    Default Oh yippee, I'm sick

    Yesterday, I noticed that I was getting a bunch of zits on my chest, and I thought "Eww! What the hell?", but I still went to school because I thought they were just nasty zits. Well, they have now spread to my shoulders and back, and have become more numerous on my chest. Yippee, my mom says I probably have the measles. Gotta go to the doctor later today, I think.

    Oh man, the measles! Let me know if your government quarantines your school

    Last time I was sick was just a fairly basic allergy to some dust particles and cat hair, nothing to worry about. Except it made playing Halo slightly harder.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    I'm not sure if I'm sick lately, or just depressed and in a funk. Either way, for the past week or two, I feel the life has been sucked out of me and I have a hard time feeling enthusiastic about anything. Whatever it is, I hope it goes away.

    I had a small cold in September. :P Yay for H1N1 shot. I didn't get a seasonal flu vaccine, so I'm surpised I haven't gotten influenza yet, living in a dorm.

    Measles measles measles measles. *picks up immunization record lying on desk* I had a Measles/Mumps/Rubella vaccine when I was 5, and another just before turning 18. Where've YOU been?

    lom's mom might have gotten that confused with shingles. It's possible to have shingles if you've had chicken pox. My friend got it.

    As has been previously stated, measles is highly unlikely, unless your mom is one of those anti-vaccination nutjobs. I suppose chicken pox/shingles are a possibility, but from what I've heard you'd be in a lot of discomfort. It could just be an allergic reaction to something.

    I don't get sick very often, but my allergies are bad enough to act up occasionally. I also have chronic headaches.

    I had a cold in the beginning or January. My body basically just reacted to all the excessive drinking and partying I'd been doing all throughout December.

    Well, back from the doctor's. She thinks that I have a bacterial reaction, and put me on an antibiotic, but if it gets any worse or doesn't improve after a certain amount of days, then I would need to call and get a new antibiotic or something.

    I get migraines, really bad. I feel completely under the weather and sick when I get them, not just a sore head. If I'm at home, I take a couple of co-codamol and knock myself out for a few hours.

    Along with my allergy, puffed up face - I now have achey neck and head, and a sore throat. I'll just go to sleep early and hope its gone by morning, if not I'll pop a couple of cold/flu tablets if I have to. My body has a great way of timing these things. No way I'm missing the second day at my new job!

    Are you going through... little girl withdrawal?





    Seriously though, I hope you feel better.

    I've had a really bad cold ever since Friday. Started with the sniffles, then constant sneezing and now I'm up to the headaches and really horrible sore throat stage. My voice is going, it isn't nicee!

    When I got my nose pierced I jinxed myself by saying "It'll be alright" (when people said a nose piercing at the time of having a cold is really nasty and uncomfortable) "I don't get colds!" but I then had many colds in the space of having my nose pierced!

    My nose stud has gone now though, but I still have a cold!

    You could have an iron deficiency. Fatigue and lack...zoom is a common sign. Anemia represent!
