A fever? Okay, I guess we'll take this into consideration when responding to your P&N posts. ;)

Anyway, drink lots of fluids (no, not beer), sleep a lot, and whine it out like a man.

The sweating is the fever breaking. You're on your way to recovery.

This.

The high temperature means your body is doing it's job.

And taking medications to knock the fever down, when the fever isn't anywhere near dangerous, is simply interfering with your body's ability to fight off whatever it's fighting off.

But, you're whining about 100.6??! Wait til you really get sick!

i dont think i have had a fever in atleast 5 years...

also, now the fever is gone, the body ache is gone, the stuffy nose is gone, but i have a headache like no other... ive been drinking LOTS of water, and wondering if its just the fact that i havent eaten much, so i ate, and the headache got worse, but meh, it shall fade... hopefully
