I got up this morning with an agenda. Grab a few new small tool items, finish a commissioned P&P set and do some more shop organizing. By 10 AM I was expelling fluids... let's just say it hasn't been pretty! Headache, achy back and fever to boot! I haven't felt this bad that I can remember! Stomach viruses usually run their course with me in less than 8 hours. This one is tenacious!

So much for making plans! LOL! But this too shall pass. Just had to vent! Thanks for listening!

Billy have been to the Dr. to check for west nile virus?
This is from the CDC site:

Serious Symptoms in a Few People. About one in 150 people infected with WNV will develop severe illness. The severe symptoms can include high fever, headache, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis. These symptoms may last several weeks, and neurological effects may be permanent.

Milder Symptoms in Some People. Up to 20 percent of the people who become infected have symptoms such as fever, headache, and body aches, nausea, vomiting, and sometimes swollen lymph glands or a skin rash on the chest, stomach and back. Symptoms can last for as short as a few days, though even healthy people have become sick for several weeks.
If you get a rash get to the Dr.
Hope you get to feeling better soon.
 
Oh Billy, stop being a big girls blouse!!:tongue: You find as you get older that symptons like that happen every morning and are just natures way of telling you that you are still alive.:biggrin:












Just kidding....get well soon!!:doctor:
 
Thanks, folks! Not 100% yet, but feeling much better so far than yesterday.

Robert, that was actually mine and LOML's first concern. Although it being a virus, there isn't much they can do. That said, if it persists, I'll be going along when she gets back to town this afternoon.
 
Steven, I have never minded being a big girl's blouse! But since this is a family site, I'll just stop there. :biggrin:

Get well. I am glad you weren't the same elevator today that took us to the 9th floor. The change in altitude and pressure can play tricks on ones' system. :eek:
