Punctuation?
Hi, everyone.
Could you tell me whether there should be a comma before and after "but now"?
(And also, is this sentence possible, I mean, in terms of tense usage?)
I haven't been feeling well for two days, but now, I think I am getting better.
I haven't been feeling well for two days, but now I think I getting better.
Thanks.

It's like this: silak12 I haven't been feeling well for two days , but now I think I 'm getting better. It's two independent clauses connected by a conjunction ( but ), so we use a comma at the end of the first clause and before the conjunction. There is no reason to add another comma after 'now'.

- The tenses are fine.
- Present perfect continuous and present continuous usually go together without any problems.
