Well what about that?

[hypatia42]

I just spiked a fever of 101. Not sure what the hell is wrong but something is sure up. I have two days to be sick. I need to be better by Monday clinic. There is no other option. I will take my two days. And if I need to be bloody well sick I will. *Hey Universe! I need this!*

I'm a little scared though. I haven't felt this much whole body pain in a while. Sudden onset arthritis. Only not. So, anybody with juju to spare, please send it my way. I need healing and a healthy body.

Fever, whole body pain? Sort of feeling sick all over, instead of a headcold or chest cold or stomach bug?

If there's a chance this could be The Real Influenza (instead of the half-a-dozen other viruses that sometimes get called "flu"), and if you can deal with Western Industrialized Medicine, you may want to call your doctor sooner rather than later. There's treatment out now to make influenza last less long, but you need to start taking it within the first 48 hours from symptom onset for it to work.

Plus rest, fluids, juju.

Influenza

That was kinda my thought. Headed to the clinic this morning. Fever has come down a bit. Enough that I think I can take a shower before I go.

I'm all about Western Medicine doing what it is supposed to do. I don't mind going to see the Dr when I *need* to go.
