Sick again, 8 days before plane trip

[BelleMom]

Dear friends,

I really need some cheering up. Today, as I was taking the kids to see the Harry Potter movie, I started to feel weird, with the same kind of symptons I had 2 months ago, when I had the kidney/urinary infection. I decided to endure the whole 152 minutes and the long, long ride back home. That was not the smartest thing to do. The infection came back with a vengeance. The other time I felt only generally bad, extremely tired. This time around I also feel pain.
As I already knew what I had, I could start taking medicine really quick. I called my doc and she advised me to spend 15 days on antibiotics. I have to wait 48 hours to see if the thing gets better with the treatment. I asked my doc if this would eliminate travelling on the next week or so. She believes that if I get better with the antibiotics, i will be all right travelling. But she made me promise to take it easy, avoid carrying weight, planning down time, etc...Ah, and no DATW, well, only non-alcooholic beverages.
I am feeling really low today, after that. Well, at least this didn't happen during my trip. I still have some time to get better. Anyway, pixie dust is very welcome.

Oh Livia, I'm so sorry.

Sending loads and loads of ~*~pixie dust~*~ your way...

Look at it this way, at least you have time to work on it and hopefully it will get better. I'm hoping and praying for you Livia.

I've been living in a vacuum for the last 2 weeks~~~trying soooooooo hard to not get sick! My DS has been sick off and on, and my mom is sick, and everyone at my kid's schools are sick.....but so far :::knocking on wood::: I'm okay.

 

[Patrick IL.]

Oh Livia- hurry and get well- I am very much looking forward to meeting you

 

[Patinmn]

Lots of Pixie Dust coming your way!!!!

 

[tammyh-oregon]

Just keep telling yourself that you have to feel better for the DIS-CON. And just let all the pixie dust coming your way to its stuff.

Hope you get to feeling better real soon.

 

[BelleMom]

Hi folks! Thank you for the good wishes and thank you for the pixie dust. I am doing all that I can: resting and drinking liters and liters of water, taking antibiotics, and simply praying. I have been under such a stress during this year, overworking so scandalously, that getting sick actually comes as no surprise. I am pretty sure that if I can stay away for a spell, stress-free, i will become in much better shape.

 

[DumboOrBust]

Livia, I'm so sorry you're sick again. I've been PMing back and forth with you tonight, and I didn't even know. I'm going to send you some special Okie Pixie Dust.

Liv, so sorry to hear you are not feeling well. It sounds like you are doing everything the doctor ordered. We need you well for Dis-Con. ANd you definately need a vacation!

Marsha, Not you too! You mus tbe well, otherwise who will we have to stalk!

Last year (september) I was sick the last day and a half at Disney. It was awful! Especially traveling! Well, I just got over 10 days of antibiotics, second round since September! It should be a rule that sick people are not allowed to come to work to infect others!!!!!!

Okay everybody, it is time to start wearing masks to keep all the icky germs away!!! LOL

Stay healthy everybody, *~*~*~*~*~Pixie Dust*~*~*~*~*~*~ to Liv and Marsha!

 

[BelleMom]

Marsha: this antibiotics is really icky! it really turns my stomach upside down -- no need for a rollercoaster here, see! I will also have to stop taking my iron supplement for 2 week -- the combination of the two equates a mad-teacup ride. I hope you find medicine that agree more with you. You also must be in top conditions for the mad DisCon ride!

glo, dayna, dvc: I know I will get better. There are so many nice people here wishing me good that I can only get better. When I posted, i was feeling really down, but all of you, nice Dis people, are helping me to get my natural optmism in top shape.

Oh, Livia, I'm so sorry you're feeling so bad. Please, rest and drink lots and lots of water. I was going to suggest the cranberry juice, too. There is no way you're missing this trip. Just think how much better you'll feel once you get to WDW. It works wonders! So, rest, rest, rest, and drink, drink, drink! Here's some special pixie dust and hugs for you, too.
And, Marsha, I hope you're feeling better, too. Hugs and pixie dust for you, too. We can't have either one of you under the weather for this convention. Both of you take it easy and follow the doctor's orders!

 

[disneycub]

Hey, c'mon you guys! Both of you get better! Sending a whole mountain-full of pixie dust your way.......

 

[Snowwark]

Livia, I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling so rotten. Please, please feel better soon! Sending good thoughts and lots of ~~~~PIXIE DUST~~~~ your way.

Marsha, I hope you feel better soon too! Both of you, rest up and get well!

Livia & Marsha, I'm sending lots of get well
~*~*~*~*~*~*PIXIE DUST~*~*~*~*~*~
your way! I'm looking forward to seeing both of you at DIS-CON!

 

[bashful64]

I'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well Livia. I hope the antibiotics kick in and you are feeling better in no time. Sending loads of get well PD.

 

[Smee]

Livia,
I am so sorry to hear this. Start the antibiotics right away, (I'm sure that you already have)
and I bet you are feeling better within 3 days. Just don't stop taking them!!! Finish them all!!
Drink LOTS of water, have NO caffeine (sorry), and if it's a Sulfa med. make sure that you're
"covered up" if out in the sun (even walking around WDW, wear a hat and long sleeves and pants - not like Barry!).
Oh wow, you've GOT to be there!!!!!!!
You just HAVE to!!!!!!!
Take some relaxing tapes with you for the flight over, and I'll SEE YOU THERE!!!!!
Take extra good care,
Corinne

 

[FairyGodfriend]

Livia I'm sorry that you aren't feeling well, sending {{{pixie dust}}} to help you cheer up. Hope you are feeling better today

 

[BelleMom]

Hey folks!

I stayed home resting, drinking loads of water today, and playing RollerCoaster Tycoon, the game. I feel better. Still got some pain, but no fever, and overall I know I am much better. The antibiotics should be in full effect tomorrow. I will have to bring the medicine to WDW and take it religiously. As this is the return of a previous infection, my doc wants me to take 2 full weeks of medicine.
The hardest thing is to remember to drink enough water. Whenever I am busy, like last week, I simply forget to drink water.

Thank you for the pixie dust. It is really helping a lot!!! I am sure I will be there
