SICK!

[33girl]

I am really tired of the dry tickly cough. If I could just hock up a couple giant loogies I would feel a ton better.

Flu. 102. head too hot. bones ache. waaaaaaa. this sucks.

^^^Thanks for bumping this thread NinjaPoodle...

I went to my doctor yesterday, and he said I have the flu...104 temp, and my head and body are hurting like something awful. It hit me in full this morning, I guess. I feel like I'm dying .

..But the drugs he has me on makes me feel like Charlie Sheen looks
here

You're not dying. I thought I was too.

So far I've topped out at 104. Right now I feel much better as I'm

• on day 4
• My temp dropped to 99.8.

Do what your Dr. tells you and drink plenty of fluids. And have someone check in on you, often.

Which Charlie Sheen? LOL!

Oh shoot me now. Not the flu, but so very very ill.

My boss apparently has the nasty norovirus that's floating around, and despite fully knowing he's contagious even after feeling better, he still wants to come in to work tomorrow! STAY AWAY FROM MEEEEEEEE

Then he's an ass. It is irresponsible to knowingly expose others when you know you are contagious.

Woohoo, I'm glad your temp dropped and that you're getting better.

Yep, I haven't eaten anything except soup, and I've been drinking a lot of orange juice.

Yep, I'm getting plenty of tlc and pampering . Maybe I need to get sick more often.

Hmm, well the first two pics at the top are the cute Charlie Sheens.

So, I would say I feel like the bottom two Charlie Sheens look.

My coworker told him that. It's even better given that it's a cube farm and within the 6 cubes surrounding him are 3 parents of little kids, 1 pregnant woman, and 1 parent of an autistic kid. It's completely irresponsible and he does it every single time he's sick

I've had random coughing attacks for about a month now. Usually every couple days. I don't understand.

You may want to get checked for GERD. I had a terrible cough unrelated to anything. Doctors kept piling on allergy meds and inhalers. One genius pulmnologist put me on Nexium and it solved everything. I never had any heartburn or the other usual symptoms. Just a cough I couldn't shake.

I suppose it's not quite a sickness, but a rash. I have pityriasis rosea and it is beyond annoying! It isn't contagious, but it is pretty ugly. Plus I am in the minority that gets itchy. Every time I think it is going away, like fading, it spreads further.

^^I have had that and before I had a diagnosis it was horrendous because I thought I had some eczema or something and I wasn't living at home at the time and was dealing with it by myself. It came back the next year, but thankfully not since then.

I'm currently dealing with a sinus infection and headache of epic proportions.
