After everything, now I have the flu
 
OMG, I should of got a flu shot. Woke up Saturday, with the chills, achy, vomiting and my fever spiked to 103.

I can only keep water down. Took some cold and flu tabs, fever went down for awhile to 101.5 then back to 102.9 up and down.

Drinking lots of water, fever is only 99 now, so hopefully it won't go sky high again today.

I really feel like crap. Talked to the DR. on call, and he said it was the flu and could last a week, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrr

My entire body is one big ACHE then chills, this is the pits.

Hope everyone else is well.

So sorry
 
Nikko,
I am so sorry to hear this, I only hope it is a short virus. WHen you are run down it is tough to fight every bug going around.

Tamiflu would be great if your doc will order it. Keep sips of ginger ale and chicken soup when you feel up to it.

I hope tomorrw is better.
HUGS
Di

Nikko, how is your flu? Are you feeling any better?

I saw a map the other day on flu statistics and there isn't a state anywhere that isn't effected. Lemon tea and honey, honey. I swear by it.

And drink water. As much as you can stand.

Hi, and Thanks, I am feeling better, just weak and a bit of the runs left.

I have a lot to do around the house that I had to let go. I am going to try and get some done.

I did drink loads of water, then finally got some Alka Seltzer Flu med, and took that yesterday, helped a lot, before that I had Contac Cold and Flu that helped too with the fever and aches.

It seems my headaches are back from the dark again, unless it was the flu or just stress.

The Dr. on call told me also to get some Gatorade, which I didn't but he said it was better than water. I just couldn't handle anything with flavor in it at that point.

I also have issues I need to deal with too now, will do another post on those.

Thanks again for asking, Hugs, Nikko:hug:
