So on wednesday night I started to feel crappy. burning eyes dizzy achy. Then I woke up on Thursday real bad cold sore on my lip the first one in 2 years.
Today my stomach is off. I feel like I need to be sick or use the bathroom and I cant. I have used the bathroom about 3 time already.
I have bad bad cramps in my abck and stomach almost similar to menstral cramps. I Cant eat. It hit me out if nowhere on the way to work. I got an intense pain i my back then became all bloated.
I am currently on: Thyroid Meds Plaquenil Septra DS LDN Bicillan Inj GSE
I did call my LLMD but I am waiting to here back.
1.) Stomach Virus. Its going around in my office and my aunt just had it.
2.) Bicillan injection I did have one this morning but I have been on Bicillan since December
3.) Herpes in the brain
everything makes me worry...whats do you guys think?

Stomach virus would be the most likely. I sure hope you feel better soon!!
The cold sore could have been the warning sign that your system is "down."

Ugh, I thought getting a cold sore was a good thing?

I had the same thing a couple weeks ago!! I NEVER get cold sores but I got two with this bug. It lasted for about 10 days.
I called the accute care center in our area and asked if it was something going around and they said yes that they were seeing alot of people with it. They said it could last up to 10 days, and it did.

Oh, and I had really bad stomach issues for the 10 days, not the cold sores.

Thanks Aiden, glad things are better.
Bumping up as DD felt much better on Sunday, but now stomach and back pain and the runs are back today. Wondering if others experienced similar symptoms.

I got hit with that bug back in Jan and it caused vomiting and diarrhea as well as nausea. Increased head and neck pressures as well.
My whole family got hit and we got it from our extended family.
I had a fever of over 102 and oddly enough this caused my low body temp (96-97.5deg) to improve to now where it is mostly in the 98's. I was surprised my sys was able to handle it.
