This weekend could seriously not get any better if I jumped off a 5 story building

Not only did I have to have all of the fluid removed from my band Friday morning but I started running a fever about eleven o'clock Friday night and for almost 24 hours it wouldn't drop below 103(even with tylenol and advil) I went to our local Urgent Care and the doctor determined I have flipping swine flu.
She was really great though she broke the news to me pretty nicely. She said I am really, really sorry to tell you this but you have the big flu that is affecting people of your age group. She then said I know it's really scary but please try not to be scared. So they put me on Tamiflu and sent me home.

I know we are suppose to try and be positive on this forum but I really think I have earned the right to say life this week is sucking big time

Hey BB
I am doing good. This morning I hit 108 gone...wooo hooo. I am sooo happy.
I have 28 on my scale to the doctors goal...I imagine we will be a bit ditterent so I am thinking maybe 32 or so.
I am amazed....I can tell I can eat more, but I am ok. need to kick up the exercise, but my life is sooo chaotic right now it isn't happening right now.
all is good.

No you aren't far from me.  It is about 45 minutes to an hour away.

I'd just try to get back to the basics.  Protein, Water, and Exercise. 

If you do this for just one day, you are going to feel so much better.
Gain happens.  We just have to get control of it before it gets control of us.
Maybe talk to your NUT at the Dr. office.

I don't know anything about Dr. Smith, but I really like Dr. Wheeler.
