I had a grilled cheese sandwhich for breakfast

No way. For the most part my dog doesn't touch anything I don't give her permission to. The cats I threw outside a while ago b/c they were driving me nuts.

I just folded over that part of the spread--she won't notice, right?

mbasta - 2010-10-17 8:44 PM Yanti,

I finally got to do a little research and just like you mentioned there isn't too much out there. However, I found a referenced article that said:

"The fever and aches can be treated with traditional medicines like analgesics and anticonvulsants. Aspirin should be avoided. There is no medication that will kill the virus. Supportive care with rest is advised to deal with acute joint pain. Movement and mild exercise tend to improve stiffness. However, heavy exercise may exacerbate symptoms."

In terms of exercises, avoid heavy strength training. In terms of mild movement recommendations, try active range of motion activities. I know it will be boring compared to what you're used to but it's the best I can suggest from the information I have.

Here's a link that will give you some ideas for some AROM exercises:

Let me know if there's anything else I might be able to help with. Sorry I couldn't give you too much to work with. It looks according to your age that things should look up soon.

Hey Yanti, not sure if you saw this so I thought I would move it up. Since you're starting to recover it probably won't be very helpful - but just in case.

Glad to hear you're feeling better. Good thing you're young and normally healthy!

Thank you so much!

Heh. You have no idea how old I am, do you?

TriAya - 2010-10-20 9:48 AM I'm having pancakes with PB and syrup for dinner.

I guess I'll have a pear for dessert??? I thought this was dessert?

mbasta - 2010-10-20 11:25 AM Goodmorning Emily - looks like you sensed a food discussion?

esc - 2010-10-20 11:26 AM

Alrighty!  Is there any other food that I can *heart*?  Can you tell I'm still waiting for my breakfast to cook and I'm so hungry I could eat my keyboard?

esc - 2010-10-20 11:26 AM

Where there is food that needs eating...I will be there.

mbasta - 2010-10-20 11:04 PM Maybe I shouldn't have said anything. *Pulls foot out of mouth

You look great regardless of whether my guess was accurate or not.

esc - 2010-10-20 11:22 PM

Mmmmm....pancakes.  I *heart* blueberry pancakes smoothed in pb and topped with bananas.

mbasta - 2010-10-20 11:27 AM

Chocolate?

esc - 2010-10-20 11:30 AM

Oh, I most certainly *heart* chocolate.  I joke with The Dude that we're only married because he tricked me with chocolate.

My husband is very good at filling food requests.

At times I eat like I'm pregnant, but it's normal. I wonder what a disaster my diet will turn into if I ever decide to reproduce.

rnihill - 2010-10-20 11:48 AM Hahaha...  I think my diet was actually better when I was pg...  Between weird food aversions and being forced on the scale so often at the doctors office, I only gained the "normal" amount of weight with each pregnancy.  Afterwards, when I could eat (and drink) what I wanted and had to try to LOSE the leftover weight, that's when I ran into problems!
