Well, I'm back. Most of my symptoms are now down to manageable level aside from the cough, I can swallow soft foods, so I'm not restricted to liquids any more, and it's about time I started paying attention to the rest of my life again.
I really shouldn't be surprised to see a loss on the scale, but I am, given the number of hard candies I've been sucking on all week. I may have to have more of them (the phlegm I'm coughing up is speckled in blood, and nothing soothes a throat and promotes healing like real honey, so no comments about sugar-free, thanks). But I'll try and stay healthy in the rest of what goes in my mouth.
How has everyone else been while I was gone?

Doctor confirms strep. Made a housecall and brought an Rx for antibiotics "just in case". He's an angel.
Unfortunately, he also confirmed I'm already almost doing everything I can to alleviate symptoms, except for two things. He recommended that for a couple days, based on MY VERY SPECIFIC, UNIQUE AND WELL STUDIED METABOLISM, BLOOD WORK, AND CURRENT OVERALL HEALTH STATUS AND MONITORING SITUATION (i.e. any of you try this at home without asking your own doctors and I'll come over there and slap you) I can increase the dosage of the OTC cold meds I'm taking slightly over what's recommended on the package. And he also suggested a hot alcoholic beverage. Seriously. Like Hot Buttered Rum, made with honey replacing some of the brown sugar.
There goes my ketosis, as per doctors orders. But then, both he and I were only okay with this dramatic weight loss because it had gone on very quickly (45 pounds in 4 months) due to some medical conditions last summer that have now passed, and I was in good health, but still getting close monitoring from him, so adding bloodwork to check my nutrient levels every couple weeks wasn't a big deal. The situation has changed, I am not currently healthy. I will be able to restart the dramatic weight loss once I have regained my overall physical health. And it's not like a liquid diet, even if it does include the occasional HBR, is going to pack the pounds back on in a week.
But if I focus on weighing in and logging drinks (there will be no food, there has been no food for 2 days), I might be tempted to try and stay away from medicines I need if they have a bad impact on the scale. Immediate health crisis first (like not being able to swallow or sleep), then long term health issue like weight. I know from experience I shouldn't try tackling both at once.
Be well buddies, and wash your hands.

I'm managing about two hours of broken sleep out of each 6-hour dose of cold and flu medicine before the effect wears off enough to make sleeping impossible, and I'm back to hacking up chunks of my lungs and blowing my nose every minute or so. I've been slathering vaporub all over, sitting in the shower with the detachable showerhead aimed at my throat and upper chest, gargling salt water and sucking on lozenges almost non-stop to try and get my poor throat some relief. I think I may be losing my mind to the pain, lack of sleep and fever.
There has to be some super secret way to get over a bug like this, right? People can't really survive this kind of ongoing misery. I must have been dreaming all those other times I was sick. If I was sick like this back then, I would have just curled up and died (a very tempting proposition right now) (I may be losing perspective).
Help me FS buddies, you're my only hope.

Ugh. I am so, so sick. It hurts to breathe, let alone swallow. I know I should be drinking water stuff to keep my fluids up, but it just hurts so much from the coughing. I'm not logging right now as small sips of water and sugar free lozenges and cold and flu drugs are all that have passed my lips for the last day, and all I can see myself ingesting for the forseeable future. Crawling to the bathroom for the vaborub and to run the shower for some humidity every once in a while is hard enough, I'm not going to the computer for every lozenge or glass of water.
Wish me luck, I have a mildly suppressed immune system, so this may linger for a while. If I'm not getting calories into me by tomorrow evening, I will call my doctor (he's amazing and I have his home office number) and ask his advice, but for now I know that all the hospital will do is expose me to other strains of infection, keep me cold and from getting any rest for several hours, and then eventually send me home. I've been through this before, and I haven't been ill long enough to warrant IV fluids or Rxs or anything of the sort, so please don't suggest it. I've got all the medical advice I need from the MD I see twice a week, knows me and my medical history very well, and whose home office number I can call at any time.

I have a terrible headcold, came on overnight. Sinuses are feeling like they're full of rocks, and my lungs are bubbling. I'd like to take my regular NeoCitran cup of hot, warm drugs, but it's also packed full of hot, warm sugar, so I think I'll stick to DayQuil this time around.
In other news, still losing, so I'm sure that plateau last week was attached to my monthly bloating. I'll go mark it on my calendar for NEXT month so I don't start panicking again when I start to flatline once more. Just have to stick to the plan and the loss will show up sooner or later.
Tomorrow's Nuit Blanche, where the entire city stays up all night and goes on wild and zany adventures. Right now, my plans involve being abducted by a group of francophone burlesque dancers and seeing what the french side of the city gets up to at 4am. Not sure what I'll consume, but I AM sure I'll burn off several thousand calories in the process! Wish me luck!
