Fever sore neck headache

Body aches & other symptoms that only show up a few hours after waking up

2024.05.14 11:12 Gam1ngChair Body aches & other symptoms that only show up a few hours after waking up

22M, taking 40mg Vyvanse as of about a month ago.
Going back to Sunday, upon waking up I was stuck in a “Hypnopompic” state and was unable to properly wake myself up. I was meant to go out for breakfast for Mothers day and I missed it. I woke up for a few minutes at a time as I remember checking my phone, but I physically could not stay awake until about 1:30pm. I had retail work at 2:30, and I felt drowsy and achey the whole time.
Yesterday I woke up feeling fine after sleeping for probably 9-10 hours, but at about 3:30pm during work I started having the same aches and complete lack of energy. By the end of my 4 hour shift I had to literally sit on the floor for a couple minutes, which does not happen normally.
Today I once again woke up feeling refreshed and perfectly fine, but did not have work. I write this at 7pm, and am currently feeling the aches and tiredness again. It probably started getting worse at about 5pm. I’m also getting mild headaches. I have no other fever-like symptoms, no head cold, just headaches, full-body aching and drowsiness/lack of energy.
What’s going on? What can make you feel fine for a few hours upon wakeup but gradually get worse over the course of a day? I’ve experienced the sleep hypnopompia state before of being unable to wake up for a few hours but not with anything like this afterwards. Thanks in advance.

2024.05.14 10:50 Severe-Dream Had a seizure yesterday morning.

Had a seizure yesterday morning.
Not too sure what happened I was home by myself. What I can piece together, I remember coming downstairs around 6am to have breakfast, a coffee and my meds. Did everything. I walked to the back door and that's where I had it. Afterwards I negotiated the stairs went back to bed and woke up at 2pm. When I got up noticed that my toe was bleeding and I am really sore with a crazy headache. It's now 6.30pm Tuesday and I have bruises coming out on my leg, a bump on my head and carpet burn on the tops of my toes, elbows and knees. Noticed downstairs that the rug was all ruffled up and there was a strange smudge on the glass sliding door and the tv remote that was on the entertainment unit was on the floor. Sorry for unloading, just needed to vent. I've had my licence back for 20 months and just got a new job. I guess I'll be losing both. Aaah so frustrating! I also can't find my pill caddy for yesterday. I had it because I took my morning meds. I left it on the breakfast island and now it's gone. It'll turn up I guess.

What’s wrong with my neck help please
Hello, last Dezember I had an necessary surgery and got abused, they layed me down in a hospital bed with 2 pillows and lifted the part were my head was laying while I still was unconscious, also there was gas that had to escape my body and was pushing against my shoulder musculature. One of those is why I have forward head posture(never had these problems)be it that my unconscious adopted the position, I have lymph nodes everywhere and my neck muscles are cramped up or infected. Also my face changed, I can’t concentrate very well, I have nerve issues(damage), get head aches more often than I used too, have hearing and tmj problems, I don’t feel good. Nothing I do seems to loosen the musculature, for 5 months I’ve tried Physio Therapy, stretches etc, orthopedic therapy, accupuncture, last week going to sauna. The only thing where I kinda noticed change is when I took the muscle relaxants, I got fever and my neck started aching and I got really bad cough. I still have neck aches, it’s been 2 Weeks since I took them. The musculature however also did not let loose. Is there an infection happening? My doctor gave me cervical syndrom as diagnosis but what could he really do to help other then muscle relaxants? I heard people inject Botox in the sc‘ms to relax them but I won’t do that and I don’t see any other option rn

2024.05.14 09:36 zungozeng Hi, new to MCAS, do I have it?

Dear all, I have been suffering for decades with allergies and severe hay fever. Since some years or so, I also experience strong reactions when parfums or strong chemical smells are around. Even the littlest amount will set me off for the rest of the day, causing skin redness, small dots on the face, itch and most importantly, a mental state of "fight or flight" feelings (basically feeling anxious for no reason). This effect multiplies when in tree/grass pollen season! It is that bad I am dragging me through the working days, as I feel completely unwell with headaches and no energy whatsoever left. Oh, and the nights are the worst: no continuous sleep at all..
Does this mean I need to get checked for MCAS? I am desperate as loosing a job over this is not fun.

