ER it was. Mom took me yesterday. I have flu, strep, and pink eye. I'm on amoxicillin. Bed ridden yesterday but well enough today to do e-mail. I dread catching up on 2 weeks of work at home (neglected the ponds this week, full of debris too from the hurricane but I did hop in quick to upright the marginals all knocked down) and at work where I get no sympathy. I've never felt so bad in my life. I normally don't get sick. I don't get close to anyone except my family so I'm not sure how I got three separate viruses and bacteria at once!

Glad you did the doctor thing and are on meds. I wonder if the stress of facing Isabel helped you along? Put your feet up as much as you can! OJ with lemon or lime, vitamen C, hot chicken soup, more broth than anything, with garlic and tabasco. All my favorite remedies. I think I torture the virus to death! ;-) k30a and the watergardening labradors http://www.geocities.com/watergarden...dors/home.html |

1 virus at a time is the rule
strep and pink eye are bacterial. Ingrid I have flu, strep, and pink eye. I'm on amoxicillin. I'm not sure how I got three separate viruses and bacteria at once! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List Manager: Puregold Goldfish List http://puregold.aquaria.net/ www.drsolo.com Solve the problem, dont waste energy finding who's to blame ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Unfortunately, I receive no money, gifts, discounts or other compensation for all the damn work I do, nor for any of the endorsements or recommendations I make. |

Just like a sick fish, one thing stresses their system so the others can
get in. (Life is a Pond) Plus, if you haven't had anything illness for some time your immune system probably wasn't up to par for the new stuff out there once exposed, I suppose. ~ jan On Tue, 23 Sep 2003 14:30:47 GMT, wrote: 1 virus at a time is the rule strep and pink eye are bacterial.

We were in the Cayman's when Isabel hit. Got back on the following Saturday
to find one big tree on top of three smaller trees next to our pond but not on the pond. We did not get electricity back until the following Tuesday evening. The pond fish seemed OK but my tank fish were hurting. I had their airstone plugged into a battery back-up pump but it only lasts 22 hrs. There were no battery operated pumps to be found anywhere.....even online. Our neighbor on Monday offered to let us plug into one line on his generator so, we chose our pond pump. We plugged in an outdoor extension outlet to his generator, plugged in our pond pump to that and then ran an extension cord from the outlet into the house for the tank fish. They have all made it, thanks to our neighbor. We will be getting a generator so, that this never happen again. Now, we have to finish cutting up the 18+ trees that have uprooted or have been taken down by the other trees. We had a mini-forest behind our house, now we have a glen. At least our pond and fish survived. Kathy "FBCS" wrote in message ... I had a trying 24hrs. with no power. I prayed for my fish to make it through. My DH ran around town looking for a generator with non to be found a friend provided a mini ac/dc adapter to connect to the battery of the car to run aerator. The wetones had been w/o water movement for 14 hrs already. The power came on about 1 hr ago and the fish were dancing in the fall stream of water. We had many trees down, I live 1/2 mile off the main road. DH took off at daybreak with the dozer and chain saws. I was able to keep all in prespective and know many had it much worse than we. The storm had lost much of it's punch by the time it got here (So. MD), but it was still the worst I had ever remembered for this area. My heart goes out to those in No. Car take took the brunt of the impact. Joann |

I dont know salt dipping people works too well. Just salt gargles, but that is for
sore throats and dental work. Ingrid "BenignVanilla" wrote: wrote in message ... 1 virus at a time is the rule strep and pink eye are bacterial. Ingrid snip Uh...Ingrid...should we dip her in salt?
