ORIGINAL: LadyPact Glad you are feeling better, RS. While you were under the weather, did you happen to breathe on New Mod? The way the forums are going to sh^t, New Mod must be feeling poorly, too. It very well could be the mod is sick. Whatever I had is something that is going around. And it hits you like a truck... 24 hours and you are flat on your ass in bed fighting for your life. I lost over 11 lbs. My friend Mike, a chemist on the other side of Florida got the same thing. Like me, they put him on amox, didn't work. Put him on Z-pak, didn't work. Finally put him on levofloxacin and he responded. Today was his first day back to work too, but he is still using the steroid inhaler and taking prednisone. He was down and out for 9 weeks, so sick he couldn't get out of bed. He lives alone, had to piss in a bucket. He only ate when people brought him something. He was so worried at one point, he called friends & family to make peace and thank them for their friendship because he wasn't sure he was going to live through it. I can tell you that if the mod has what I had, his only thoughts are on survival and he is fighting for his next breath, taking steam showers, drinking hot tea w/whiskey & honey, sucking down cough syrup, using a steroid inhaler, taking steroid pills (prednisone), nose spray, Tylenol, codeine and Night Time Cold Pills. Until Wed of last week, my whole world was reduced to trying to breath, taking medicine and finding something on cable I haven't already seen before. At one point, I was constantly coughing so bad I went 5 days without REM sleep. I would sleep 2 or 3 times a day for 20 minutes and that was it. When I did feel better, I felt lost . . . like I had forgotten the meaning of life and what my purpose was. Then the meds wore off, my ribs screamed in pain and it was back to bed again. So yes, if the mod is sick, they are probably down for the count. Hell, I was only able to work for 5 hours today and it kicked my ass. I am exhausted, coughing again and have a sore throat now. I am going to the doctor first thing tomorrow morning at 8am and get some of that levofloxacin that worked for my friend. I refuse to let this shit take another day of my life from me.
