Oh my! I'm as sick as ever. I've taken my temperature last night and it's a whopping 39.9 degrees. That's hot! So I took my meds and covered myself in layers of blankets and eventually it dropped down. I'm gonna eat some fruits later to regain my strength. How bout you guys? What do you do when you get the fever?

Also don't forget to drink lots of water too. Sometimes that water intake is neglected and many usually become more dehydrated which makes their condition worse than ever. So maintain a good dose of that water intake and do observe if your bowel movement would changed too.

You poor thing!I was sick too not long ago and my fever was as high as that.I kept getting the chills..my body was burning up but i was covered in goosebumps..not a good feeling.Definately eat some fruit when you can and take some extra vitamins too.If you like spicy foods or even just garlic,these are also good for battling the viruses. Hope you are better soon:)

Ok, I just got back from the hospital and it turns out I have 2 sources for my fever.. Viral ear infection and UTI. Can you believe it? :(

Oh my,you will be recovering for some time but it's good that you went to the hospital instead of just trying to deal with it at home and just getting worse.Suffering with a UTI alone is horrendous so i can't even imagine how you are feeling.Hope you have family looking after you.Thanks heaps for best response,i really appreciate it!
