Topic: i feel like shit

Falco !a7Q.SWNEJw started this discussion 13 years ago #25,330

i got my flu shot 2 weeks ago and got a cold, or something like it. ---i reacted to it in some sort of way. it sucked, but no biggie.

but then last night I had the chills so bad... and then when i woke up i felt like i was run over by a fucking lawnmower. fuck I feel horrible.

another issue is that i dont have a whole lot of hours this month and they called me asking if i wanted some more, but i had to call out for the day right then and there!! fuck!!

what do?? I've been sick to some degree like all month. I'd do anything to just feel even -okay- at this point. mom says go to the doctor, but mine is one hour away and that's $50 of gas D:

Drink plenty of water. Sleep when you can - painkillers and decongestants might help that happen.

If that doesn't work, switch to living on whiskey and speed.

> getting flu shots

That's your problem. Those things are more harm than good. Can't remember the last time I had a flu shot, nor the last time I had the flu.

Aspirin + C and drink a shitload of black tea (real black tea not some random shit from the supermarket).

A litre of black tea and you're set for the day. ;)

How so? Some people will get flu-like symptoms for a few days after, and a sore injection site. And there's a very rare chance of allergic reaction. These things are all massively outweighed by the protection the shot provides, no?

When you're as old as he is, you could easily not just pass out but pass away. The flu is much worse when you're old.

Most flu strains are more dangerous in healthy young adults. Strong immune response to them is bad.

I have heard this is true for some flu strains such as Spanish flu and the H1N1 we saw in 2009, but I don't know if it is true for most strains.
