Sinus Infection, 100.5 degree fever - time to drink, no? (1 Viewer)

[otb_lifer]

anybody?

been wrasslin' this beast for about 10 days.  temperature shot up today, ears are clogged, left nostril plugged like an Aqueduct terlit ... head feels like  it's aswim in a huge tub of Elmer's Glue - awesome stuff. 

but the gf and daughter are out to a b'day party 'til 9 - and im'ma growin' restless 

pros: 

it drops the body temperature.

it causes frequent urination (ergo flushing bastid toxins).

will knock me out to sleep (been a ##### the past week gagging and snot-rocketing nostrils all night to unclog).

the booze facilitates tobacco smoke inhalation with nary a problem (hurts like hell without).

i will drunken text a fine old ex of mine who is hitting the big Four Oh today. 

cons:



TIA for any assistance via personal experience in emerging unscathed, or near death convulsing episodes precipitated by runaway fever.

This is why I have a reserve of vicodin in our zombie apocalypse kit.  Mix it with a few beers or whiskey and mother nature will take care of the rest

Never take medical advice from something that bleeds for 7 days and doesn't die

The rule in my house growing was if it wasn't above 102 you just pushed through. I have seen my husband sweat out 101 at work  and even my 3 year old daughter powered through 101 last year.

Tell your husband to leave his sick ### with a fever at home so he doesn't infect the rest of us. TIA.

Most of the time he works by himselfand outside.

WHOA! That vid is giving me DXM flange-flashbacks!    Which...with all the meds (and what-not) you on right now...may be understandable to ya?

But thanks, I did not know that. Thus, I will soon be working on a new tribute band to Open Orifice...just to keep the chain alive.
