Feeling poorly

[Rebecca85]

And feeling a bit sorry for myself I pulled a muscle or something in my back and it aches, and I have a corker of a cold. Can't breathe. Stuffy head. Hot sweats. Sore eyes. Couldn't sleep last night. Even less energy than I had before (didn't know that was possible lol!). Have been struggling not to puke most of the day too. So all in all not a happy bunny.

Ahhhhh poor Rebecca hope you are feeling better soon. Sending you a hug.

 

[Jennjenn]

Awww I hope you feel better

Get well soon, take it easy and get some rest if you can...

 

[MapleLeafGirl]

Take it easy Rebecca and feel better soon. When I get to feeling like that, I just keep telling myself "this too shall pass".

I hope you're resting well! Take care of yourself

 

[Astra]

Take care Rebecca, feeling a bit crap too cold wise, think it's cos weather has gone from boiling hot to pissing it down!
hope you feel better soon, lots of R&R!

Trying to rest! Though the puppy is making it difficult! I have been off pred for about 3 weeks, I know if you get ill while on it you have to go to docs, should I go to docs as a precaution or have I been off long enough that I don't need to?

 

[Astra]

didn't realise you've only just come off, I think it takes time to adjust your adrenal glands. I felt horrible when I was off, like flu, then I got joint pains too, doc says it's normal, but see your doc see what he says

Don't think it's withdrawal, my niece has some sort of virus, saw her on sun amd think I caught it! Anyway have gone to bed with ipod, book, tissues and water. Hopefully will feel better after good nights rest. Night all!

Hey Rebecca, sorry to hear you are not well, joanie's right, the pred is just awful to come off of, and can beat the hell out of your bod and your psyche.

 

[Silvermoon]

Yes, unfortunately, it sounds like a virus to me... so nothing to do but wait it out....

the big worry is to try and control the fever, and don't get too dehydrated...if you go more than 2 or three days without being aboe to get anything down, then I would see a Dr.

Otherwise...rest, rest, and more rest....

As Maple said...this too shall pass....and at least you know it is a temporary (though very miserable) thing!!

Get Well Soon!

Thanks for the hugs and messages! Slept bit better last night and am now feeling more human! Still have the cold but at least I can function again. Luckily I am ahead of myself at work so will be able to go in and take it steady. See you all later!
