Time is the only remedy. Just remember, you are running a fever. DO NOT cover yourself becuase you feel cold. You are not cold. You are extremely hot. You need to keep your body cool and take showers as cool as you can stand them. Also, drink a lot of water, especially if you are having a hard time keeping it down. When you are sick it is easy to become dehydrated, especially if you get diarrhea. Try to eat light things. Saltines are good to replenish lost sodium counts. They will also help with your electolyte balance. Also try thermiflu(sp?). I have heard that it helps.

 

Gatorade, sprite, 7 up, for drinks. Or there are some things at the store that say if used at the first signs they can reduce the time you have it. I do not know if that is true or not.

 

DayQuil/NyQuil is what I depend on...

 

thanks for all of yalls replies... i am feeling a bit better and i didnt have to take anything simply because i didnt have anything to take lol so i will remember this next time i start to feel like this again lol

 

+1 to my immunity to everything including HIV
muahahah

 

Irarely get sick, but when I do, oooohhhh its a good un'. I work it out, keep myself busy, do lots of chores, yard work ect. Keep hydrated, drink equal parts of gatorade and water, not mixed of course, but one bottle of water for every bottle of gatorade. If I sit around feeling all sick, it just makes it that much worse for me so I keep busy and tough it out. Alternate tylenol and motrin for the fever though.

 

Or as Denis Leary would say...

NyQuil, NyQuil, NyQuil, I love you, you giant f**king Q!"
