So, I think I am getting sick with a real bad with a sore throat. It feels like the beginning of strep throat which is weird because I can't ever recall being sick at this time of year. It's always march and October. So that terifies me that it is swine flu or something.
I guess @enknot was sick last week and he is not dead yet so let's hope it's all good and just a "summer cold"
The dilema. Because of my unbearable seasonal alergies, I have been on Claritin since the beginnng of may. It is the only thing that works for me. the level of allergies I have is worse than being sick. If I stop taking it I will become sicker than hell with allergies on top of being sick. But if I continue to take it, does it Lowers my immunity by blocking antihistamine production. Seriously, I just need to move away from allergy land.
After some research it seems like you can take claritan while sick so I guess that's good? The whole hing is really a myatey to me.
I have had the worst sore throat/cough thing since saturday. I think what caused it is cleaning the tortoise room after I put him outside on saturday. I didn't release that shop vac didn't have a filter on it and wihtin a few seconds the dried tortoise poop and hay combo turned into a nasty poop dust cloud with myself in the middle.
Since then I have been coughing. I probably have some rare tortoise poop lung disease, yuk!
At least I am not nauseus anymore. I still don't know if it was the flu or crohn's as now I kind of feel the crohn's is coming out of remission - a place I prefered it to be. I am just hoping it is instead the lingering affects of the flu. I can't wait for the next extremely stressful three days of work.
With all the fun of the weekend, I managed to lose about 6 pounds. So much for all that work at the gym. Hopefully, I am just super dehydrated and some of it will come back.
In my dream ast night, the guy, who had been trying to kill me in my dreams throughout the weekend drama, made up and he promised not to kill me. So thats good I guess.
Luckily, the playstation had this fun game to occupy my the few hours I was up.
I really like the playstation network, they have so many games you can demo or buy. I beats having to go to the store, escpecially when your car and yourself are both broken.
Either I have been food poisoned, I have the flu or it's some new level of crohns. I spent all day feeling so terribly sick with fever wretching, aching etc.. Our car battery broke, our basement window got flooded and our roof is leak.
I am sick. I decided to stay home and recoup a bit as I have personal day that expires on 12/05. I hope it just goes away but I doubt it. I some how made it through the October sickness this year. Usually, I get sick in October and March. I was kind of hoping that by missing october I was good till march.
We went to go see edge at ECMC today and he talks. Despite being pretty smashed up he was in good spirits and was able to extol the wonders of delaudid.
Here is a pic from ECMC 7th floor looking toward downtown. It is a view of the city you don't get to see much of.
I can't believe I got this little piece of sunburn. I never get
sunburned. If I ever get cancer there, this journal will be evidence it all started at WEMF 2008 @paul #45082
