The official 'ILL' thread- What is your illness?
Hello. This is for the ill people of DIS.
Mentall, physicaly, go ahead. Indulge.
I am really ill. I haven't got a GP so I crawled to the doctors this morning to the visitors GP thing and was sent to A&E. I have a re-occuring problem with my throat. Last time I ended up with quinsy:

I ended up on a drip alone in hospital after they cut out a massive
pus filled abscesses out of my throat with a scalpol. They gave me so much pain relief I didn't recognise my mum when she came to see me.
Anyway, they have given me loads of penicillin and strong paracetamol. So hopefully it will clear. There is talk of them taking my tonsils but I would like to keep them.
Could be worse. I am actually quite happy in my reindeer pjs in bed watching films.
So then, what is your illness?

I've got a bad cold
I've had a cold since September and then last week I woke up and could barely breathe, fun times.
Still sniffly and a little croaky now, sexy.
'sniffly and a little croaky sexy'
what a runny nose and sounding like a crow? Sexy???!
...Just kidding ;)
what? you mean this ISN'T hot?
damn, got to stop sniffling over desirable men then :'(
my advice
if you have a croaky voice then put on lots of knitwear (with holes for max effect), smoke cigerettes constantly and go find some hot guy with a ginger beard at an open mic night.
it's a plan :D
also, I can't help but feel a bit like Phoebe when she gets her "sexy voice"
in Friends. I kinda like being a little bit croaky, adds character.
Frostrup agrees.
i have asthma
and a cold sore
Also, eek
that sounds horrible! Poor you :(
I'm alright
I was sat in hospital watching this old lady, who had fallen down the stairs and had broken her leg or some kind of bone. I felt sorry for her. She looked so alone.
:(
links with the things which make you needlessly emotional thread, which I am not going to actually link because I cba.
You poor wee thing, how awful :(
I just have the cold and some hormonal related weepies.
I have a bit of a funny throat but I just think somethings stuck there
this thread is also ill. rebuild!
is it my replying technique...?
no, just DiS being useless!
Knew it. All the women on here are malingerers with weak immune systems.
Luckily for me that's my exact fetish.
I hope you get well soon
(so I can make jokes about Quincy)
was thinking for a while about quincy and quinsy
saw no comedy gold there though.
So feel free to make jokes
Eek.
You make my malingering seem limp and ineffectual. Get well soon...
Nagging sense of ennui
Hangover.
i'm not ill as such
i'm just terrible at life
^ there you go, DiS
go nuts

Asthma.
The bedwetters disease of choice.
Actually it rarely bothers me. I play football twice a week and run once at the weekend and just dose myself up on salbutamol in advance.
I've also got rhinitis, but I suspect that's a 40% made up condition.
I've got the wonderfully named 'Qvar' as a regular inhaler
Salbutamol for the very rare times it starts playing up - They usually go out of date before I've even used them, to be honest.
Got rhinitis too - I think its basically the medical term for a snotty nose.
I use one called Symbicort.
I used to be on Qvar, which is a steroid, but I had an aborted attempt at joining the police force and they would not take someone who was on regular steroids so my GP switched me over. Symbicort is like a slow release salbutamol. I use Ventolin just before football/running.
I have excruciating toothache
Does that count as an illness?
I had blood poisoning the other week.
Spent six nights in hospital and scared the shit out of my family and friends.
I'm better now though, although I'm loosing weight without really trying, which is kind of good and kind of a concern.
Got some ace pain relief in hospital and also realised that 99% of people in A%E on a Thursday night need a right slap.
fuck, scary!
Are you ok?
It makes my sore arm and finger seem a bit lame.
I STILL really hurt inside after having my appendix out five weeks ago
And my toenails hurt whenever I walk for for than ten minutes.
Horrific cold.
Slepet all day. Had it since Wednsday. It's at that point were it goes from a head cold to a chesty cough. Keep telling myself I'll feel better tomorrow. I am very incohereny and can't think or concentraete.
I still have pleurisy, but it's much better than it was and I can sleep quite comfortably now.
I have burst the stitches in my finger and ignored this fact for nearly a week now, and my cut is really gaping, I think I may need ot go to a walk in centre this weekend. The chip in the bone in my arm is nearly better.
Behaviour
Hmmm
I think I may have this now and again. I used to get it a lot when I was younger and gave up going to the doctor as he was a useless bellend. I get it about three times a year now.
I am going to lose my fanbase with the honeys but.. I have had the same reoccuring thing I suspect. It is not as bad as yours but it did get so bad I could hardly swallow and found it hard to breathe for a few days.
Next time it turns up I will go to a new unpoisoned doctor and propose quinsy. Thanks
Hope this is the last you see of it.
OH!
this was last year. what a fool I am.
