Uggggggggghhhh


I woke up at 3AM, sicker than can be


I can't keep anything down - I need to eat something, or drink something - I don't want to get sicker, but I really can't keep anything down that I usually eat/drink when I have the flu


I feel really dizzy when I stand up, getting on the computer was a huge task in itself. At least I was able to get the day off.

Any help?

It doesn't really sound like the flu to me...Can you get someone to get you a sports drink or something with some salt and electrolytes in it, and just take a small sip or two as you can?

Make sure you are drinking plenty of water Kenz. Even if you don't keep it down your body is absorbing atleast some of it. You don't want to get dehydrated!
Feel better soon!

I second the saltines/gatorade recommendation. If you can't get any gatorade for awhile, do you have any ginger ale or coke around? Small sips of that will help.

Awww, thanks everyone


I don't have any saltines or gatoraide til John gets home


I tried eating some dry toast, but apparently, that didn't help at all.

I'm gonna try to sleep til he gets home, maybe a shower will help


Thanks for all the suggestions everyone, you're all so great

Tried that.... Harley came up to me when I was on the couch to cuddle.... apparently he had JUST been in the litter box.... and was not smelling to pleasent. Nice try Harley, but thanks anyways.

This was me:



And Harley was laughing inside as he took my nice warm spot on the couch.

Cats!