2024.05.14 08:56 Aikobae MIL won

Sorry for any mistakes. I typed this on mobile and my head is pounding.
Edit: tried to correct as many errors as I could.
I'm currently 35 weeks pregnant and on the way to the hospital for high blood pressure, headache, and fever, most likely due to the stress this situation with my MIL caused. Since my last post, I have not spoken to her at all. My SO went to visit her twice without me because I told him I didn’t want to go.
Well, guess what? That “shiny spine” my SO was growing was all a lie because he had a talk with her on Mother’s Day, and now all of a sudden, I have never made the effort to have a conversation with MIL.
She just doesn’t know me, and I don’t know her—that's why she acts like that. She’s very upset about the baby shower situation and feels like my mother and I throwing one is a slap in the face to her. She pretty much told SO that she doesn’t like me over stuff that happened between me and him when I was a teenager and because I don’t eat her food.
SO says I should be the one to have a conversation with MIL. He said that if this situation with MIL doesn’t get fixed, he doesn’t want to continue this relationship. He was only mad that day because he wasn’t allowed to take his siblings out, not because of all the stuff she said about me for no reason. Now I honestly feel like he blames me for this whole situation and that he chose MIL.
I told him I’m open to a conversation before the baby gets here, but he says MIL has a lot going on with her master’s graduation and she’s sick, so I should be understanding until she cools off and we can have a “heart to heart” with MIL. What’s the point of continuing this relationship? This whole thing, and the fact that it’s affecting me and the baby, has made me look at him so differently. I think I’m going to break things off.

What do you guys think?
From summer of 2023, I have not been feeling well physically with my body. I have been experiencing a lot of pain in my neck which is causing me to get dizzy and headaches when I do the simplest things and lower back pain which legs to some weakness in my legs. I was consistently going back and forth to the hospital to see what was going on with me but all I kept getting was different medication all the time mainly a medication called “ naproxen”. After a few months of using it every single day I noticed a lot of hair everywhere in my room when I was cleaning. I immediately stopped taking it because I was too worried that it would make be go completely bald. I feel like my hair has been getting worse and worse. My hair was always extremely thin and dense before any of that happened and I lost most in a span of a year without any hairgrowth. Its been over a year that this has happened. The hair that I still have left seems to look healthy but I am not sure why this is taking long to come back if its TE. I booked an appointment with a dermatologist but I am still waiting “Since January because it was booked through a family doctor ie. referral” By the way my hair does not look like this in normal lighting it looks ok as long as you are not too close to it to notice but if I run my hand through my hair you easily see how thin it is. I am still hoping to get an official doctor to check my scalp but I just wanted to see what some of you experts have to say. I appreciate you for reading this ❤️

2024.05.14 07:55 morganleigh00 Symptoms that led to my raynauds and hyper mobile ehlers-danlos self diagnosis- I feel like I’m going crazy

Hi all. I am a 26 year old female, who has always had noticeable hyper extension of my elbows, my toes and my neck. With a lot of research, I’ve reached this diagnosis. My primary care provider scratched his head when I suggested this diagnosis and my symptoms, so I’m coming to Reddit. I’ve heard a lot about ehlers danlos and raynauds, and my symptoms of severely cold toes and discoloration (I’m diagnosed with ADHD and have been prescribed 30 mg vyvanse which triggers it without fail) led me to believe I have all of the above. My discoloration has occurred since I was a child, which was always triggered by cold temps and led to my legs having patchy purple patterns and pale toes. It worsened in severity when I became pregnant at 20 and felt better after giving birth. But I noticed I had multiple bruises on my legs that occurred without trauma, and would eventually heal after about 1-2 weeks. The bruising also occurred when I began working out and running, which would begin to tamper off after about a month of consistent exercise. With my doctor waving me off with a non existent worry, I’m curious if anyone with this also has bruising? They appear after physical activity and sometimes have a sore bump underneath. I consistently have cold feet, and have veins in my arms and feet that protrude with adequate blood flow. (For context my dad also has obvious symptoms of ehlers danlos, but never was diagnosed) Thank you all, sincerely from a user with health anxiety that is very confused.

