immunity community

i'm down with fever (again!).
this is like the 4th? 5th? time this year.
what's wrong with me?
am i not eating right? the last time i checked, i ate everything in sight. so that's definitely not a problem.
the last time i had a fever a month back, my temperature went up to 39.6 degs.
my body was burning, but i felt chilly. i'd get irritable by every little noise and every little noise seemed really loud. and i kinda freaked myself out by thinking i had dengue (which i didn't, of cos).
this time, it's the same kind of fever feeling only it's accompanied by nausea and diarrhea.
was it something i ate?

anyway, i hate popping pills cos i think all these extra chemicals ingested are just not good for the body in the long run.
besides, i can't swallow pills. the oesophagus never opens wide enough to swallow them and i end up either throwing up or choking myself. not a pretty sight and sound.

i wanna take a day (or maybe two) off from school, but i'm too lazy to go see the doc.
no, wait, correction.
i'm too sick to leave the house and see the doc.
meanwhile, lemme just have fluids, fluids and more fluids.

luv, tash 10:05 PM
