  1. Doesn't sound like too big a deal. Sounds like something I would say if I was nervous or felt awkward. I wouldn't ask her about it, she might be embaressed about it. If it's a chronic thing, you might want to discuss it. If it's a one time thing, let it slide, my friend.
  2. Not much you can do except be supportive. I've seen cases like this quite a bit in my life, and the only thing that really helps is talking to a therapist.
  3. Everyone deserves special treatment from their significant others, man or woman. YMMV of course.
  4. Thanks Proactive. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles. With my own health, I'm a lot like I am when it comes to animal health: if they're sick, FIND OUT WHAT'S WRONG AND FIX IT! It alarms me that the first doctor didn't even FEEL my lymphs, just threw antibiotics at me. When I went back to him because it was 2 weeks later and I didn't feel well, he felt my lymphs, said maybe it's mono and sent me for a cbc and monotest. The last doc I saw about the test results was more interested in diagnosing. She wants to "dig deeper". If this doesn't clear up in the next week or so, I will take matters into my own hands and demand some more tests, an endoscopy sounds like a good plan. When I can't even swallow some water to take some pain meds because it hurts so bad, it sucks.
  5. That was like, THE longest run-on sentence I've ever seen! Tip: don't grab a boob.
  6. PALPATE! I knew palpitate sounded wrongs (palpitate would be a funny heart beat). They didn't palpate, which I did find odd. Yes, a cbc was done along with the mono test (aptly named Monotest). No test for strep. My throat was looked at. It was a bit red to begin with, but the subsequent visits both docs said my throat looks clear. It just hurts to swallow, I think something is swollen underneath subcutaneously. And I do suspect the oreos are PROLONGING my sickness I'm just kidding of course, but they do give me a little bit of happiness. The pierogi and veggies I had for dinner today were MUCHO better. I'm a nutritional nut too. Don't get me started on animal nutrition
  7. Well exactly. I'm just confused. I thought it was an infection, not bacterial since the antibiotics didn't nip it in the butt, so viral. So I thought mono because of the massive amount of sleep I've been getting. I'd check for splenomegaly, but I haven't learned the fine art of self-palpitation But then I get thrown for a loop when she said that my body is not battling an infection. Ok, fine, I know lymphs can stay swollen for quite some time after infection, but I SHOULD be feeling better right? My throat hurts more today than it has since getting sick, and I still feel woozy if I'm up and about longer than 10 minutes and I'm still getting my 16 hours of sleep a day (or more). The oreos make me feel better though
  8. I'm not looking for a diagnosis here, I'm leaving that for the doctor. I just need to vent some of my worrying. I've been sick for two weeks, swollen lymphs, sore throat, blah feeling, sleeping for 16 hours a day. I thought it was mono, CERTAIN it was mono. I was on a course of antibiotics that didn't help at all. I've had mono before, when I was 16, so I didn't think I could get again, but like the doctor said "stranger things have happened". The mono test came back today negative. The doc thinks it might be a thyroid problem, but I was tested not too long ago. She's ordered a few tests other than thyroid to rule other stuff out as well. The blood panel showed it's not an infection, viral or bacterial. So what the heck can it be? She gave me a corticosteroid for my nose and said wait till the results are back from the lab. I'm worried now. I wasn't, but I am now. I don't know what I'm dealing with. My mom is scared too, she said for me to just admit myself to the hospital to find out quicker what's wrong with me. I can't do that, I have my animals here I have to take care of. She wants to fly out to take care of me. Right now I can take care of myself, so I told her it's not necessary. I'm supposed to start school this week, but what if I'm still this sick for awhile yet? Good vibes? Anyone? PLEASE?
  9. Yeah serious. One good thing that happened. I told my good friend, the same one I mentioned in my original post, about my cell phone, and he agreed to pay for it with his credit card so that I don't get cut off. I just have to give him the money that I DO have. What an angel
  10. AND!!! I've been planning on going camping this weekend (long weekend) all month, and now I doubt I'll be able to go. Mostly because I'm sick, but also because I'm broke. AND!! My cell phone is being cut off tomorrow EVEN THOUGH I made a payment today. ARG!!!
  11. I really just need to vent about how crummy the past couple of weeks have been. Started talking to the ex again. Have no idea what the hell he wants. I'm not losing sleep over it, I just want a clear idea as to what is going on in his head. A good friend of mine professed his love for me. We've fooled around a bit, and hung out lots, he's asked me to be his girlfriend, but I'm so not wanting a relationship at this point, but I don't want to lose him as a friend either. I've been sick for two weeks. I'm sleeping for 16 hours a day, haven't been to work, haven't done much else. The general concensus amongst my friends is that I have mono. But I've had it before, it should be unlikely to get it again. Back to the doctor I go today. Found out yesterday I'm not allowed back in school for THREE YEARS because my marks were a bit on the low side. I wanted to appeal, only to find out appeals were done in JULY, I "should have gotten a letter in June explaining the process". Um, no, I didn't get a letter. "Well, that's not the university's problem". I asked if I can still file an appeal. She said not for this term. So I'm so screwed. My parents are going to disown me. Life sucks. Right now anyway.
  12. What country do you live in? If it's canada, go with a TD GM Visa. They hand them out like candy to students. It was both mine and my sister's first credit card. Or, try MBNA Platinum. I told them I was a student and they gave me one with a low 10% annual rate with no annual fee. I would recommend staying away from the rewards cards at this point. They usually have a high annual fee for those with little or no credit. Your other option is go to the bank you do your day to day banking with and talk to them. If you have a good history with them, they'll approve you no problem. I'm a pseudo expert on these matters, I have 7 credit cards *rolls eyes*
  13. His contact is certainly not upsetting me, it's not affecting my life at all except that it's making me think and analyze. I'm not looking for a relationship right now, but if he wants to get back together, I would be thrilled. I wasn't looking for a relationship when I met him either, but it just happened. I can be quite happy by myself, I don't NEED someone to "fulfill" me, but he was the one that ever even came close. And rnorth, you're right, he doesn't necessarily have to be the one that admits his mistake and make that move. I'm taking it as it comes, I just need to have some sort of idea of what his intentions are before I tell him I want him back. As for him knowing I still have feelings for him, I'm not sure about that. When we broke up, I told him I was fine (though I'm sure he knew at that point I wasn't). Like I told my sister to tell him, she told him I was fine and not angry or upset with him at all. Am I actually fine? I am. Do I still have feelings for him? I do, but like I said before, I have fond memories, and I will always care about him, but at this point it wouldn't stop me from seeing other people. Am I making sense at all? I'm at peace with what's happening and what will happen. Either we get back together or stay friends, whatever it is, I can be happy. Also, I have all the time in the world. If he wants to get back together today, tomorrow, or a year from now, I'll be here. Not "waiting" per se, my life goes on, but I'm not going anywhere.
