I'm Sick

It has been two days since I am not feeling well. I had eaten something that resulted in a stomach upset. The worst part is that I need to teach online for 8 hours. We do not have a feature to cancel our classes online. So I need to endure the pain. One more hour and then, I am done with my work. How do you deal with your frustrations in life?

I think it is the food being offered by my uncle last Saturday. It was raw seafood.

@LadyDuck I think it is half-cooked.

@Shavkat Surely raw seafood can be dangerous.

@Shavkat I am so so sorry how you are feeling and that you have to suffer and teach and cannot rest and take care of yourself. When I am not feeling well then I rest.

I hope I could find a more table job and can just cancel things up not to work.

@Shavkat I wish you had enough money that you did not have to work.

I am sorry to hear that. Did you take the medicine? Usually you will feel better after that. Have a good rest and I hope you will get well soon.

We all know you're sick but in a different way than you're claiming to be sick this time.

I stay in bed and pester Pretty by telling her I don't feel good as often as she checks on me...

As long as I don't ask her to make anything for me to eat, she'll listen and tell me she's sorry I don't feel good. As soon as I ask for something to eat, she tells me I must be feeling better and stops babying me.

I wish I could have someone to feel like a baby here. The twin babies have all the privilege of doing it. I am feeling better today as compared to last night. But then, I still wanted to have a big-time off soon.

@Shavkat Yeah, little babies have all the luck! I'm glad you're feeling better, buddy. Lots of time off is always good. I hope you can have some soon.

I hope you get well so, you should also go to the hospital if you haven't. Don't take any medication that is not given by the doctor, just get tested first and seek help. About the online classes just say you are unwell don't tire yourself you need to rest.

Don't worry. I am fine with the over-the-counter medicines here.

@Hildasalom Don't worry. I am in the medical field. With this matter, I can tell if it is really needed to go to the hospital.

@Shavkat But it's not advisable, just get used to going to the hospital. You can be given medicine for a wrong disease and you that you are not feeling better.

No worries. I do not have signs and symptoms of Covid 19.

I assumed that it was the raw seafood eaten last Saturday. One of my uncles offered such a local dish that I am not into eating. I cannot refuse because it will be a disrespectful thing to do at that time.

@Babino I think I am a bit fine now. Actually, I am allergic to seafood but not that serious.

Good thing you could still do your online teaching despite your health problems. Hoping that your health issue will resolve soon so you could continue with your life with ease .

I took some pills and was able to withstand the uncomfortable feeling while teaching. I am much better than yesterday night.

Yes, I did. This is one of the downsides when working with a company.

So sorry that you had to teach while sick. Isn't there a way that there could be a button added to cancel lessons?

I can tag myself absent from my classes. However, the consequences are worst to deal with if it is being done.

I wasn't feeling good either yesterday. My back was hurting most of the day. Today I feel better.
