Update 2

Still sick. Doctors say that I'm doing as well as can be expected and that I have accept that it will take a while to recover. Still burning cough, temps down some but not normal, unrelenting nausea, lost 22 pounds since last Tuesday, hard way to do it. I have kept down food today so I'm hopeful. My stomach has shrunk, though. I'm still missing work. Not able to write or do much of anything. Anyway, that's it. Just have to endure until I beat this.

Yikes. This is your priority for now -- take care of yourself, rest, drink plenty of fluids, and get better.

Oh Tech!That's awful! Thanks for taking the energy to post -- with that kind of news I know you don't have much energy to spare! Like Jean said, just keep doing those things you know you have to do to take care of yourself. Now that you can tolerate some food, I have hopes that you'll start feeling a little better.

Geez, Tech. I'm sure you already know to keep sipping fluids..water, non-acidic juices, etc. You've been through this enough times to know the drill. I wish I had some amazing advice for you that you and your doctor haven't thought of yet that would solve everything.

Hey, marijuana is supposed to help with nausea and it will also increase your appetite. Maybe you could get a prescription for that! Okay, okay it's not amazing advice..I'll keep working on it and praying for you.
