Op here. I’m home now, but on day 13 of fever/chills/body pain (sternum and upper back).

I can’t care for myself, let alone my children.

I don’t understand how I can be sick for so long and I’m seeing no improvement at all. Just holding steady.

Any other HFM stories out there (in adults)?????

Getting on an airplane while that sick wouldn’t help.

Op here. I already explained we don’t live in DC and we drove for our vacation and it was during a period where I was feeling better. We did not fly anywhere.

Real car travel isn't a great idea while sick either, as you're finding out. The body is in a state of depletion. Doing anything, even riding, takes more out of it.

Op here. I explained that when we left for San Diego, I had 3 days of continuous improvement and the fevers had stopped and the sores were gone. Then it came roaring back as soon as we arrived in San Diego.

GO.TO.THE.DOCTOR

She has. Twice. The first time "Op here. The doc prescribed steroids and a mouthwash for me, but I don’t think I’ll take either."
The second time EKG, etc., came back clear. Why go to the doctor if you're not even going to follow their advice?

Op here. The mouthwash was just to help with the pain from the sores, it was literally just lidocaine. I was managing fine without it. The steroid was also just to help me feel more comfortable and would not have cured me. Soon after the first doc visit, I felt much improved and believed I was better. Then we went to San Diego, I got sick again, and saw another doctor.

Not that this thread is helping, but I’m now on day 15 of running a fever/chills/body pain (save for a 3 day break in the middle when I thought I was better).

I’m really unraveling mentally. I’m just so incredibly sick and it’s gone on for so long.

My DH is helping by handling our small children so I can rest. I can’t lean on him for more.

I’m trying to have bone broth and home
Made juice to see if I can kick this thing but not feeling any improvement whatsoever.

I thought I had improved….

I have a fever and chills. The sores are almost gone.

I’ve got like level 8/9 pain in my upper back/shoulders and behind my sternum.

I’m so freaking angry right now. Currently in La Jolla on a beach vacation with DH and small kids and I can’t get out of bed.

Is this COVID after all? I tested negative for it twice, but can this really be HFM?

So you traveled here to San Diego and brought this with you? You went on vacation while you were still feeling so sick that you're in bed? I don't understand you OP. There is something off about this whole thing. I've read every post from the start, this entire story is weird.

OPs story is weird because it is fake. This is nothing but a weird attention seeking TROLL.

My money is on HFM.

Anyone else care to place their bet?

What the hell is HFM....spell it out.

Hand foot and mouth - what people said earlier in the thread. God, even a rhesus monkey could figure that one out!

Well pass the bananas then

Lol this whole exchange is hilarious.

We're still talking about this? Come on OP! Enough. I don't believe your story, I never did from the beginning. You claim to have a spouse, yet where is your spouse in all of this?

Op sounds so incredibly whiny and attention seeking.

She has HFM. Not everything is Lyme.
