    This reminds me, did anyone realize that drinking massive amounts of Robitussin (like, two bottles) supposedly has the same effects as taking acid? I was reading an article about how that's the new thing for kids to do.

    considering all the chemicals that are in them, I wouldn't doubt it. I hate to say it, but people who come up with ideas like that really should look into becoming bio-chemists. It would have never occurred to me to make meth out of sinus tablets, or get drunk off Nyquil, or get high like on acid by drinking loads of robitussin... it is sad that those who have that kind of creativity or even any kind of knowledge of stuff like that, are wasting it on making drugs to sell or get high when they could be making money doing essentially the same thing, but legally with a pharmaceutical research company. Kind of like taking con artists and hiring them to help catch the other cons.

    Yeah. Unfortunately, I think it's more just a matter of people so desperate to get wasted that they drink everything in the medicine cabinet until something works.

    But does anyone have "tips" to getting over a fever faster than usual??

    I've done the typical "drink lots of fluids" stuff and taken Advil all day...But it doesn't seem to be getting any better.
    Thanks a lot... you gave it to me... now I feel like crap and I have two kids under age 4 to look after until 9pm tonight.

    Nevermind, my bad. My 'sickness' is completely different. Definitely unlike anything I have ever had before.

    Soak in a cool bath. It helps to cool your entire body down, and if yu still have a fever afterward a cool washcloth helps a little, but really your fever is your bodys immune system working it will just take time. Let your body rest, but if your fever reaches 105 call 911! Cause your brain is boiling!

    oh, good Lord no! That would definitely be more pleasant than what I have, but I would also be filing a malpractice suit on my OB for not tying me up properly! I can't have any more kids.

    no, I have a bacterial infection in my tonsils and the lymph nodes in my throat. It is painful and dreadfully uncomfortable. Think of having strep throat with a double ear infection, but x3 or 4 as far as pain, fever, and all sorts of stuff.

    I finally got antibiotics yesterday, and they are starting to work, but I still have difficulty talking without discomfort because of the swelling. I am also very congested and my ears are just now starting to drain. The dr. gave me some pain meds that take the pain away, but also make me dizzy and disoriented, so I have to stay in bed or at least sitting down as much as possible. This means I had to bail on the daycare kids this whole week on dr's orders. I feel totally bad for the parents, but there's nothing I can do about it at the moment. I do have a backup who I trust (Nathan & Ben's old daycare lady), but one of the moms is paranoid and won't utilize her, but then gives me grief about not having anyone else to watch her son when I am sick. Ugh. She's the one who is leaving as of 6/8, so I am not all that worried about her.

    That sounds pretty awful. Get better, Fuzzy!
