Running a fever. Dizzy. migraine headache. I think i have flu. All my joints are aching. Pain when i move my eyes. And am TOTALLY ALONE here with my two little boys. After this post i will just take medicine and lie down. I hope and pray that i will not fall asleep. I have my two boys to watch. I could not call for help. Everybody in this house is out - working. The women are asleep and have their own troubles to take care of. And when they wake up, they will probably go out to the market or visit someone. This is so pathetic a case. Sad, but true. And it is so bad to be away from your own country and your family and then you get sick, but could not rest because you have a BIG responsibility. I feel sick, sad, and mad. I have no choice. This is life. Or should this be? I got to lie down now...

what you should do now is to have the rest and pull yourself out the sick as soon as possible, don't think something else. you have the value of living in the world, so you should live, but not lie down.

All I can say is that you have to get to a doctor as soon as possible. Do whatever it takes to get there. Your health has to come first. Your boys need a healthy mother.

My husband is in the province and he is all alone there. he has been under the weather for 3 days now. I just keep calling him reminding him to drink his medicines, drink lots of liquid and rest.I think you should do the same. Go rest. The more you think of the situation you are in will just make you more depressed.

You should get yourself lying or you'll lose yourself. Sometimes, it's not that bad to take a full rest.

I think you have a more home sickness than the real problem. If you are feeling so troubling your body why do not you consult the doctor on phone. Do not you know any home remedy. There are so many home remedies about these generalize troubles. Try honey in hot milk and have dome as preen for getting rid of pain and have a strong will power to overcome all this. Just dial up to your family and know about the home remedy and carry one. Every thing will be alright.

I see you wrote this 20 hours ago. Hopefully, you have gotten some medication, drank plenty of liquids and got some needed rest. My husband probably has the flu, as well. He worked Tuesday so sick he could hardly hold his head up and he said he just wanted to lie down and go to sleep. Today, after medicating himself for two days, he feels much better, but far from being well. But he has taken lots of TheraFlu, eat Vitamin C and drank plenty of orange juice.

Hey there friend, I got sick last week (trangkaso is the term in our native tongue right?). my advice is you do drink a lot of water and take in a lot of Vitamin C double the dosage, and also drink a lot of pineapple juice and give the kids more vitamin c too to strengthen their immune system so they would no be infected with your ailment.
I hope you get well soon my friend.

Hi pinks, i really pitty on you my friend. If it happens were near, ill come and look for your babies so you can sleep and rest.
Just drink plenty of water, take courage because of your kids. Just leave the chores undone, when your fine then get back of it. Do not think of anything.
And you know very well, from whom you can get perfect panacea. His always available of helping you.
Your sons need you very much, they are the reason why you should not get weak and and give up, fight for that physical sickness, destress yourself from thinking your alone and far from your family. Your son's are with you.
I understand your situation is not easy but i know you can pass all these very soon.
Get well soon and God bless you always.

Take Vitamin C 1000 mg everyday, that will boost your immune system. And one more advice, the more you think you are sick or feel sick, then you will. Calm your mind and think you are getting better / healthy. Always think positively. Take it easy, live one day at a time. There are people who loves you and need you, you are not alone. There's always a blue sky waiting tomorrow. :)
