Real Person Sick
To borrow a phrase from Kerri of Six Until Me, I've been "real person sick" for the past few days. Yuck. Nose stuffed, dizziness, head feeling like a helium balloon, and nausea. That last one hit yesterday. Thankfully, bgs have been behaving themselves (thank goodness for small favors). I even checked for ketones just in case the meter wasn't giving the right reading. Good news: Only small amount of ketones.
My biggest issue right now is the nausea. I wish it would go away!!

I am sorry you are not feeling well! I know what you mean. I have something like you have too. It seems like everyone where I work is getting sick. I hope you feel better soon.

Sorry you're feeling yucky. Great BG is not out of whack.
A bit of fresh grated ginger in either club soda or steeped hot water settles nausea.
This is a acupressure point to alleviate nausea. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcZs6BYFyTo .

Poor you. I do not know where you are but that sounds like a lot of people in the UK, flu or the norovirus. I hope and pray that you will get better soon!

I'm feeling better today -- not as nauseated as I was yesterday. Still very tired and stuffed up, but otherwise doing better than I was. Thanks for the support!
