I Am Unwell
By Roger ~ July 27th, 2006. Filed under: What's Up?.
Does this sound like a recurring theme? Since yesterday my body aches (feels like it’s in the bones), my head hurts, my stomach feels sick, though I haven’t been sick, and I get hot/cold flashes.
Sounds viral. Stay away.
Ibuprofen has been taking care of the problem quite well, though. When it’s in my system, at least. I wake up rather uncomfortable in the mornings.
Need sleepy…
For Posterity:
Sx:
Muscle aches/joint pain/headache
Nausea/light stomach cramps
Chills/light sweats
Tx (per Betty, RN at WIC):
Liquids (water)
Rest
Can alternate Ibuprofen/Acetaminafin for pain if desired.

Day #2, I’m feeling no better. I did go from chilled under the blankets to sweating while uncovered in the last hour, though. Ugh.

Um, Rog? It sounds like you are going through menopause. Hot flashes?? Hope you feel better! I missed you guys yesterday!!

Last I knew, menopause didn’t include any of the other things on my list, though. If every menopausal woman went through what I’ve been through the last 5 days, I’d assume fewer women would make it to menopause.

Okay is a relative term…I suppose I’m OK. We’ll see how much as I go to work today.
