Title: Viral Infection...
Post by: goofynina on March 27, 2007, 12:41:55 AM
I believe what i have may be more serious than just stress, i do not know if i am just freaking out or what but i have to admit, i am so very scared.  I've had the runs (sorry) for about a week, it wasnt so bad at first, just very loose (sorry) now it is just water, hubby went to the store to go buy me some Gatorade (thank you Karol)  and i am going to try and eat some McD's fries, i do not want to eat i am going to make myself eat just to get the potassium and the sodium in me.  I will come and update you all tomorrow as to how i am feeling.  I just wanted to let you know just in case, well, you know (sigh)  but i do know this, I LOVE YOU ALL........  :grouphug;

Sorry to hear you are unwell Goofynina. The trouble is when we are not feeling well, we, as kidney disease patients start imagining all sorts of things in the belief that it must be kidney related. I'm sure it's probably just a stomach bug that everyone gets from time to time. Don't worry you'll soon be fine again. And Goofynina,  WE LOVE YOU TOO :grouphug;

 :'(   You guys just dont know what you do to me.  (happy tears) ;)   Well, last night (around midnight) hubby bought me some Gatorade and some French Fries along with some Immodium, i got down 1/2 the fries but i got down the whole 32 oz. of Gatorade :P  I am feeling a little better this morning, no rushes to the bathroom during the night so that was good.  Thank you so much for all your concern, you truly are my best support group.  Love to you alll.....  :grouphug;

 (By the way, usually fried foods are a bad idea if you've already got the runs.)

Glad to hear you are feeling better,  :clap;  I get those runs from time to time, I wonder if its related to the dialysis.

Thank you all so very much, i am hoping whatever i had has taken it's course and i am hopefully at the end of it all.  I was able to eat a cup o' soup at my sisters which is the most i've eaten since Saturday night, but it has stayed in, woohooo, i hope that immodium doesnt ware off and i have a surprise attack of the shits, oh damn, i better take 2 more before that happens :P  Just wanted to let you all know that i think i am going to make it after all (Thank God) ;)   

XOXOXO
Much love and kisses to you all, YAY, I FEEL BETTER   :2thumbsup;

Karol suggested gatorade people, so far everyone who has been drinking gatorade seem to be getting better quicker. Watch your fluid intake if you must.

Maybe Karol has stock in gatorade.. >:D what do you think??  :)

Good for you, Goofynina! Now I must have gotten the bug from you, Amanda! I feel icky...

Aww Amanda and Anja,  i hope the both of you are feeling better today.  I believe Gatorade had a big factor in me getting better so it wouldnt hurt to try it ;)  And if your having problem with (the runs) ;)   Immodium A.D.  is the best.   :2thumbsup;
Take care you two, Godspeed.  :cuddle;

Thanks, Goofynina, this "bug" has been holding on for a week now and I am tired of it !  Tthink I will be over it, yes, tomorrow would be a good day for that I think, yup, tomorrow is the day to be better... I said TOMORROW is the day!!!  *trying to be as encouraging as possible, can you tell????    :beer1;   (that reminds me, I took your advice and have been drinking Gatorade,ooh, it is salty... but kept me hydrated)

Hope you are over your ailment too, Amanda from OZ !  Know March was a tough month for you in many ways!   :cuddle;

Thanks both you!!

I don't think i had a virus i just felt like vomitting all the time! and couldn't get out of bed! I think it was because i wasn't dialysing well because of my crappy arm!

I feel much better now.

Hope you guys are feeling better too.

Amanda
xxoo
