TT Feeling Sickly Thread

“Abby got the crud this morning, or last night, whichever. I awoke to hear birch saying "what's in your hair Abby? EWWW IT'S VOMIT!". To his credit he cleaned it all up, cleaned her up and let me sleep for just a bit longer. She's been complaining about a sore throat too...

How long does this stuff last?”

“Wow. I haven't had so much as a sniffle since I quit smoking nearly 3.5 years ago....

I guess not being a nicotine junkie anymore really helped, <GRIN>”

“YUCK!!! Vomit in the hair sux!!

Good man Birch! Mad props to you for cleaning up the puke!”

“I woke up with it Thursday morning and it started clearing up yesterday evening. However, I have produced my own weight in mucus so far this morning. Mostly as a product of sneezing. Man am I glad I'm not sick anymore :-D .”

“I'm starting to get some crud too. Every time I blow my nose it looks like wilted romaine lettuce coming out. Bleah.”

“Treebait, that discription leaves nothing to the imagination. Good job! (YUCK!)

Well, the kid seems to be fully recovered. She even says her throat doesn't hurt anymore. =) It's the Gummy-Vites.”

“I aim for accuracy.”

“This thread is halarious! While I don't wish illness on anyone, it sure is funny reading this stuff and squinching up my face when reading some of the details. It's like going to the doctor's office!!”

“sitting in the computer lab at school between classes.... dont know if i'm gonna make it to lab. might puke all over the teacher's desk.”

“Be sure to get a pic for the yearbook....”

“left lab for fear of puking all over the teacher.”

“You do not want to do that!”

“am home now”

“Good fer you, now go to sleep, it helps!”

“Jeepers, don't you all know about vitamin C and Garlic? I swear by them. First sign of itchy throat or just tiredness I take 2000 mg of vit c 2x a day (sometimes 3, depending if I've ignored my symptoms) Take garlic if you think you might have the flu, though vit C will help too. You probably all know this but garlic (even the odorless kind) is nature's antibiotic, helps improve circulation. And remember dairy products encourage mucus, so go light on dairy if you have a cold.
:)”

“ah! apuke free day today :) I am getting better I think. Last night I had the wonderfull expirience of tasting rice on its way back up... :)”

“Haven't any of you people heard of Airborne? This stuff is the greatest thing since sliced bread!

Go to WalGreens and buy some. It really works.”

“mtnmom, thanks for the tips, i actually didn't know any of that.

what's airborne?”

“Airborne is like Alka-Seltzer. You pop one of the tablets into a half a glass of water and drink. Looks and tastes a little like mountain dew.

Some school teacher invented it after getting sick at school too much. Contained in the pill are all kinds of anti-oxidents and other good stuff that is supposed to fight off bad germs.

One night last week, I felt a cold coming on. I took one of these before I went to bed and I woke up fine, no symptons.

You can take these even if you are knock down sick throwing up fever sore throat stuffy head blaugh blaugh blaugh blaugh.

Look for a white tube about the size of a stack of quarters at your local drugstore.

Be well!”

“mountain dew you say? hmm, sounds tempting, i might have to try it out! thanks.”

“No problem. This stuff is very popular right now so good luck finding it.”

“y'all need lots of hot tea...and TLC!!!”

“and some D batteries for BOB”

“omg...LOL.......HOI...I can't wait to meet you.....LOVE your sense of humor.....”

“div, come take care of me!

“LMAO...hahahaahahahaha....OMg....”

“Whoa,she need a BIG jump! LOL”

“Just go with an electric model!!!”

“Just plug one end into the electric outlet and the other end into ...........”

“:0”

“Vitamin C is only good for resisting infection. Once your sick excess vitamin C is useless. Once ill, your body gives priority to the immune system so it can make massive amounts of immunoglobulins. These are made of protein. Therefore, protein is the number one dietary supplement when ill.”

“protein shake?

oh that was just raunchy... i'm sorry...”

“LMAO.......omg...I have laughed soo much in here this afternoon.......LOL....”

“Would you like a prescription?”

“Did she just say... ?”

“i did.... indeed i did...”

“But did she read my mind or did someone else mention protein shake? I deleted a section regarding protein shakes b/c of the "possible" replies to that.”

“first mud, now protein shake - leave it to Scorchfire, LOL!

I'm sickly. I have bronchitis or darn close to it. And sore throat and slimy sneezes and coughs. :{”

“slimy sneezes LMAO... are they the color of mud?

bearmagnet, i didn't see anything that you wrote about protein shakes”

“i'm going back to the dr's today. starting to feel more nautious, plus dizzy and shakey now. 3 missed days of school and work, this sucks!”

“Good luck Scorchfire, feel better fast!”

“thanks :( my appt is at 9:30am.”

“Sounds like the flu...I guess you're not eating, right? That might explain the dizziness and the shakies...

Oh wait, you're gone already...sorry...”

“But is she going to be able to find her way in that condition?”

“they took bloodwork... bastards, i hate needles. i told them i might pass out on them, but i didn't, hurrah. they think i may have an overactive thyroid. while they're at it they're going to do a full report on my bloodwork, kidneys, liver enzymes, etc. i probably have some rare disease.”

“Bird flu!”

“that's called psittacosis! and nope, all my birds have been tested for it : )”

“Shakey, nautious, dizzy? Could be a rare disease or the DTs, perhaps?”
