LOL SOMEONE HELP PLEASE , MEDICAL CONDITION.. I THINK.

[matt123]

is there any good reason why you can't get to a hospital to actually get yourself checked out?
"wait and see" isn't usually the best form of diagnosis/treatment. I'm no doctor but common sense will tell you that.

Straight from Wiki:
"Meningitis is potentially life-threatening and has a high mortality rate if untreated; delay in treatment has been associated with a poorer outcome."

Pretty much hence why I've been so adamant on going to the hospital. Once again, no one's going to blame you for going there with these symptoms. You'll probably just get chucked on broad-spectrum antibiotics once you get there straight away. So yeh, you were already at 41 so I'd go now. I don't see a point in waiting because your drugs are going to mess up what your fever should actually be anyway. But meh, up to you. Like I said, meningitis isn't that common but it's something you don't want to miss...

Ok man.
Appreciate the help.
so good to have docs like you haha.

Righto
friends coming over soon.

you are not gonna get an ENTER of 2 haha
e.g abdi: omg failed chem!!!.... he got 74/75 haha

We should define Abdi in the urbandictionary

Definition: Abdi - the act of making out like you failed an exam, only to end up with a rediculously high mark.

e.g.  'Aww man, I totes just failed the chemistry exam.  Probz gonna get liek an E....'
       'Yeah, whatever.  Just shutup.  Don't pull an Abdi okay...'

this is prob bit late... but no ones mentioned it

what i do if you have a high fever and your shaking is get a lemon cut it in half... and massage it all over your body, your head, your chest... it feels yucky and you will probably start to shiver even more but i swear to god it brings the temperature right down, almost immediately. but if you have a fever the best thing to do and it might not feel like the best thing is to not put so many blankets on yourself cause it just makes it worse. your trying to cool down not warm up even though you feel like your cold...
and of course lots of fluids... fevers usually only last 1-2 days ... if its something more severe then it will likely last longer.
but yeah hope your well matt123

[Hutchoo]

Bit late coming into this topic, but I know how you feel, OP. I came down with Legionnaire's disease three weeks before my VCE exams in 2008, although I didn't realise just how potentially lethal it was until several months on when I learned more about it. I couldn't study, watch TV or browse the web as that made me feel incredibly dizzy. I couldn't even get out of bed for two weeks to see a doctor; that's how bad it was. All I could do was sleep, and that's pretty much what I did for 20-22 hours every day until I eventually got over it. The last week before exams I still felt extremely nauseous and very weird all over, but I still had to tough it out and study.

Had I not come down with that horrific illness, I'd probably be at Melbourne now instead of Monash (since I only just missed the clearly-in for my first preference), which brings me to the point I want to make. If something isn't right, see a doctor ASAP. That's the one thing I regret not doing. Even though I'm happy at Monash, these are the kinds of things that can easily ruin your chances of getting into a certain course or gaining admission to a certain uni. The sooner you sort these problems out, the better.
