Anyone Been Sick This Season?

Has anyone gotten really sick yet this winter?

I am sicker than a dog. It literally happened overnight on Tuesday and I was in pure misery until I finally went to the emergency room yesterday morning.

Aw - I'm sorry. Hope you feel better!

Does S.A.D. count? It's been really gloomy here for almost an entire month, and it's starting to wear on me -- emotions bubbling just under the surface, decreased appetite, etc. I'm a weepy mess.

Yes, I'm sick now, too. Really congested and achy and . . . just blah. I haven't felt like this in a looong time. Yuck. The flu is going around here and it seems like everyone is sick.

Feel better, diss.

That sucks, I hope you guys feel better.

I literally thought I was knocking on Death's door. Couldn't sleep, had cold sweats, tremors, fever, I couldn't swallow; you name it. I didn't get out of bed for almost three days, you should have seen how rank it was (and how atrocious I smelled).

Never in my life have I been so sick.

Eh, go get laid.

Or get Murphy Brown on DVD, that's what I've been watching all week and it certainly cheered me up.

Sorry you've been ill, diss. Hope you're feeling better.

I haven't been sick this season, and I doubt I'll catch anything. I'm as healthy as a horse.

I'm 24 and have never had strep, mono, or even the flu.

I'm so sorry you're not feeling well, being sick is the worst.
And, uh, no, I haven't gotten sick this year. I can't remember the last time, which is good, because I cry when i'm sick, it's very upsetting.
Please take it easy and get better.

I'm sorry. Well, you have your Franz Ferdinand cd, your Medium dvd's, just relax, and take your medicines. Hope you feel better soon

Strep throat is my #1 enemy. I get it at least once a year. It's gotten to the point where I know when I'm about to get it, so I make an appointment ahead of time. But usually I'm too lazy and just go to the emergency room for Advil with codeine.

The pain I was in made me cry, dear.

I thought I had a new strain of the flu or something. The doctor put me on these new intensive antiobiotics, the treatment only lasts five days. Two pills the first day and one for the next four days.

I know there's something wrong when I'm not in the mood to listen to Franz.

No, he didn't even tell me what was wrong. He just wrote the prescription. For all I know, I have VD.

I yelled at him because he stuck the tongue depressor down my throat twice. What a prick bastard he was. Then he had the gall to bitch me out for not waiting until Monday to make an appointment.

you yelled at him? Did you yell "Hey!!! Don't stick that thing down my throat again!!!!"?
actually, my friend's friend just went to the doctor for something similar, and they gave him antibiotics, too.

I think he had a touch of bronchitis w/flu, though. Hopefully it will do something for you.

Hope ya feel better
