The Unofficial Sickness Topic Options

[Oscar]

Are you sick? Got a cold, pink eye, strep, malaria, mad cow disease, the flu, nausea, headache, etc.?
Then you're in the right place! Discuss how you're feeling or come help out someone who's feeling sick.

I'm not doing too good right now. I'm guessing I have a strong cold. I'm feeling like about a 5 out of 10 on the illness scale. My ear hurts a lot for some reason, it's weird. *cough* Oh and I can't forget my lovely mucus-filled coughs...=/

I think I could write a book about all the stuff that's wrong with me. **laughs cynically**

Being ill is no fun. Thankfully, I haven't had a cold in months, which has got to be some sort of a record for me. I got carsick yesterday though. >< That wasn't fun.

But on the topic of illnesses-that-won't-go-away-no-matter-what-you-do, all of my problems stem from two things: weird hormone imbalances that struck me at puberty and a very serious ear/head injury I sustained at the hands of a pediatrician when I was five years old. I'm half deaf thanks to that. >< (And my parents sued that doctor for medical malpractice. Dad and Mom won the suit.)

My father had sleep apnea, but never got treated for it, and one of my brothers has it, too. He's on treatment for it now, but before he got treatment, his snoring was so frightening, and he never slept well. =/ I hope I never get that! (My brother is kind of, erm, obese, so as long as I stay thin, I might avoid it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lalaexdee.gif) Dad wasn't obese, but he was really tall and big, while I'm not.)
