Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Sorry to hear that your throat still hurts. Thats gotta suck! I still think you have a virus---like I said, my daughter had an awful sore throat for several days. You crack me up with your naughty little butterscotch schapps. REally, I always get a kick out of reading your posts. Hope you are on your way to wellness soon!

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Hi Kathy, The shnapps in my sugar free hot cocoa keeps me sleeping and rest is what I need right now. I am also 100% sure it is a viral thing and I am not very happy with my Dr's right now, they are all jerks! They act like it is not a big deal but this is the worse sore throat I can ever recall and they would not even give me some nice elixir with a mild narcotic in it or anything, jerks! so back to my shnapps I guess. ha ha. I am back at work all weekend, I am slightly better but really wish I could stay home. It sucks to get this sick cause you just cannot take too much time off of work. People don't understand. I mean I think if I had a normal immune system I would be better by now i am sure it is the immune system keeping me down. It sucks because no matter how far I ever seem to come there always seems to be something that shows me I am still not quite normal. maybe never will be. I get at least 2 bad sore throat type things a year, my husband never seems to stay home from work. it just sucks thanks for thinking of me though! hugs In , " mikat828 " <mikat828@y...> wrote: > > > Sorry to hear that your throat still hurts.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Hi ! I sure hope you feel better soon. If you feel sick at work tomorrow, I'd go home if you can. I know what you mean about the immune system, when I'm sick with a cold, it lingers. I would always get colds after flying especially. This year I'm at home a lot so I haven't had as many colds.

This is the worst sore throat i have had in my life I kid you not, and what ticks me off is that several nurses NURSES OF ALL PEOPLE all came to work with it. So they all talk on the front desk phone and use my computer while I am in the bathroom or at break and then if I forget to wipe it all down which apparently did I get it. I think from working out (over doing it) last week with my 3 hour a day brutal work outs I set myself up to catch it too. Exercise is great and it makes me feel good but it can def lower your immunity when exposed to bugs. So I have been just suffereing through this week, doing NOTHING, it sucks. I am scheduled to work this weekend and really after being home all week am sucking it up and going in and I hope it does not make me worse. I have been doing drastic stuff too, I ate raw garlic, tons of it last night to the point of really stinking the whole house up hee hee, I ate the cloves whole and chewed them with fetta cheese. Nasty. I have been drinking my noni juice, orange juice, popsickles, water and some naughty little butterscothch scnhapps to help me with sleep, understand it is not like I am being an alcoholic or something, I just put a shot in a hot drink and it helps me sleep nicely which is really what I need. Anyhow I am also taking the oregacin capsules which are for respiratory illness along with the drops, so far I am just barely better. I am going to see my Dr again today since the antibiotics did NOTHING, and that Z pack is strong so I am sure it has to be viral, which means I will probably be sick another few days or so.Waaaa it sucks. But I have enjoyed the olympics everynight, so that has been fun.I also was worried about possibly having been bit by a hobo spider. Do any of you live in the pacific northwest? Well these things are rampant out here, they are very poisonous, and about a month ago I had this spot on my foot that hurt bad however, hobos usually will cause a big welt and then open ooozing sore and bad cellulitis. I am curious if I somehow got a dry bite or if my immune system is strong enough that it did not affect the foot, since my foot looks fine.Anyhow we bought traps and low and behold we caught a few of them. They are freaky and scary so now I walk around with shoes on all the time hee hee.Anyhow hopefull this illness has nothing to do with any spider bites.love ya allIn , "mikat828" wrote:> > carrie> Hope you feel better soon.

Guest guest Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 Gosh, me too girlie! I hope you are doing better by now! Spiders are icky, icky! I hate the thought of them crawling on me in bed, and I know that has happened in the past! (shivering at the thought! Blah!) I don't think we have that spider you are talking about here in the Nevada desert. We just have those icky things like Black Widows (lots in my back yard!) and scorpions (we've caught two in our house!) Ewwww! Patty > Thanks girlies for your thoughts.
