How about some hugs for a sick person?
I feel like crap. I'm on day 3 of the flu, I'm sweating with fever at the moment, and
as fate would have it, I got my DAMN period this afternoon too. :(

Just shoot me.

3. Hugs for you...
I had the flu at the end of January/beginning of February...right when my period decided to show up on time for change. :(
I figured as long as I was going to be miserable, I might as well get all the misery out of the way.

Take good care of yourself... :hug::hug::hug:

12. 101-102...I just got some Tamiflu today...might be too late.
It had been longer than 48 hours, but the NP said it might help. I just started on it.

34. I have a hug for you.
:hug:

I hope that fever breaks, the flu passes, and the period is barely noticable. :)

Most of all, I hope you can get some good rest.

35. I can send vibes :)
I can also say that I once broke a 104F fever by drinking the broth of dried shiitake mushrooms. Maitake are also supposed to be strong immune system boosters. Paul Stamets talks about this and other mushrooms.
