Drink plenty of fluids, get plenty of rest, take your pain meds, and give yourself a hug. Hope you feel better soon.
Hi SK, well that just sucks! I'm so sorry you're suffering, take extra special care of yourself and feel better soon.
Thinking of you.
Hugs, Robyn
Best advice Susan...hope you are well enough to follow it. Drink electroylyte's as much as you can. Seems to help me better than anything else when I'm feeling just down down down & so damn sick. I'm not exactly sure why 'it' works but it seems that 'extra hydration' with us FM folks acts as a PLUS.
Hope u try this and feel better real soon.
Gentle hugs to/for you,
tis, Geranium

My Dear SK -
I hope this helps you. On Friday, May 3, I woke up and was bare able to get dressed and even scooter-walk my dog. I called my ex-wife who was working at home and begged her to help me. She came over and took the beast. I spent most of Friday feeling like I was withdrawing from crack. I now realize, it was probably just the flu. I slept most of Friday, 23 hours on Saturday and most of Sunday as well. On Monday morning, I'd had it and scheduled an appointment with my doctor on Tuesday but come Tuesday, I felt better and canceled it.
Aside from all the non-stop sleep, I had extreme sensitivity to light and sound, achy joints, cold sweats, nausea, extreme fatigue and frequent/urgent urination. Looking back, the urination issue was probably due to the fact that I was drinking as much Gatorade as possible. Also, the cold sweats were due to to the fact that I took some acetaminophen.
What helped was soup (I used Egg Drop and Hot & Sour from my local chinese delivery place), flat diet coke as well as eggs (scrambled/sunny side up). I know I had nausea but you have to eat to keep your strength up. I also had sticky rice from the chinese place but I never got to it.
I hope you feel better soon. People forget that even though we are sick 365/24/7 with FM, we are still allowed to get sick with common, every day illnesses, general stupid accidents (like nail-gunning your finger to the wall) and unexpected hospital requirements (gall bladder removal, heart attack, etc). I actually knew somebody who asked me how much sympathy did I require because I was getting carpal tunnel surgery repaired. I responded by telling her she was correct and that I did not require any sympathy from anybody. In particular, it would be helpful to me if she were to concentrate on other friends and their issues because the one thing I DID NOT NEED, WANT or REQUIRE was sympathy fro somebody keeping a scorecard. "Life is not a competition. It is about making connections and trying to be happy with the cards you are dealt."
I've not spoken to her since. Meanwhile, SK, I am here for you. In fact, I an here in MARYLAND, USA for you. I'm not terribly mobile but please do not hesitate to ask if there is anything you need that I might be able to provide. If you want a phone call? I'm there - a good knock, knock joke? I'm your man - an obscure movie recommendation? I'm your man.
In the meantime, see if you can get your hands on chicken soup. I'd be willing to share my grandmother's chicken soup recipe if you are up for some light cooking or have someone mildly capable in the kitcten. If that is the case, then I also am prepared to share her recipe for cabbage soup. Yeah, I know. you are reading this this and thinking "cabbage soup"??? Why on earth would I want cabbage soup. I mean just the word "cabbage' sends shivers through my spine. And that is fine. I can tell you the love of my life and the woman who recently ended our relationship both said the same thing. In fact, everyone who has ever tasted this soup has said the same thing. That is, they said the same thing BEFORE they actually tasted it. After that first spoonful, they were hooked. Like a crack addict, they spent the rest our their time with me chasing the white rabbit of the cabbage soup gods.
Feel better, my dear.
Marc
