So I got insanely ill last night, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, chills, body ache and it felt like someone had been using my kidneys as a punching bag as well as kicked me in the nads on a few occasions. It's been many many years since I had the flu and dont recall the kidney or nad pain,,, is that more a symptom of the h1n1 strain? I dunno. Feeling much better now after having set up a heat tent last night with a space heater but now I'm really dehydrated and it almost feels like I'm hung over at this point... Well, at least I'm keeping my fluids and foods down.
oh fritz, you poor bastard you! :sad: i sure hope you don't have the motherfucking pig flu! about 3 months ago my neighbor got the pig flu and, that poor, poor, poor, motherfucker is still in intensive care in the hospitial in a coma. it does look like he will never come out of it either and, even if he does come out of it, he has permentent brain damage! i and, everyone else who were in contact with him were quarantine in our homes for 2 weeks. fritz, please contact your doctor right away! i sure would hate for you to get sick big time!
I'm thinkin' it was just a 24 hour variety, feeling back to normal here aside from the ache associated with laying in bed for 36 hours It went through my two co-workers in order and I had thought I was going to avoid it (really good immune system as a rule) but I haven't been eating quite right as of late so I think thats what put the nail in. I'd hate to think of anyone having to cope with those symptoms for any more than 48 hours. It does really have me reconsidering my working in the Hospitality industry, this all started because some schmuck had made a reservation and didn't want to cancel just because their kid was sick, and proceeded to hurl all over the Tipi which my coworker had to clean, got violently ill the same day... What are they teaching people in Parenting courses these days?!
WOOF! WOOF! i so glad i your doing better and, i was nothing serious! arty: puking just once a day is small time shit. i worked almost 5 years, in a hospital emergence room, graveyard shift; almost always weekends and holidays. puking was a hourly thing there. sometimes it happen several times an hour. the blood, piss, shit and, body parts all over the place, tied with the puke also. IT WAS A MOTHERFUCKING WARZONE ON WEEKENDS... IT WAS BUTCHER PALACE! uke: working with the public can be one hell of a goddamn pain in the ass! a lot of the public are assholes! i have been where you are right now fritz. i learned from that shitty experence too. i never treat people who work in the costumer service like shit. i had too many of those assholes, shit all over me when i was in costumer sevice... no way could i treat others' that way.
I feel like shit too, man. The toilets been my best friend for awhile, the most I've kept down is a cup of herbal tea my boyfriend made me. He's kinda overprotective and he's trying to drag me off to a doctor... Good luck and hope ya get to feeling better! *hug*
Thanks for the worries BlackCat and Sugar. One thing I have found, making a tea with oregano and adding a bit of honey can really help settle a queasy stomach provided you dont make it super-strong or anything. Pour it off slowly as the essential oils of Oregano are a natural Antibiotic so could possibly be helpful fighting off your bug. The Bug weakened my system enough to where I started feeling like I got H. Pylori again, really really nasty and horridly painful once established, not letting it get anywhere near that point, knocking it right back the fuck out of my system with Colloidal Slver.
Update- Someone kill me now? Please? Jk, I think... I feel like total shit right now, though. Uuuurghh
