I'm sick
Dennis Vogel:
Fortunately when I passed out I was laying on my side. I've always been concerned I'd be on my back and drown.

Hi Dennis:
Hope you are feeling better.
I want to give you a few suggestions from someone who has been there, done that, and lives with it every day.
1) I always have a few extra Pedialytes on hand for diarrhea and vomiting. They are designed for children, but anyone can drink them. I am partial to the Grape flavor. They go down real easy, and replace all the electrolytes your body loses during dehydration, of which I am always in danger. I have to drink one every morning, but that is just me with all my issues. They are a little pricey, around $4.50 per bottle, but who cares when you're sick. As my brother says, "It's only money". I would recommend having a few in the pantry, for the next time this happens.
2) I am on a very bland diet. I don't eat anything spicy or rough. Again, this is me, but the older we get, the less our bodies are able to handle the things we once used to be able to handle, as my 83 year old father has now discovered.
3) Every Fall, I get a flu shot. I also have received a one time pneumonia shot. I have been getting the flu vaccine every year for the last 20 years, and it has proven very effective, Lord willing.
All of these drinks, special foods, and drugs are an incredible blessing from the Lord, and I highly recommend them, from someone who lives with this evil every day of my life.
God Bless.
Dean
PS: I forgot to add that I take a sublingual (under the tongue) Vitamin B-12, B-6, and Folic Acid tablet at least once per week. When I start to feel run down, I pop one of these. Takes about 20 minutes to dissolve. If you're interested, I can PM with the website. Take care.
Dennis Vogel:
Jas 5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
Thank you everyone for your prayers and advice. I'm still a little sick but I finally feel like eating a little something. And I got a little sleep last night. So I hope the worst is over.
I'm still weak as a kitten. My body feels like it weighs 500 lbs. Little things like a glass of water seem to weigh 10 x more.
I'm most grateful for being able to sleep.
