Sick Sickos - A place to post when you are ill

I think that would be a wonderful beverage. I was coming at it more from an active ingredient perspective. “the Vitamin C for health, the honey to soothe, the alcohol to numb” to quote Victoria Moore as quoted in the first paragraph of the hot toddy wikipedia page. Eleuthero won’t get you drunk, but it can relieve stress.

Ooh, that’s a good one.

I’ve found that ginseng tastes like dirt and gives me diarrhea, so I went for taste.

I really want to stop having pneumonia now, please.

Isn’t Nurse Joy more like a veterinarian who just happens to occasionally stabilize blacked out children

Are you saying that isn’t a vital healthcare service?

Yesterday I was going to meet up with an out of town friend, get pizza, and see a show but then this gd running nose & sinus pressure hit me like a ton of bricks. I tried ordering a plain cheese large thin crust and it was not worth the 24$ they were charging, it didn’t even have garlic sauce.

For the record, veterinarian medicine absolutely counts as vital healthcare!

…for pets! For pets only!

My pets are more vital than my blood relatives.

My pneumonia never fully recovered and now I’m down again. Been coughing for like a month now. At a CVS getting some more antibiotics.

I have Covid, third time for me, all three times i have gotten it through my mom. Been mildish this time.

Idk why but all three times I’ve had Covid I play a lot of Pokemon Trozei. I guess my brain gravitates to mindless swapping.

Got a nasty stomach situation since last night. It’s annoying when you’re already empty but your body still wants to keep puking.

Got some meds and now I can keep water down at least. (haven’t tried eating again yet)

Oh no

I’ve had it twice, even though I’ve always been fully up to date on my boosters.

The second time was late June last year, and it had left me with long covid effects I continue to struggle with to this day. I don’t wish this on anyone.

I hope you only have it light, recover quickly, and get back to normal with ease

Thankyou!

It was mild thankfully and I think by this point 6 days in I have almost no symptoms left.

I’m really sorry about your long covid issues. Really sucks. I’ve had some medical issues that I have no idea if they were related to long covid and no doctor wanted to entretain the idea (which sucks).
