. Another option is to just add a pinch of fish food and it will slowly break down and add ammonia while you are unable to dose it.
I hope you feel better soon. If you find that you did go a few rounds with Mike Tyson, make sure both ears are intact. ;-)
