In response to "me too - lets cuddle in our sick beds together." by Epiphany

I feel worse today than all week. I am guessing I might have a bacterial infection.

Posted by Redmond (aka Redmond) May 7 '09, 06:59

So, I am going to talk to the doctor today and see if she wants me on antibiotics just in case.

My fever keeps bouncing around from 99.5-102.5

I feel absolutely awful at night. It's the worst!!

Okay here is how bad I feel. The thought of nestling up against your bosom does nothing for me now.

The virus/bacteria has made me A sexual!!!

- I don't feel sick, but I've already infected Africa with swine flu. -- nm - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:02 25

  - i don't think anyone thinks you have swine flu for a second, i think what everyone is commenting on is that if anyone else said they lied about flu - Andie May 7, 07:03 21
    - andie is correct -- nm - zork May 7, 07:04 17
      - Then everyone is mistaken about what I would say. I think those screening methods are useless and potentially dangerous. - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:05 16
        
        true but I don't think you'd want people with symptoms but not properly tested travelling to areas with poor disease control abilities -- nm - zork May 7, 07:08 15
        
        You know what I don't have? Coughing. I didn't spread anything to anyone. -- nm - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:09 14
        
        I honestly don't know the answer to this but can breathing spread flu (without coughing)? -- nm - zork May 7, 07:10 13
        
        OK, I'm going to use small words. I don't have the flu. Flu is a respiratory infection. I don't have a respiratory infection. - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:11 12

        Um...neither "respiratory" nor "infection" are small words. nm - Jim May 7, 07:15

        I didn't mean that question in an accusatory way. and I'm sure that any sore throat and elevated temp. are because of new pollens to you and other ... - zork May 7, 07:14 8
        
        who knows? I had just spent 20 hours on a plane and was in a crowded airport with no AC. other than - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:16 7
        
        you said you had 3 symptoms, which is a little more than what you are saying now. nm -- nm - groiny May 7, 07:20 1
        
        headache, sore throat, possible fever (but I did not have a thermometer handy). three. - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:22
        
        i know - zork May 7, 07:19 1
        
        well, it started in Amsterdam so it's not anything exotic. -- nm - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:21
        
        What malaria pill are you using. I remember a side effect of one is a small fever -- nm - Redmond May 7, 07:19 2
        
        Malarone. I didn't think it was giving me any side effects, but maybe so. - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:20 1
        
        good point Redmoink and would loosi please elaborate on that last line -- nm - zork May 7, 07:21
    - Yeah I would, actually. I dont' think those are very good measures at all. -- nm - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:04 2
      - hasn't africa managed to stay swine-flu-free thus far? -- nm - Andie May 7, 07:05 1
        
        I doubt it. They have very limited lab resources. -- nm - hutsilu in Rwanda May 7, 07:06
