:cry :cry OMG I am SOOO So sick!! Sunday night, I suddenly started to lose my voice and got a fever out of nowhere and now my head is stopped up, my ears are stopped up, my nose is stopped up, my bones hurt, I had 102.6 fever last night, my throat feels like raw meat. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhh....

I did go to the doc today and asked her to give me an injection, which she did, so maybe it'll help. We'll see.

I guess it was just my turn. I haven't had even a cold for at least 2 years now. :D

Just wanted to let someone in on my misery... lol. :D

I'm so sorry you're sick Leatha! I've had the nasty bug for over 2 weeks. On antibiotics now, but it even affected my knees....feeling like I had an infection on top of the knee caps making it painful to move. You take care lady!

Oh, Leatha, that sounds like what Betty had a few weeks ago! No fun! Please take care of yourself! Do you have any hot teas? Add some honey and lemon, that's soothing to a sore throat. Hopefully, you won't have the nausea part. (((Hugs))) Sis!

Leatha - You sound like you have the flu, it sounds just like what I had. The doctor did a test on me, and it showed full blown flu. I ran 103 fever with mine and caughed, raw throat, chest hurt, nose ran and I thought I would freeze to death. He gave me some caugh Syrup (it worked good) and some meds to take that are made for the flu. You need to get a lot of rest, and drink lots of fluids. He told me to expect it to last 5-7 days, and it did last 7 days. It took a good week after to get back all my energy.

Hugs to you! I know you feel really lousy!

Yup. I think that's what it is. The doc just put Upper Respiratory Infection on my diagnosis, but this isn't your run of the mill URI. lol. This morning, just getting out of bed and trying to sit in my desk chair I became so faint I nearly passed smooth out and had lay right back down. No nausea thus far, thank goodness, but I am one sick puppy.. :D

Leatha I am so sorry. We have all had the crud. I still dont have much energy. One nice thing I have is a daughter who is a Doctor. I use her too much to call prescriptions in for us. I hope you feel much better really soon. Rest and take care of your self. I have found that Soup with chicken stock really helps...Janie :straight

Leatha - I only got sick to my stomach once, he told me to drink orange juice and it make me sick. It came right back up. Other than that, I was like you had to stay in bed, I was dizzy and weak. It hit me all of a sudden too.

(((leatha)))

Maybe that trip last week drained you - made you more venerable for this crud. ???

I sure hope that "bug" does not decide to crawl THIS way!

Actually, one of my co-workers had it and found it acceptable to pass it around. lol.

Thanks everyone. I stopped by Boston Market on my way home from the docs and got me some of their Tortilla Soup. I'll get over it, I just hate to be so miserable.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
