I feel really bad - really scared

[sillygirl]

My stomach is hurting now. My throat is also kind of hurting, but not like a sore throat hurt - more like an acidic burn. I am scared I am getting the sv my co-worker had. I was first exposed to it Tuesday, but she hasn't felt good all week until today. I feel really hot (which is unusual to me). I took my temperature and one time it was a little high, then another it was normal. I feel like I can't swallow. know I am having a panic attack now. Do you think I am getting sick? Please help - I am really scared!!

Oh, I am sorry you are feeling so bad. My guess is that you are just making yourself feel sick with worry. I know how you feel, we all hate the waiting. Try and relax and take your mind off it.

Hope you feel better soon.

I feel a little better. I ate a little bit of dinner and at first I was a little nervous, but I forced myself to eat it anyway. I don't feel 100%, but I do feel better. I think I am just worrying about tomorrow. My friend from work still wants to go out tomorrow. She is 100% better now, but I am still a little nervous. I would hate to cancel with her, but we are also having an open house tomorrow so I really need to do a lot of cleaning. I can't do it tonight because everyone else is already asleep, so I am going to have to do it in the morning. She did suggest taking seperate cars because she is coming straight from looking at a house, so that put my mind at ease a little bit. I don't know what to do! I guess I will just see what happens tomorrow.

I woke up at 5:30 when my husband went to work and my stomach hurt. I had to go to the bathroom, and it wasn't quite d*, but it was looser than I would have liked. Nothing has happened since then except my nose is all stuffy and runny. I may either be having bad allergies or a bit of a cold. My throat was hurting for the last couple of days. I haven't eaten anything yet, and I plan on just taking it kind of easy today.


I still feel uneasy about going out today. Plus the weather is really bad - cold and rainy. I don't think I am going to go because I don't feel very good. My husband doesn't want me to go either. It's kind of strange - he gets these weird feelings and usually they are right. Like one time he had this feeling that I was going to get in a car wreck, but didn't tell me about it. I did get in an accident that day, and ever since he told me about his feelings, I always trust his instincts. Better safe than sorry! He said he doesn't know why he doesn't want me to go, but something is telling him that I shouldn't. It could be nothing, but it kind of confirms my own feelings (about getting sick) so I think I will stay home and relax.
