    I don't have vampire eyes. My temperature went up to 100.5 last night, which is a raging fever for me. Tylenol brought it right down. Stomach is a bit better today, but I am still aching all over and my chest/glands feel a bit weird. No real coughing or sneezing. Woke up with a temp. of 99.
    Just called doctor and they have no openings until Monday! I guess I'll ride it out. Taking one extra strength Tylenol brings down the low grade fever and makes me feel better. I was able to eat breakfast and (most importantly) drink a cup of coffee. Of course, on the front of the Boston Globe was a story about how asthmatics are the most prone to complications of H1N1. I guess I need to stop obsessing, since I am not sure I have it and I am not having trouble breathing.

    If you really think you have H1N1, you'd better get to the doctor before Monday. Tamiful doesn't do a thing after the first, what? 48 hours?

    My grandson had H1N1 but no respiratory or GI symptoms at all. Just high fever and lethargic, and then the strep bacteria took advantage and infiltrated his blood and he ended up in the hospital. But still no symptoms other than a high fever and lethargy. I guess the mileage varies according to the person.

    I have to stop thinking I have H1N1. My fever has stayed down so far today, after the initial Tylenol dose. I will go to a mini clinic if it gets worse. Most of what I have is how I always feel when I get sick; the stomach stuff is what is unusual.
    I just wish I was able to go out with my son while he is here!

    I forgot what thread that was in.

    The essence is that jumping up and down in place provides sufficient impact exercise for bone health.

    Does running 16-1/2 miles count, or do I have to do 50 jumps too?

    I suppose most everyone's had their share of drama the past few days, but I think I got someone else's share too. Anyway, we just finished Christmas dinner, and it was delicious. Pecan pie's cooling - eggbeater's in the freezer for the whipped cream -
