00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[Imrahilwjz]

For all of you with little ones, the worry never ends no matter how old your children are. My youngest son, 22 yo, came home from work still having a fever ( my wife checked, 104 degrees) and complaining a headache and neck pain. I know Keith and Wes already know what our concern was. We took him to the Emergency Room and fortunately the spinal tap was negative.

You called it. First thought I had.

^ I can do the wavy thing as well, Luis can you explain the video for those that can’t see it?

I took the day off, I didn’t stay at the Emergency Room all night. But when I realized my wife and son didn’t get home this morning I figured I’d stay home so she could sleep, she ran out to get him a Blizzard. She is like the Energizer Bunny. I did run out and get his prescription, Tylenol and Sprite he wanted. The poor kid walks hunched over because if he straightens up he gets bad low back pain. He has two blankets wrapped around him due to chills. Currently laying in our bed because his blankets and sheets are drenched.

Yes. I've been saving them for years to try this. Someone gave us 24 chickens, so I have to get it done now.

That's a great idea on repurposing them!

Did they give you any idea what it is? Does he work outside a lot?

Wow Luis! That is really good. After watching the video and then seeing this. You nailed it!!

They said it was an upper respiratory infection which is strange he doesn’t have any of the symptoms. Yes he does work outside, he followed in his uncle Luis’s footsteps and does HVAC installations.

I don't know what the houses are like there, but maybe he worked on an attic these days. There's always a lot of insulation there, and rodents and other things get in.

You are correct, those aren't URI symptoms. Did they do bloodwork to check his electrolytes? Flu and/or Covid swab? Does his headache get worse when he lays down? Any N/V, photo sensitivity?

It’s Italian potatoes, hot peppers and egg, complimented with Tabasco sauce.

Migraines aside from his recent symptoms?
Has he been drinking water? I know that sounds silly, but dehydration can cause the symptoms he is having.