2024.05.14 07:29 BladeSeraph To kill some time, lets chatter about Desire`ables on 1.3.1 and maybe future updates~

So i only finally got my first Fully-awakened Weapon+Terminus-like+Warpath with Twen a few days ago and certainly enjoying how Proto bahamut and Behemoth runs feel alot faster, though its certainly driving home the half burn out i feel on the `grind` still, even when i only do a few runs a day.
So thought it be neat to maybe see what some others might want out of the game before they feel its a `complete` game overall.
Just to start off the list here`s a few i feel it could really need, especially would of been nice day 1 of the game: -Proud mode versions of the Primal Beasts and Tayu`itar: I spammed about it multiple times already around the reddit for this game, but I`m sure many would agree that its half a pain to get multiple copies of dread-tails, sequester manes, Tayu`itar head units and Ukar units. Problem aint present with the Avia Commanders thanks to Wolf and Veil.
-Probably over-used, but a Rogue-lite mode or a `Proper bonus reward system` might be nice, maybe to replace quick quest itself: Since i seen plenty, including myself complain there`s nothing really to justify the grind one has todo even after acquiring the `base stuff` of a good sigil combination or put all the effort into fully awakened a weapon. Plus how sparse the end game feels since its just boiled down to Proto Bahamut, then Lucy and now Behemoth, which even if the latter feels way more interactive and you dont have bosses constantly spamming either cutscenes or being out of range causing forced fixed down times of no damage or SBA generation...
...Well them doing something to FIX a problematic mode that had the intention of doing multiple quests back to back for a goodie reward would of been kind of nice, especially since many games whether triple A or not seem to want to include a Rogue-lite every since stuff like Slay the spire popularized it and it fits into many genres. So just like how Dragon Quest: Infinite Strash started right off with a rogue-like for the sake of grinding levels/materials/etc. GBF: Relink could take a page from that or even how Warframe a f2p online looter-shooter made its diviri paradox into a rogue-lite gamemode of collecting buffs and getting more and more ridiculously powerful in that mode in particular.
In GBF: Relink`s case, this could simply be done where each quick quest could add a small resource & drop rate multiplier, which could probably either reset 24 hours after you did the first one or when doing a non-quick quest, and after 3 or maybe 5 quick quests it could gurantee a gold dahlia badge and give an additional chest till maybe it caps to giving 5 additional chest rewards (after say, 15 quick quests for that `24 hour period), every quick quest past that and a gold dahlia badge every quick quest. While having multi player double the rewards instead of guranting the badge and the tickets would just let you add +1 to it period, no online requirements at all so one can stop staring at 99/99 gold tickets in storage. Very least this way when the ability to play online for GBF: Relink can`t happen anymore, it would let it still work as a stand alone game.
As for how they could push it into a rogue-like mode, well, a solo only version of quick quests might be nice that maybe trade off chain bursts and link time by giving buffs as you progress that could serve as an alternative way to get dahlia badges and maybe push players to enjoy favorites more then `meta cheesies or something.` Probably be too much to ask for at this point, but if they were to suddenly take a Xenoblade chronicles 3 approach due to game popularity, i can totally see them re-rigging some content with some basic tweaks and easily adding a dozen or two dozen new kinds of buffs you get for running thru hyper scaled up versions of particular bosses and having things like movement speed buffs, break power buffs and more could even fix some issues in particular characters, make them feel awesome like most rogue-lite modes in many games do, even when the character itself is normally `bad` in the standard gameplay loop of said game.
-Quick-scrap during Transmute/marvel screen and max capacity of Vouchers when GBF:Relink team?: Deeeefinitely one of my earliest complaints because im sure even if its to match up with the cap of 30, on multiple transmutes, it would be nice while looking at the list of pulled sigils, if i could say, press Square on my PS5 controller and immediately scrap those back to vouchers, when i `exit` the results screen, like how a number of games have with similar `pulling` systems. With of course, i think it would be nice to loop around 400~ sigils per voucher cap stock instead of going back-forth every 40, even if multi-rolls cut the spam down from 39 `rolls` to only 2, even if it might of been smoother to let us have a button to just roll as many time as we have vouchers instead.
-With just to finish things up, probably a more tuned up filter system: This is more of a minor gripe but it would be nice if i could select a specific sigil effect so i can only see sigils of that specific type. Despite the fact they have icons to SLIGHTLY differ certain effects(Too bad thats not the case with all so its a dissonance design headache with that), its still a bit of an eye-sore when i could be checking 10 or more sigils of a specific category. Especially if im say, wanting to only look at my sigils with Critical hit rate to drag out a particular combination i want to optimize-match up a build without overlap issues.
Anywho, what else do you guys think the game could use, if we are guranteed further updates, even if they will be `unplanned` after 1.3.1, which as far as im aware of, outside of impossible Lucy and Sandy, is mostly just additional character improvements and transmutation Synthesis, which we still have no idea what kind of resources it will require, if it will be locked behind defeating impossible lucy first and if it will be more unreasonable by requiring something like 10 copies of a sigil with a specific effect to `allow` you to remove the secondary effect on a sigil to replace it with the one you want from the 10 copies.
Probably wont be that extreme, but its likely not gonna be as simple as Transmarvel i would think, to force people to keep having to burn vouchers for `sigil fodder` atleast...

