In another thread I mentioned that I was coughing so hard that I’d actually had to throw up. Twice.
Still, I thought I was getting better. But I was wondering why my face looked so red in the bathroom mirror so I finally got out the thermometer. It’s 100.4 degrees. I can’t remember the last time I had a temperature as an adult.
And after two days at home, I’m already going stir-crazy. I called my Dad today and asked him to take me down to the beach for just a little bit because I couldn’t stand being cooped up any longer. He probably saved me from getting a huge bump on my head from pounding it against a wall. But now I’ll have to stay home tomorrow at least. :mad:
So I have a deep, hacking cough that I have to go into the bathroom for when I feel a fit coming on because it makes me leak. And I have sore ribs from the coughing, phlegm in my esophogus and maybe my lungs that I can hear when I’m laying in bed. And I have an upset tummy. And I have a temperature.
Meh. You ain’t done cabin fever until you’ve agonized over the fact that Judge Mathis and People’s Court are on at the same time and you can’t possibly watch both simultaneously. And of all cable TV, these are your best choices.
That was me for 4 days last week.
The worst part was the vomit-cough. And the dementia. Followed closely by the sore throat.
Aww, I feel for you. We (me and the kiddos, 7 and 8) spent our whole spring break laying on the couch and watching each other cough, sneeze, sweat, and occasionally barf. It started Friday night.
DH did not get sick, and he didn’t take good care of us while we were. Not fair.
We went to the beach too, and to some playgrounds, just because we were sick to death of looking at each other and had to get out of the house. We didn’t feel good enough to do anything once we got to those places, though.
Wishing you well and all, however one nitpick. Yes, you have a temperature. So do I . So does everyone. What you have is an elevated temperature, aka a fever. Carry on. When you don’t have your health…
Ca3799–Sorry that your Spring Vacation was ruined. And you ought to tell your husband to shape up and be of more help. Or at least have the decency to get sick too.
