I do not have the Flu. I have a severe Upper Respiratory Infection & Bronchitis. Which for someone like me (with no immune system) is a mere step away from turning into full blown pneumonia. Thus the need for stronger / better antibiotics and why I still feel like there is a 1000lbs man is sitting on my chest. Still Home. Still Sick. Nothing to write about. Stronger prescriptions are kicking my ass.

Oh, dear. Please take care of yourself. I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and send you get well vibes.
Oh no…sending more prayers!
BTW…nice chest pic. heh
Im sleeping and drinking plenty of water, but how come when you are sick you feel like you are 5 years old?
I feel for you. I’ve been there… several times. Kinda felt like I was dying.
Bronchitis is horrible but I always felt that keeping a hot pack to my chest and back helped a little. You are in my thoughts and I’ll check back soon 🙂
take good care
I bet a little Halloween chocolate might make you feel better….?
Take care & feel better soon!!!
I know how you feel. I’ve been there so many times and felt like I was dying.
I always found a hot pack to your chest and back helps a little. Bronchitis is the worst. Take care and I’ll check back soon! 🙂
I hope none of your medicines have corn syrup/frustose/corn powder, corn based anythiong to make you worse. Feel better.
Hang in there lady; we know you can beat this if you don’t give up. We need you back here posting.
THAT BITES. Just sleep, it will get better soon…(I haven’t been able to leave a comment for a couple of days now. Don’t think I forgot about you!!) If the antibiotics don’t work, I’ll lure the 1000 man sitting on your chest with a trough of twinkies and ice cream…
🙂
OMG…I just walked into your “store!” I almost urinated here on the chair!!!! The Greg stuff, the Evelyn stuff–Brilliant!
You have the same thing as my daughter. It’s a real bad one this year.
hot tea and a hot showers help somewhat.
Get better soon.
Wish I had something witty to say to brighten your day, but alas, I do not. So, I’ll just say that I have you in my thoughts and prayers. Hope you’re much better soon.

Laurie: I know how fucking funny is the Greg & Ev merchandise? I love that shit!
SomeGirl:

Paisley: Not smoking is IMPOSSIBLE.
Jodi: yes please, delivery of some home made soup is JUST what I need.
***Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I’ve been unconscious for two days in a row, which has helped alot. I am on day 4 of the antibiotics and have been drinking tons of water. I miss my peeps. I will be checking out all YOUR blogs tonight. ***
…and don’t worry Leslie, the medications are safe for me, not like that last time… 🙂
thank goodness!
Wow, sounds serious….and seriously painful. Do you still have a voice or it simple just being weak at the moment? When I get bad coughs, I go through an initial period where it sounds kinda cool (almost sexy), then it disappears and I’m the freak with lotsa hand motions trying to get a point across…and then I just sound like a man. LOLs!
Joanne:
I am at the sound like a MAN stage.
Sounding sexy ended on Sunday when this all started with a sore throat.
I feel MUCH better.
Leslie:
No shit! whew!
Sorry you’re not feeling well. I was hoping for a full body x-ray though 🙂
SO glad you’re starting to feel better, and wanted to say thank you! I’m flattered to be moved up to your every day reads 🙂
And enjoy the “sound like a man” stage. I had a male friend in college that said a gravely voice was probably the sexiest thing ever on a woman.
Hello Meleah,
I heard you were sick with respiratory illness, and just wanted to stop by and wish you well.
I hope you’re feeling better, an will be back to 100% real soon.
Get well soon!
Jose
Exposed:
You have a GREAT blog. You write a fantastic spin on the whole dating scene. I truly enjoy reading your blog. In fact, I cant get enough…. I had to move you up on my list!
Im so happy to finally FEEL better (almost a week later) .
But, I cant wait to get my REGULAR voice back, that was raspy enough, I really sound like a DOOD.
Jose:
Aww… thanks DAZD is great.
Rolando:
Ha ha ha ha
Get well soon! Daz’d sent me!
Thanks V-DUB.
Dazd is one of my best blog buddies.
CRAP! I hope you’re feeling better very, very soon!
Boy is this bringing back memories. I have had exactly that nearly every year of my life up until about 3 or 4 years ago. Just susceptible to it. It’s in the family, and it didn’t help being around my step father who smoked four packs of Pall Malls when I was growing up. Good luck to you, meleah! I’ve had it for as many as 9 or 10 weeks, and then after beginning to feel better, relapse for another six. No pneumonia, though. Thankfully!
I am just glad I caught in time time and that its only lasting a weekish. I cant with being sick for a whole month again. Ugh.
Hey, I hope you’re feeling better today. WATER and sleep and Vit C. ALL THE TIME. You’ll kick it out of you. xoxo
xxoo
🙂
Hope you get to feeling better soon. Get plenty of sleep if you can…will check back on you later. 🙂
That totally sucks!!!! Don’t take any chances and get loads of rest. These things are very dangerous I tell you!!!
