Being sick.
Mar. 7th, 2010 09:08 amSo on Friday, I started coming down with a fever. I also started having abdominal cramps for no particular reason when I ate something -- not good. My appetite had also dropped off to nothing. Yesterday my fever made only a mild appearance, but the cramping became accompanied by stomach issues whenever I tried anything other than broth or plain vanilla ice cream, leading to me taking acid blockers a couple of times in an effort to keep things down to a dull roar from the times I tried something more.
This morning I wake up and my stomach seems back to normal and there's no fever to speak of. I have a glass of orange juice with no ill effect, so then I try a piece of toast, as I'm actually feeling a little hungry. My body is now rejecting this decision and my stomach is complaining and giving me gas again, so now I'm back to broth again for the rest of the day, in the hopes that if I give it time to recover, it'll settle back down to its normal self. This is the weirdest damn ailment I've ever run across. I hope I'm not having to live on broth for the next week. Gah.
