You're only contagious if you have a infectious disease. Fever has nothing to do with it. Either that or my 25 years experience as a nurse and two bachelor degrees aren't worth *kitten*.

This thread has made my night. Haven't laughed so much in ages and I'm an endoscopy nurse so I hear lots of stories about colonoscopy prep. I have considered Alli but definately won't be touching it now. I had a colleague who was put on Orlistat. Everytime she farted she got one of us to check that it wasn't a shart- an…

It should be noted that blood test assays vary from country to country, so posting your blood result numbers is not useful. I had to get used to different ranges when I moved from UK to Ireland because the labs used a different form of testing.

22.3.17 20 minute walk on the treadmill 3mph speed. I could have gone longer but still nursing a chest infection. No point pushing it and being sicker for longer.

I also suffer migraines and chronic headaches that have been uncontrolable for years so I can totally relate to how you are feeling. My migraines are very well controlled at the moment and I think it is because I started to drink 1 or 2 cups of cappuccino (Nescafe sachets) with sugar per day. I drink decaf tea the rest of…

I have by bloods checked 3-monthly and used to keep a diary which pinpointed what affected my levels. I have kept so many health diaries over the yearsIi'm surprised I'm not…

I've been on synthetic thyroxine for over 25 years, since it was first introduced (it came from cows before that). I had to have my thyroid removed due to cancer.

[quote="SydniRease;10528842" 2. DRINK 1 GALLON OF WATER A DAY [/quote] I think you made a small mistake, if you drink 1 gallon (8 pints) of water a day you will die from water intoxication where your blood sodium level drops so low that the fluid moves into the cells causing dangerous swelling, especially in the brain.…

I'm supposed to be running a 10 mile road race on Sunday, unfortunately I have been nursing a chest infection for a few days so won't be running. I will be going to collect my number and t-shirt on Saturday though as my Scottish blood won't allow me to get nothing for my money. The general advice is if the illness is above…
