Great! I just got a new virus!!

Post by Worm of Despite »

AHHH!!! :x And finals begin tomorrow!! I’ve got dysentery, is what I’m trying to say. Could hardly sleep a bloody wink last night. And as I type this, my whole body's weak as a noodle. Wonderful. At least I'm not throwing up anymore. Anybody know if there's something I should drink to settle my stomach? I was using Gatorade. Seems to be working, but I'll bet there's something better. :x

Tea with honey, and saltine crackers with butter.

That's what I eat when I'm sick like that.

If I don't make it, I want you to collect all my poems on Hall of Gifts, Duchess, and try to publish them . . . :faint:

Drink a lot of water, stick with light-colored watery foods like the aforementioned broth, take some antacids. Probably make you feel better to keep some potassium, magnesium, and calcium (but avoid dairy) in your system.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Good Lord man!

Do you have any idea how you came into contact with dysentery?

eeewwwww dysentry .. isnt that an advisable or reportable disease?? you know one of those real nasties that you need to let the authorities know you got??

yuk! .. *steps gingerly away from LF .. * ;)

yeah i'd drink plenty of water .. no solids and definately no butter! or dairy of any kind .. methinks ..

dry crackers is prolly a safe solid .. yeah and body salts will need replenshing ..

i hate vomitting at any time .. no fun .. i'd be taking maxalon .. its not only an anti-vomit agent but it encourages the peristaltic (sp?) action that will squeeze the nasties out the other end ..

not planning on leaving home for a few days?? plan on staying close to a bathroom .. eh? ;) ;)

poor buggar!! hope you feel better soon :)
