    Default How to tell if you're sick

    I have no idea.
    Feelings:
    Sore throat but no puss
    body aches (shoulder has been hurting but that was from sleeping on my couch)
    fatigue (I took a several hour nap today)
    thirsty alot
    felt like this yesterday

    I also don't own a thermometer.
    Could I just be dehydrated or something else? SW be my mommy.

    It sound like you might be getting the flu. I know you don't have a thermometer but do you feel hot/cold?

    Go get Emergen-C. Drink it.

    You could be getting sick...but a backed up lymph system will give you the same feelings.

    You can also go buy some Epsom salts and sit in a hot bath. The salts help draw out toxins, etc. Drink the Emergen-C and get plenty of sleep. Maybe go for a deep tissue massage if you can.

    Hope you feel better soon!

    VG always has the best advice for these things. Next time I get sick, Im dunking my ass in a tub of Epsom salt.

    Hope you feel better soon.

    I second the emergen-C. It's really good and if you can find it in sugar free, it has like 5 calories.

    I feel like a hot bath with epsom right now would be heeeeaven!

    And buy yourself a thermometer, TM!

    what kind of sore throat do you have?

    if it hurts more when you drink, i'd consider a sinus infection. or something else infected, tonsils or something.

    go to a doctor.

    Oh...if you have sinus problems, then invest in a Neti Pot. It will be one of the best investments ever.

    EmegenC is good and Airborne is a good dose of vitamin C. You may just be under the weather and could fight this off before it goes anywhere.

    Drink lots of fluids to hydrate yourself and help flush any toxins you may have.

    Gotta do a bach party tonight. So, gonna pop some ibuprofen and epsom salt bath and make it through. Maybe it was the swinger party last weekend that made me sick? Oh well, thanks for the well wishes.

    My throat still hurts when I swallow - there goes this weeks plans.
    I don't feel like crap anymore though so I guess thats a good sign. I just want this to go away naturally.

    There is a lot of sore throat going around over here, too. Probably a good idea to cancel any...throat related plans. Just in case!

    Good news: my throat is feeling better and is much easier to swallow today. Not perfect but much better. There's alot of good responses in this thread so it goes on file. I don't get sick that often but when I do *whammo* it knocks me back.
