Aren't you able to take some sort of antipyretic (e.g., Tylenol, Advil) to reduce your fever? Having a fever really makes you feel bad.

Hope you recover soon :)

I was taking ibuprofen (Advil) last night. I'm taking Tylenol today. My fever has gone down to about 99.7.

heh....99.7 is a lite music station in my town. Of course that has nothing to do with you being sick, but I figured I'd point it out anyways :D

Glad to hear your temp. is going down.

This can't be good....

I've started to get the chills again, my temp is climbing and I had dry heaves about an hour ago. The nyquil that I have is at my house so I just sent my mom out for some nyquil, orange juice, and a movie. (The movie being the most important of course.) I just wish I would feel better. :(

Ok, here's what you do. Get something that will make you really sleepy (like warm milk or something) and then (here's the important part) tell your mom to go out and rent Gladiator for you. That's the bestest movie ever. By the time you regain consciousness you'll be all better.

Trust me, I'm not a doctor, but I play one on the internet. ;):D

Edit: Forgot that kids visit these message boards too.....cleaned up my post a little bit. :)

LOL @ Cougar. :D I actually haven't seen Gladiator yet. Maybe that's not such a bad idea. ;)

Okay....I'm off to la la land in a little while.

EDIT: One of my favorite 'strong' drinks is a Kamakaze(SP?). :D

DISCLAIMER: Kids....Don't do this at home!! Or anywhere for that matter. :p

*****GASP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!**************


You haven't seen Gladiator yet?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

How dare you!!!!!!! :D

1st of all, Russel Crowe is awesome in that movie

2nd, the movie is awesome

and 3rd, Russel Crowe is awesome.

I think I'm feeling sick now too.......how can someone not have seen gladiator........I've lost the will to live............must make it my mission to make sure everyone has seen gladiator..........FREEDOM!!!!!!!....oops...wrong movie.

Heh, anyways if it makes a difference my sister actually liked that movie (you could tell 'cause she actually stayed awake through the whole thing:)). She doesn't typically like &quot;guy&quot; flicks, but this one she liked (must have been the love story within the movie).

Heather,
Sorry to hear you are feeling under the weather, I hope you feel better soon. &quot;I'm not a real doctor, but I play one online&quot;, I prescribe some good hot chicken soup for you, there is supposed to be scientific proof that it works.
Glad you have your mom to take care of you.

(((((Heather))))):)

Well, right now we're watching Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I do need to see Gladiator though. I'm not the typical 'chick'. I love 'guy' movies. :)

Thank you, BQG. :D

Okay, this really sucks. I just got back from the doctor again and this time I was told that I have strep throat and tonsilitis. :confused: I still haven't gotten better even with medicine. So....this doctor gave me some stronger stuff that will hopefully knock out any germ within a mile of me. ;) heehee (I hope anyway.) Now maybe I'll start feeling better. :)
