I'm very ill right now with a bad fever. My throat hurts so much I can't eat much except soup. It hurts just to drink water, and it's not just the upper part of my throat, it goes down into my stomach and it hurts. My Ears hurt badly too, and they are ringing at times. My glands are very swollen. I'm here alone as Jessica and Gavyn went to Massachusetts to visit her family. I have a feeling I'm severly sick and might die. Haven't ate for a couple days. I'm dehydrated too because it hurts too much to drink water. |

youll be fine. no need for drama. i remember when i had pneumonia, i thought for sure i was dying. noone was helping me, and i was too weak to get up at all. my stomach hurt so bad, my throat hurt and was useless, i had no voice (i think this had given me long term issues) they thought i had appendicitis, let alone ignoring my issues with my lungs. i coughed up blooed and gross stuff, my fever was 104 degrees. i was dehydrated, hungry, but couldnt swallow. i shouldve gone to the hospital. but i lived. feeling your body deteriorate is frigthening. if its bad enough, then go to the hospital. but i highly doubt youre dying. try antibiotics! :-p |

What's that all about everyone having fever? I haven't been sick for a long, long time. But I woke up today with terrible pain, I feel like someone kicked my ass last night with a baseball bat...too much wine, no aspirin :P |

^ wine is bad for kids! :P and Jake, just calm down and find some distractions that would make you laugh more. Laughter is one heck of a cure! ;) |

The water thing is very important. You can live without food for awhile but try to sip some water very slowly if you have to. Sucking on some ice might be a good idea too if you can do that at least. If you really feel bad enough you can always go to the hospital, unless you have insurance and then you might get turned away if you go to the wrong place, according to Michael Moore. I have no insurance and I've never been turned away. It's better to ruin your credit than die, I say. Good luck. |

I think I saw something similar to this on an episode of Scrubs a few days ago. Try taking as many painkillers as possible in one dose and try to get a good night's rest. If you do wake up the next morning and still feel feverish, you should get into a warm bath with an electric hair-dryer. It acts like a jacuzzi and will help ease your aching muscles. It could also be a build up of pressure in your sinuses. This can be relieved by putting a loaded gun in your mouth and pulling the trigger. Most importantly try to get as much fresh air as possible. A good way to get a lot of oxygen into your lungs in a short space of time is to jump off a tall building with your mouth open. If the symptoms persist, consult someone who gives a flying fuck. The real problem is that you're feeling sorry for yourself because that poor little sod who sprang forth from your loins is getting more attention than you are at the moment. Get used to it you fucking idiot. fatty. |

Of course I'm not dead. I'm trying to make a doctor's appointment but they are filled for a few days or something. I woke up with a temp of 102.4 today, and I had to go snowplowing which made me feel worse. I still can't eat. When I'm not plowing, I'm sleeping like a cat... an hour here, then awake, two hours there, then awake. It's fucking up my schedule. I HOPE GAVYN DOES NOT GET THIS! I haven't held him since I've been sick, because this is a horrible flu, and I don't want him to get it, as he's only a month old. PS - Lisser, if someone is ill, why can't they make a post about it on QZ? |

Also if I had a doctor that turned me away when I called and said I needed to be seen, I'd switch doctors. If you've got the flu though all you need is as much fluids as you can handle, rest, and some tylenol or motrin for your fever, although sometimes I think keeping a slight fever is good for the illness, it's your body fighting it off. You can only treat the symptoms for the flu, a doctor can't do anything for it unless you become dehydrated. So, step away from the computer and rest. I hope you feel better soon. |

The doctor said If I'm not better by Wednesday, then she'd like me to go to the doctors. She said drink plenty of water and take Tylenol every six hours, which I've been doing. I went to sleep around 2:30 this afternoon and I actually managed to eat something, but I ended up puking. I think I'm probably not drinking enough either, because it hurts so much to even drink something. |
