Do/don't
Hi, everyone.
Long time no see.
Here is a sentence confusing me:
---How are you today?
---Oh, I haven't felt as ill as I do now for a very long time.
To my ear, the underline doesn't make sense, which means "I haven't felt as ill as I feel ill now for a very long time.". And I guess it should be "I haven't felt as ill as I don't now for a very long time.".
Could you teachers share your comments with me, please?
Thank you in advance.
