On Wednesday, I started having a severe sore throat. Found my temperature was 102. From that point on its a blur and I was delerious and alone. At some point, I found the energy to go to the emergency room. They told me they don't test for H1N1 unless you are sick enough to warrant being admitted. I slept on the cot while they found out the strep results were negative. I have had fever every day for four days now and am so weak it is impossible to do anything. On the first 2 days I did not eat a thing. Now I eat but don't enjoy the experience. My fever today was 100. Each day, for 3 days it was 102. So this may be too soon but I am encouraged by my temperature going down that I am going to survive. I am a school teacher here and in a local school district 300 students are out and 10 per cent of the staff. They are having a major sanitising session at that school this weekend. Have any of your towns been this hard hit?
