[MENTION=1290]Smooth[/MENTION], I'd heard good things about B12, but I've been hesitant to try it because vitamins tend to make me feel even more nauseous. I think I probably should, though. I'm not on any pain meds, just ibuprofen for the spleen and joint pain. I don't have tonsillitis or strep, either, so there's really nothing I can do for it besides OTC stuff. I gargle with salt water and I have a recipe for Magic Mouthwash (benadryl, maalox, water) that I refrigerate. I found some good throat drops, too.
[MENTION=1583]Raven[/MENTION] I don't deal with being sick well, so it's definitely been messing with my emotions. I suffer from depression and anxiety, but that part of it really hasn't been too bad. I'm just used to working a lot and doing whatever I want when I want, so it's more than frustrating that I can't do as much. To be honest, I never could take a leave from my job to get fully better or I would go nuts and that's part of the reason that it's taking so long to recover is because I work full time still. I'm one of those who never calls out, but I've missed some work due to this.
I know that I have a right to complain, but I hate doing it. I do thank my lucky stars that it wasn't worse, though. Thanks guys! It does help to have someone to talk to!
