Do you ever feel just sick for a day?

I'm home sick.

Felt achy, and so VERY tired.

I do this occasionally, have a day when I'm just so not ready to do anything and essentially stay home and sleep. :(
I just had last week off, too.

Anybody else? :) I really don't feel well, but I'm sure I will be better tomorrow.

1. Last week I had a stomach virus

Got sick that night, lost it all, felt fine the next day. It lasted 3 days for my wife. That was the first sick day I took off work in 5 years.

2. Did the same thing today.

Intestinal spasms all night, no sleep.
I hope I feel better tomorrow. Cant afford to take another day off.

3. Hope you feel better soon

No. I don't just feel sick for a day these days.

Not sure what's going on, but I've lost a ton of weight and can't hardly eat more than one slice of sandwich meat.

I quit my job a few weeks ago, and though I have another one, it takes a few months before they let one "get on board" for the insurance.

I won't go to the doc because if he finds something, it'll be a pre-something something condition.

sorry, I usually keep these things to myself.

5. Mosey, have you done an elimination diet?

I wonder if you have any food sensitivities that are doing that to you? Gluten, perhaps?

It sounds like you should get to the doctor. Is it the cost that you're worried about, or that they'll find something? I remember in another thread you mentioned puking alot. :(

Please take care. :hug:

7. thanks for asking

I know I don't have any food sensitivities.

I have a stupid doctor, and I have a stubborn mind.

I'll be fine.

You and yours be fine too!

4. I had the stomach flu on the weekend

:(

I hope you feel better soon, D_K. Does it have anything to do with the heat? I heard the Peg had record heat (though I haven't checked if it's still hot or not there, it's lovely and cool here in Deadmonton, finally...)

:hug:

You did the right thing. Hope you feel better soon! :hug:
