: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.

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

Tussionex Suspension is the one my Doctor gave me, and it worked great!

I hope you are back to normal come Monday, Leatha. It sounds like you have been totally miserable. Hope the switch in medications goes well, too.

Thanks Rebecca! Thanks everyone for putting up with my sniveling. This has been an awful week. I haven't been so sick in a long time. Today, I can breathe easy, my fever seems to have disappeared, there are some lingering sorta transient aches in my ears, so I suspect the sinuses are not totally clear, but I'm on my way to recovery. It's funny how all things hit at once.

I had spent last week in St Louis with a co-worker who I know had been sick for the week before AND the week we were there. I'm sure she passed it along to me and goodness knows how many clients. YIKES. I flew home on Friday, went out Saturday night, had company Sunday evening and by bedtime Sunday night I was burning up with fever and had lost my voice all within an hour. Unfortunately, I had an appointment already made for the next day to work on this med change, so I couldn't hardly postpone it. So here I am with this great big ball of wax to hopefully get all straightened out. This is how I work, no pressure unless I can get ALL the pressure at one time, that way I can just be superwoman for short periods only.lol.

Thanks for all your support and suggestions. Special thanks to Marie for pming me home remedies which helped me on my worst night.

So, have you gotten on the scale lately???

(everything has its advantages... even THIS)

How true How true Paula

Being sick has is bonuses

Cold-eze worked well for me Leatha also the liquid Tylenol for cold & flu

Yes Paula. I'm still sitting on 181.2. I need exercise!

Yea, the problem, Michelle is the coumadin. I really have to be careful adding or taking away from the meds I take on a routine basis. It sucks, especially if you become ill enough to need some relief.

Leatha, so glad the worst is over. Hope you have a relaxing weekend.

Leatha,

I am sorry you have been sick all week. I have had a house full of sick ones this week. Husband, 2 sons and pray that I dont catch it myself! I hope you feel better soon.

Hugs,
