The Lurker Thread

[Sara Love]

Good evening everyone

Oh no Lori, keep as far away from him as possible. This has been the most bizarre illness I've ever had. It keeps rotating between aches, sinus weirdness, sore throat and feeling better. I'm starting to feel like I'm in my own Groundhog Day h e double hockey sticks. Every time I think I'm turning the corner I wake up with it all over again. I'm spent.

Psst... You know your supposed to put the pizza in your mouth and not on top of your stomach right? Couldn't resist. I may be sick but I've still got my twisted sense of humor.

Don't blame you one bit, lots of nasty stuff going around

Cheryl went home after lunch with a sore throat. She has a doctor appt. (yearly with her general dr.) on Friday, so hopefully if it's the nasty bug that going around, at least she already has an appt.

He said he had to go to an UrgiCare type place. His normal doctor didn't have a single appt. for 5 days out.
They said they're just swamped with sick people.

Bless your heart! You might need a second Zpak. You don't want to not kill it all and let it get stronger/resistant to the Zpak.
According to articles I've read, there are several things that are down to only a few antibiotics that will still work.

I know ::hands behind my back, looks down and kicks the ground with my foot:: I've been stubborn.

I'm allergic to the good antibiotics too.

Who me?? Oh hey..look over there..Angel's squirrels are loose again.

Probably...but, being out and about helps build immunity...supposedly.

...or walking pneumonia.

You poor thing! Did the program where they have it ready for you not work out?

No it works great...when I remember to use it. ...lately my schedule has been so hectic and crazy that it's hard to pick a time for pick up and then sometimes I just plain forget until it's too late.

Hi everyone

Looks like I will be working 8 hour days for awhile woohooooooo

Woohoo! That's awesome...maybe you'll actually be able to feel like a regular human again for a while!

Hey @Sara Love just so you don't feel alone, one of our road salesmen has been sick like you've been.
Worst sore throat he's ever had he said.
He finally went to the doctor. They gave him a steroid shot, Zpak, and cough medicine with codeine.
He said he'd coughed so much that it hurt the entire circumference of his waist.
He still sounded horrible, but he said, "no, THIS is good".

Yep, it's going on down here too...the boss texted me this morning to say she wasn't coming in because she thinks she has strep and didn't want to make any of us sick...she sounded horrible when I talked to her on the phone later.

...might better just....go....

Hey now...leave my squirrels out of it...they're innocent I tell ya!

Hi Angel.
Hopefully you (your co-workers) won't catch it!
It does sound like a nasty one.



Okay...I'm off to go soak.
If I don't make it back, sweet dreams all.
If I do, then I'll c u later.

Yeah and they're supposed to leave Friday to go to TN to watch their son's opening day baseball game...they never miss one and I just hope this doesn't keep her from it.

Good night and sweet dreams if you don't make it back.

Shhhh...hush your mouth, er fingers, whatever...I'm trying not to think of that! I do NOT have time to be sick!!!

Agreed Angel, stay healthy!

Really?

Well, yes. I'm thinking that's right.

http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20140804-sad-truth-of-uncontacted-tribes
...scroll down to the paragraph "Viral event".
Now, *you* aren't exactly living like people in isolated tribes, and you've had many viruses throughout your lifetime, however, there is a bit of truth to it.

I'll ask my doctor next time I go...if I can remember, cuz now I'm curious if it's more advantageous (or not), to live like a hermit.

 

[LoriP1702]

...I know Dale, ask Glam. I bet she'll know.

 

[LoriP1702]

Too bad Stormy's not posting...she'd know for sure!!
