I have been for 48 hours now. I keep getting a temperature of almost 104. I can't stand it anymore. I'm dizzy, coughing, sneezing, and I can't concentrate.
This is the first I've been on the computer since Sunday and it's really making me crazy sitting here cause I'm so darn light headed.
If I don't get better soon I think I'm going to the hospital.
I have no apetite, but trying to drink.
I'm hoping my son don't get it. He has a trach, and it will be really bad if he gets sick.
Please pray I get better soon!

I'm sorry to hear about your son. I have been sick for about two weeks now with a head, neck and earache. I'm not sure what it is, but it is very hard to get rid. I'm glad you haven't had to have hospital stays. That is awful and expensive on top of all of it.

Considering my son's trach, I guess we have been pretty lucky. He hasn't had to be admitted ANY this year-- and last year he was awful in and out of the hospital for weeks at a time. So, even though we have been sick, I guess it's better than last year--- which is good.
I'm just glad spring is almost here!!

Slowly, but surely I'm feeling better. That virus/bug held on for a while! Even after the fever went away, I ended up with a small cold. Then my baby got sick, then my boyfriend, then I had a small cold again after that.... and then my boyfriend got it back.
Then my poor son today got some stomach bug.
It's crazy the germs that go around!

Everyone in my apartment seems to be sick with something at the moment. I haven't really gotten anything full on yet, but I'm starting to feel like I've got something coming on. I've been taking some vitamin C tablets just in case. Want to try and stop it or at least not make it so bad if I can help it. Just remember to keep washing your hands and hopefully it won't spread.

You need some help, especially if you've been taking fever reducing medicine and it's not working. It's good that you can still drink. I hope you get better soon!

I will pray for your temperature to return to normal and for you to be released completely from your symptoms. I will also pray God's protection over your son and for his healing.
God Bless

Thank you! He did end up getting sick about 2 weeks later, but his temp only lasted one day and his doctor helped me over the phone so that he didn't have to go to the ER. HE did go to the doctor like 3 times that week so they could keep a good eye on him, but thankfully everything worked out.

Dang with a fever of 104 I'd be at the hospital already. You can go into seizures and what not. You should really go and get yourself looked at before you get sicker and they can't help you. My thoughts and prayers are with you and I hope your soon dont get sick
