So who here has been sick lately? |
|
No advice needed, but this is extremely annoying. Fever, sore throat, headache, chills, pain all over....I've been told it's a virus, but want to know if this is something that is going around in general.

I had a cold, which was just a pain in the ass, but yesterday I felt like HELL...exhausted, nearly falling asleep when sitting with therapy patients, kind of clammy, like a bag had been dropped over my head.
When I got home I discovered I had mixed up the Dayquil and the Nyquil. I wasn't so much sick as STONED.
Today I'm waaaay better.

I've been kind of showing signs since last Sunday, but didn't take my temp until today. Misery loves company--I need to identify with someone!

Been fighting shingles of the head/scalp for a week now and was told today by the eye doc today that it has spread to my eye :( No vision problems but he started me on an eye ointment and I go back to see him tomorrow. I went to see him today because while my forehead feels much better, my eyelid was getting swollen and the eye itself was burning.
Apparently, once you see a shingle spot on your nose, they say that it is pretty safe to say there is eye involvment. Which it woulda been nice to have been told that tidbit when I was initially diagnosed earlier in the week by another doc but what can you do.
