Guest guest Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 I admit it, I overdid it this weekend. It was just a little bit too much and I'm so tired I can't even see straight. I saw my primary yesterday and she was appalled when I described my weekend. She sent me home to rest and not much else. Everything is fine though my reflux is acting up and I'm running a very very low grade fever. (under 100). I talked to my primary again just now, she says the fatigue and a little dehydration are probably the culprit so I'll push fluids tonight and check in with her again tomorrow. Next time I plan a trip, I will plan it with some actual downtime. As much fun as it was it was just a bit too much.

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Why am I NOT surprised by this tale Ms MB....I trust you're being a good patient & following Dr's Orders...I also trust you've got a few special yummies to assist with your fatigue! You are SO right about planning in 'Down Time' .....within the trip itself, while at your destination, on the home journey AND in the weewk following the return home. Gone are the days when we can bundle it all together & still expect to be 'functional' Love, in Oz>> I admit it, I overdid it this weekend.
