What the heck is normal body temp?

[aide]

They let me go early cuz I looked like death. I didn't actually feel too bad until I got to sit at my desk for 3 periods. And I was busy the whole time marking like 100 correction papers. T___T Lazy shit kids.

I'm taking tmrw off. My sinues feel like they are going to explode. Or cave in. I can't even tell. I don't think I have a fever. I got a thermometre and it read 36.9 but I don't know C when it comes to body temp. Isn't that weird? Tell me it's 100 degrees outside and I'll be clueless but I know what that 25 is a lovely day. Anyway.

Got the AU single on my phone. It like it. It's... boring. I'm sure it's got a good message and its nice to listen too but doesn't catch me. The coverwork is pretty though. I won't bother trying to get it off my phone on to my computer because I'll go just download the single when it comes out in a month anyway. I'm bad.

I need to find those head packs. I have chills.

honeycorrupts, I got your postcard!

I lurk... is bad.

However, I also work in healthcare. And 36.9 is absolutely normal. It sounds like you have a sinus infection (which you probably already know). Have you tried sinus lavage?

It's basically squirting salt water up one nostril, and letting it (and all the crap up there) flow out the other. It sounds incredibly gross, but it works. Seriously.

Hope you feel better.

Lurking is fine~ LOL

It ended up hitting 39.1 last night and right now after 12 hours of sleep (which I'm surprised I didn't toss and turn) it's back down to normal. My nose is still blocked up... maybe I'll try that. I'm becoming more and more down with home remedies because the medical system in Japan is... strange. My average wait at the doc's is about an hour regardless of how many people are ahead of me and then he usually gives me 4 different pills for whatever the problem is. Though cheap, it a bit unneccessary. So, like, turn upside down and put it in and then kind of turn around? Maybe I'll do it in the bath. :3

I reccomend the bath for the first time. Just because it can be kinda tricky aiming for the sink.

Here are some detailed instructions: http://drnancygriner.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/PatientEducation/LAVAGE.pdf

Screw making the recipe yourself. I'm pretty sure you should be able to find plain old saline in a japanese drug store somewhere. Usually for contacts? Just make sure it's JUST saline and not other junk. Then it comes in that nice easy squeeze bottle.

According to Google, it's 98.42° F, which is normal despite how you're feeling.

I agree with above though - clearing out the inflammation and infection will help you feel much less pressure in your sinuses.

Bah it went up to 102 last night but I'm feeling fine now and my temp is back down. :) The nose has gone from drippy to just blocked. Which makes me sound like I have a mouth full of cotton but at least I don't need to run for the tissues. Day off!

I'm sorry you're feeling sick. D: Most horrible feeling of all.

I also suggest what rinalin said. It's gross but it works.

YAY! So now the second part will be sent. i just wanted to make sure it could get over there, Especially since I left no room for the 33.

I wish i could get Arashi as my ringback! All I have is a cheesy song.

Im feeling much better now. I probably could have made it to work. Oh well.

I can't wait! I love mail. I'm expecting something from the rental company today. It's only 2... it feels later but then I realize I woke up at 8.

I would set it to my ringback but... I don't think everyone needs to hear Arashi when they call me nor do I know how.

LOL @ icon.

Hopefully you'll like the yarn and the other thing. I made it~ I glammed it up and really hope it's not too cheesy for you. or that it will fall apart the moment you use it And since I'm at it already, expect another postcard.

Do you get paid sick days? If not, then go back to school and you'll get to wear that awesome white mask! It's all the rage in Japan.

My ringback is special. It will drive any one who calls my cell crazy.
