Feel better!

[freyley]

Thanks! I hope to. They pronounced me untreatable this morning, but not because of my irascibility. Just because they saw no signs of bacterial infection.

Ouch. Hope you feel better soon.

[freyley]

me too.

[freyley]

oh, oh! send me comics to keep me entertained during this time of bleakness? *bats eyelashes* =)

[keystricken]

But of course! The helper robots are happy to help.

There was going to the doctor, right?

I answered you via text, but for anyone else reading this: the fever hasn't stayed that high all the time. (It's only dangerous if it doesn't break.) But freyley's continuing to be pretty sick, so there will be a trip to urgent care Friday, if there isn't dramatic improvement.

We have health insurance, but neither of us has found a primary care practitioner, and urgent care is faster than trying to find a new doctor.

went this morning. it was no fun.

maybe this is already obvious, but: ibuprofen!!! i was super sick last winter with a fever around 103, and it affected my cognition enough that i didn't think to try OTC meds for a couple days...but then when i finally did, the fever dropped 2 degrees in 2hrs and i felt human again.

in any case, i hope you feel better soon. <3

Thanks. The 102.7 (and yesterday's 104.4) were both in the interludes between drugs, to see whether I had made any progress. Unfortunately, the _massive_ shivering that happens in that interlude to get me up to that temperature is really, really unpleasant.

I'm still hoping to pull through. =)
