Shamelessly Searching for Sympathy...

I have been sick and alone since Christmas Eve. I even called in sick to work today because my stomach is still killing me. I am bored, nauseated, and lonely. How about some attention, 'Dopers?

Sorry to hear that you are not feeling will. Sometimes a video will make me feel better.

Try Slowly, I turned. This is my favorite version.

Awwww. Here, have some Jewish penicillin.

Hope you feel better soon!

Aww sweetie, I hope you feel better soon!

Oh, Shayna, I wish I had some of that right now! Thanks to all of you!

Sending some virtual TLC your way and wishing you a fast recovery.:slight_smile:

Thanks, Quasi. I thought at first that my glass of Christmas Eve wine didn’t agree with me, but apparently this is something else. I just had some food and I’m waiting to see if it will stay where it belongs this time!

Don’t let yourself get dehydrated, okay?

We’re seeing a lot of stomach flu in our ER. Not saying that’s what’s going on with you, but hydration is important.

If you cannot keep anything down, get thee to thine ER.

Let us know how you do.

Take care of yourself, erleichda.

That sucks, and I feel your pain. A lot of people in my family are sick right now, including me. Woke up Christmas morning feeling a little queasy, but attributed that to the wine I was drinking Christmas Eve. Went to my sisters, didn’t really feel like eating anything, but didn’t think much of it. Went to my Aunts later in the afternoon, feel asleep as soon as I got there, and woke up 3 hours later feeling like I’d been hit by a truck. Now my head is filled with poison gas, I’ve barely eaten since Christmas Eve, and every part of my body hurts like hell. I think I’m going to have to miss work today too, which sucks since I don’t get sick time. My mom spent Christmas in bed and missed it entirely. My niece threw up all over 3 people Christmas Eve, I think she was the one who had it first. Poor kid’s always sick (weak immune system).

Pass that chicken soup here, and I hope you feel better!

erleichda–always remember, crabs walk sideways because seafood restaurateurs approach from the front.

And while you’re trying to figure that out, get better soon.

Thanks again, everybody. And damn, Apocalypso, you’ve got it worse than me! I am feeling better today, but still tired and lacking energy. At least whatever I had took down my insomnia with a vengeance, I’ve had no trouble sleeping!
