Mmm… likely food poisoning

So, I think I may have some kind of food poisoning.

About an hour ago I started feeling weak and nauseous, and now I am shivering and have a temperature of 96.5ºF. I still feel nauseous, my tummy is gurgling a bit, and I seem to be developing a headache.

I’ve turned my space heater all the way up (it’s 80º in my room right now) but I can’t stop shaking. No fun. I think I am going to take a hot shower and try to fall asleep.

EDIT (2008-02-11 8:13 AM): I now have a fever of 100.9º and a splitting headache. I’ve let my professor know that I’m not going to be at class, and plan to venture out today only to go to Weshop around noon, to pick up some orange juice, ginger ale, and Motrin. Oh, and with the windchill, it’s 4º outside.

    Ugggh. That sounds a lot like what I had last week or two weeks ago or whatever. Not fun at all :( Feel better!

    PS. Getting back from the gym this morning, I still didn’t feel like I needed my jacket. Oh, the gym…

    Feel better!

    Meh, chicken sandwich at the dining hall. I hear someone else got sick last night after eating one, too, so I think I can narrow it down to that.

    I still have a slight fever and a nasty headache, but I’m eating food again and am replacing lost fluids (plus I slept all day) so I’m getting back on track!

    And Mad: wear your coat!
