WOW. since my last post, the chest ache, slight breathing issue went away, then Wed. night I woke up with bad aches in my neck, (on side where artery is) shoulder and arm (tingling). but the second my gland under my throat started swelling, I was like, shit, I have a bad virus or infection.

I haven't been sick in 8 or so years. so when something infects me, it's GOTTA be a badass virus [img]smile.gif[/img] . So I went to the Doc yesterday, spent 5 hrs there, they took an Xray of my chest, took 4 things of blood and such, I wait for the results....


Nothing. blood count fine, xray fine. but I was like, uh, remember my glands are swollen under my neck, SOMETHING is attacking my system..

I think it is some type of upper resp. infection. so I got E-Micen... woke up just now, and wow, both sides feel swollen now, but in a day or so, it could feel better-- It BETTER, or I'll go back.

My oxygen count was 100% too. the nurse said she never saw it perfect before. [img]smile.gif[/img] And I do smoke sometimes--not much, and certainly not right now. but weird huh.

But man, I feel like I was hit by a bus, eh? is that the normal feeling? Fatigue and stuff? Its royally pissing me off, because I Wanna get work done here, but I feel like crap [img]smile.gif[/img] .

I shall sacrifice a virgin tonight, so you might get better. :D

Seriously, that sucks dude, good luck with everything.

Sorry to hear it, Z. And, yeah fatigue is normal. My wife got hit by some bug back in July and she was laid out for 2 weeks -- really sick. Something nasty is going around. Take care of yourself!

If you have good labs, they'll find out what is wrong... Hang in there.

</font>[/QUOTE]Shit.. That is true, it could be! I work in side a lot during the day, but weekends and nights.. hmmm. weird.

BTW, they also hooked me up to a cardogram(sp) with suckion cups all over my body to see if I had a heart issue, and nada. all fine. WEEE!!!

My plan is to get my ass better, and get my bloody EfU mod hakpak I am finishing this month DONE [img]smile.gif[/img] and then comes the unexpected surprise. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Everything is currently on hold. ugh. I hate it.

I hope they figure out what's causing the trouble soon, Z! That's got to be distressing, not knowing!

Just take care of yourself!

The tests were stat, so I found out yesterday.. no probs with blood or xray, so it's viral I guess. even anti-biotics wont help that. but it could be bactiral.. I see my primary doc the 30th, so if its not better by then, she will check me out. [img]smile.gif[/img] I feel so tired though.. wow. crappy feeling.

Ziroc 09-16-2005 04:25 PM

PS: don't care about mispelled words.. too tired. ugh. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Get well, Ziroc. Weird ailment, to be sure. Now, to read all those Africa links.

Johnny, why don't you send that virgin over to me -- I'm sure the gods will consider it a "sacrifice." Thanks, bud, I'll owe you one.
