Trying to get the feeling again…

I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends

you give me fever May 14, 2008

Filed under: General — Bobbie @ 11:44 am

I have had a fever since Monday.  I thought I didn’t feel well Monday so when I got home, finally, I took my temperature.  It was 101.  Yesterday I went into student teaching and had to leave at noon.  I was miserable and freezing to death.  Fever 103.  I stayed home today.  Today after Tylenol  it’s 100.  I can’t remember the last time I had a fever and it sucks.  I took a tepid shower.  I feel like crap.  I am popping the Tylenol every 6 hours.  I hope my liver forgives me.  I have a doctor’s appointment on Friday so if I am not better by then, he can help me out.  I am drinking Gatorade to stay hydrated.  My biggest worry is not eating enough and getting light headed.   I seriously wanted to call my mom and have her come over and take care of me.  What can she do?  I don’t know.  But I feel so horrible.  BF is trying.  He has waited on my hand and foot and sat outside the shower.  I just wanted to whine.  Now I will go back to bed.  BLAH!

    You are allowed to whine. Try Motrin or Ibuprofen for your fever. Works much better for adults than tylenol and much easier on the liver. Take 800mg every 6 to 8 hours. Don’t worry about food, just liquids.
    Get better soon :)

    Good advice from Islandrgrl - nice to have a medical professional as a friend!
    You need some chicken soup when you start to feel ready to eat. Maybe your BF could make it - just buy one of those rotisserie chickens, strip off the meat, cut up some carrots, onion, celery and put it all together in a good chicken broth - there’s lots of really nice ones on the market these days. It’ll be semi-homemade and boost you.
    Take Care of yourself, dear lady.

    I am looking very menacing right now and have blown up like a puffer fish (not that far fetched - honestly) to show you just how scary I can be.
