Haha... I have a Fever

[skalomax]

Well after years on not having a fever it finally hit me.
I forgot how crummy it feels and its only 101.2 F.

What is recommended for the fever to go away ASAP?

Thanks

I understand how you feel. A little over a month ago, I had my first cold in over 4 years. I'd almost forgotten how filthy and unsociable a disease it was.

Cool yourself down and get rid of your toothbrush. . .

MORE COWBELL!!!!

Oh sorry, wrong thread! (perfect setup however....)

 

[skalomax]

Haha...

Its weird, I feel "ok" in the day but at night all hell breaks loose.
Im shaking and not because Im cold.

Just took some Advil Liquid Gels, hopefully that helps me out a little.

haha...best wishes
I had a small fever over the beginning of January...not fun and the weather isnt helping

Drink plenty of liquid coolants, until your pee runs clear and you have to go every hour.

TYLENOL is the favored fever reducer.

You have fever and chills. Fever is often higher at night. Tylenol is the favored fever reducer (as stated above), but it's always been worthless for anything I take it for.

Fever is said to be a defense mechanism of the body, for fighting infection. I try not to take anything as long as I can stand it, to let the fever do it's job. A cold shower reduces my fever rapidly, for a brief time. Easing into the cold is better than all at once.

Please note I'm not in the medical profession, so take this with a grain of salt and suspicion.

Thanks.

Took a nice Cold shower about 50min ago and felt much better.
My throat Is a bit sore but nonetheless feel better than last night

Im on my 4-5th Water Bottle since the morning.

Thanks for the advice.

Take your temp often. People often trivialize fevers and they can often become deadly. Get Well!

 

[skalomax]

Thanks,

Just took my temp and Its @ 98.1F

My head hurts and my throat is sore but at least I dont have a fever anymore

Hopefully It stays that way.

So you guys & gals don't get sick to frequently, huh? Geez, I guess I've just grown accustomed to getting bronchitis twice a year. This past fall my fever was around 104*F and oddly enough, I felt fine. Well, that is besides the whole difficulty breathing thing.

(while knocking FIRMLY on wood!)

I almost never get stay home/feel terrible sick. I get nasal drips and such but they are more **** me off than put me down.

Now muscle aches and pains is a WHOLE other thing!

Love that pic of Cowbell Man!
