SICK! - Page 9

I spent the night in the hospital's sleep lab/clinic last night. According to the tech I don't get enough REM sleep, noises wake me up, and it takes me forever to fall asleep, and get back to sleep if I wake up.

Hello white noise machine and Ambien?

woke up today with a sore throat and major head/chest congestion...hopefully I can get to the doctor today or tomorrow, because I don't have time to be sick...24 days until graduation

I'm taking Ambien CR tonight. I haven't been this excited about sleeping, ever.

And now I'm running a fever. The lack of any other symptoms except for my RIDICULOUSLY sore throat means its probably strep. Too bad the campus health center is only good for free Mucinex. Looks like I'll be going to urgent care when I go home on Friday.

I hate day care, or any area where children converge! I take my son to mothers day out so I can have some time to myslef to get things done or whatever and he gets sick, brings it to me and both of us are stuck at home feeling like crap! So now I have to take care of a sick baby, who doesn't realize he's sick and still wants to play... And try to get my own shit together while hopped up on dayquil and/or tylenol cold:nightime....

I think I have a freaking fever too! UGH!!

BUMP...for being home with strep!

HALF of my throat is noticeably swollen - it's bigger than my thyroid, and hurts.

OMG my strep is on the way out but I think I'm getting an ear infection. My ear is aching... OMG, now I know why babies fuss and cry....I want to fuss and cry!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sick, but it's not swine flu!! Haha! My voice sounded kind of funny on Sunday but I had been cheering a ton for powderpuff. Now my throat hurts. My eyeballs and lymph nodes hurt. I have formal tomorrow and Norway Day the day after, so I really don't wanna be sick right now!

I was going to ask if you went to Norway Day, my sister performed. I'll catch up with you on Facebook.

I started allergy shots and got my Ambien prescription refilled, YAY! The burning and peeling on my face as a result of antibiotics is almost gone too.

I would swear I had mono, but I don't have any of the other symptoms. I have been so tired that I sleep for ten hours every night and still need a nap. This has been going for a week and my head ache has been coming and going for two weeks. I don't have time to be sick any more.

I hate the fluxuating weather. I've been so sick. I need to go take a nap.

I've sneezed about a million times today...ugh! Does DayQuil really have some stimulant in it? My bf said it did and thought it was bad but...I feel icky!

I thought I had sinuses that were draining and driving me nuts. I cannot hardly hear, went to the ER yesterday, and damn, I have bronchitis (?). It fooled me this time, usually I get a bad fever with it, but I haven't had one. I had to say, it's better than it usually is, so I caught it just in time, Thank the Lord for that! I can deal with the antibiotics, but the ER dr wasn't happy with my HBP.

I caught a cold that is going around...and one of its affects right now is that I have NO voice! I tutor elementary students and had to call in sick to work this morning because I can't even speak! I WANT MY VOICE BACK!!!
