Thanks, and I’m moving this over to MPSIMS.

I have cellulitis, and it occasionally flares up. It has flared up SPECTACULARLY this weekend. I’m going to get to the doctor as soon as she opens on Monday or Tuesday, and beg an antibiotic from her, plus a spare in case it flares AGAIN.

It’s happened before, I know how to treat it, but it’s no fun. And no, I don’t want to go to the hospital, they just poke holes in me there, and make me cranky.

I can’t keep it down, but thanks. Right now I’m living on chicken broth and lime slushes, which I CAN keep down. And I think I’m gonna go to bed for the night. Thanks all.

Yuck. Poor **Lynn**! I’m sure you know this, but cool water on the elbow/knee creases, wrists and forehead sometimes helps to bring down a fever. Plus, it feels nice when you’re sick. Get better soon!

_gives Lynn a box of sugar free chocolates(not the nasty tasting crap, but the really nice expensive stuff that tastes good), a gallon of spring water, a shipment of good books, and a temporary amnesty so no trolls or bizarre spam posters cause her distress in her forum_

Cellulitus bites in a big way. Take good care of yourself.

Just sending a few cool breezes your way. Lynn, you probably patrol the toughest forum on this board, and you do a terrific job. Take care, and if there’s anything I can do, please let me know. I owe you one, and I’m about to owe you two.
