You know it’s funny I realized something was up since the past week I’ve just been feeling generally lousy with my stomach.
I had like a week of heartburn for no apparent reason, and any amount of healthy eating just wasn’t clearing it up.
Then, it suddenly stopped this past Monday, to be replaced with general nausea and feeling REALLY crappy and tired.
I managed to get through work yesterday but then when I went to bed, well….I woke up around 4:30 am or so and had the worst sinus toothache pain!! It was so bad I had to take Tylenol severe cold and sinus. It was barely enough to help me get back to sleep and then when I woke up a bit later, BAM….sneeze, sneeze, sneeze. I have been sneezing all day and it’s starting to get annoying!*sigh* Aren’t I lucky?? I get hit with all this stomach junk and then suddenly a cold just storms on in out of nowhere. I can only suspect I might have caught it from mosquito bites since I had about 7 huge welts on my legs from those nasty things. (I HATE MOSQUITOES!!) I have a moderate allergic reaction so they get pretty big and itch like crazy. It’s all I can do not to scratch them as much as possible so they don’t get infected. 🙁
UNGH. I called out today but I really can’t take another day so hopefully I will feel well enough tomorrow.
To top it all of the medicine only upset my guts so I can’t take any more….I feel like pulling all of my teeth out!
YUCK.Fluids, fluids, drink plenty of fluids is what I’ve always been told. Helps cleanse your system. Unfortunately you are also being stressed by missing work which is understandable but doesn’t help you get over this bug. Not too many of us who can relax and be ill–we usually get ill because we’re not relaxed! So [hugs] here’s hoping you feel better. Think of that dragon you have on layaway or the new one you recently picked up! 😀
Have you seen a doctor to see if they can give you something for the alergic reaction you seem to be having??
Feel better soon. I’m off to a camping trip tomorrow morning and have to remember to pack the insect repelent

Well I always wait a few days to see if I feel better before seeing a doctor. And the bites have stopped bothering me, the swelling is nearly gone.
However, I’m still feeling bad. The runny nose and sneezing has stopped and my gut is just off. I think this might be a touch of flu.
I had no choice but to call out again today. 🙁
Tomorrow I’m probably going to force myself to go, even if I’m not feeling any better. It will be a Friday so it will be for one day and then I have the weekend to hopefully get this bug out of my system.
I’ve been drinking tons of Nestle PureLife water (lol) and eating small meals so I hope this helps. I was shocked I went to bed at like 9:30 last night and didn’t get out of bed until 10:30am! YIKES. I almost never sleep that long…
