Good god, so we're looking at ANOTHER booster. I mean, yeah, bring it on, but will this NEVER END?!?!?

Been taking care of Brandon who just got his vasectomy and I'm cramping to all hell.

I made the mistake of getting my Moderna booster and flu shot together. Have been suffering through a flu-like haze for the past couple days. Chills, aches, sweats, migraine, dizziness, fatigue, weakness, just general inability to get comfortable and sleep along the injection arm being entirely sore and the lymph node in my arm pit also overwhelmingly painful.

Ugh . . .

The notes I got show her diagnosis as prediabetes. . . . I mean, I know I need to watch it and exercise more and eat right, but what?

I asked her to prescribe me some stretches, and she says not until after I've had bloodwork done.


That is discrimination, I would report it and ask for a second opinion.

I've been consuming Coldeeze whenever I feel that slight bit of sore throat. Every time I wake up with one I worry that it could be the beginnings of COVID.

The fucking news is ridiculous. And I'm going crazy from anxiety attacks left and right.

I'm more worried that if I did end up getting anything, it would spread to my mom, who's over 70 and with a compromised immune system.

So this is a new one... picked up a rapid-onset cold on Saturday and today my ear is stuffed up. It kinda started like swimmer's ear and upgraded to full "I've just been on a plane and now my ears won't pop" level of annoyance. So far it is just my left ear, thankfully... but it is impacting my work for sure since it's still hard to focus when I can only hear in one ear.

Been sick for much of this week, but it hit hard enough to finally keep me home the last couple days. I still went out to do a four-hour shift at the park, but my head was throbbing and felt so freaking heavy and then I was coughing all night. They wouldn't let me go home early since we were so short-staffed.

It ended up being hand-foot-and-mouth. I've been sick every frigging week of this month and haven't had a full week of work at all in August.

I had that swollen throat and uvula, then the disease for a week (had to give away all of my shifts at my second job) and then I ended up with a cold from working a convention for one of my jobs all of last weekend.

To answer your question, Elara, as far as I know I've never been tested for allergies. Going to the dermatologist this coming week, though, for a follow-up on my disease.

I can imagine that working where you do, you are exposed to a plethora of germs. My throat has been scratchy as well, though... I think it is something pollen or allergen related.

The rash, I dunno. Have you ever had an allergy test?

I've been suffering from a swollen throat off and on for weeks. Went to the doctor right away and all they could do was tell me it wasn't strep and to just gargle salt water. It subsided, but it's back again.

I've also developed this really bad rash in my upper thighs that I'm not sure is an allergy to our soap or my sweat or what. Hurts like a motherfucker just to try to walk or sit or lay down sideways and move my legs. Uuuuugh...

Christ, I've been munching on Coldeeze like they were candy. There's SO MUCH open mouthed coughing and uncovered sneezing right near me EVERY DAMN DAY. It's ridiculous. Every time I feel that little tingle in my throat or pain when I sneeze, I feel that anxiety that I'm going to get sick AGAIN.

Had a sore throat last weekend, allergies since late April. This dogwood doesn't take any prisoners.

And I'm sick for the second time in a month. Had to take three days off from my day job this week, two of them unpaid since I don't have enough PPL.

Been trying to shake a cold for more than a week now, but the cold wind and our drafty room aren't helping.

I would kill for rainy weather around here. Jesus, our air is either thick with humidity, smog, or smoke at any given moment this summer. We need it to clear out so bad.

Wow, I just called in today and yesterday myself.

Rainy weather's been killing me!

Called out for the second day in a row because I have a cold. I must have caught something while at the Oddwood show on Friday night, because I rarely catch anything at work any more since my immune system is now built to take them.

I keep having these half-colds, wherein I just feel like I'm about to get sick, but it doesn't take full hold. So I'm just at work feeling like shit all the time.