2024.05.14 07:18 Southern-Revolution8 Random migraine episode ??

Two days ago I had the worse headache ever. I usually get migraines but this one was so bad I remember telling my boyfriend “I think I’m dying”. The pain was intense and eventually I was crying and throwing up, couldn’t sit up, couldn’t stand the light, was shivering and sweating(I remember being cold and hot it was weird). I couldn’t control my breathing. Idk what that was but a few hours later under my boyfriend’s watchful eye I woke up and my fever had broken. I’ve had a lingering migraine since but … has this happened to anyone? Should I go to the doctor?

2024.05.14 06:23 alexngrace IIH Diagnosis, spinal tap, migraines, flashing vision?

Hi, I just got diagnosed with IIH last Tuesday at the ER. The people didn’t tell me much, just that I had a lot of pressure that needed to be relieved behind my eyes. They also told me I don’t fit the usual criteria for this phenomenon. I am 5’2 115lbs 23 female. I received the lumbar puncture early Wednesday morning and had quite the regular day afterwards. Slight soreness and pain around the puncture site but nothing out of sorts. Thursday late morning, a really terrible headache started to come on and I had to lay down or the pain was unbearable. Waited a day or two for it to pass and returned to the ER on Saturday morning because my head was pounding so bad that I could barely roll out of bed and dress myself. ER said I needed lots of fluid, put me on an IV drip, some magnesium, ibuprofen, Tylenol, a caffeine pill and a little bit later they gave me one diamox pill. All my head pain went away within 45mins to an hour. The neuro-ophthalmology team came to see me and said my headaches don’t seem to line up with a spinal tap leak but I do need to drink more fluids (which I’m TERRIBLE at) and that they don’t think they need to keep me on a diamox prescription. It’s Monday night now and I’m still having the headaches and pain with sitting upright and moving my eyes around especially to the peripheral up down and side to side. My visual mobility is starting to return quite a bit. BUT when I do move my eyes to the peripherals I get a black and white flashing in my vision. I’m absolutely scared it means something terrible and I’m nervous to call the ER again because I don’t want them to tell me I am fine again and that it’s just another symptom of recovery. Is this normal or can someone explain to me what’s going on? I’m scared :(
On another note, I have kind of recreated the ERs migraine cocktail and nothing is working the same for me as the original hospital cocktail. The only thing I am missing is that diamox pill. Does anyone else experience headaches going away with diamox? I’m starting to think they made a mistake not prescribing and neuro-ophthalmology is super hard to get in contact with at the hospital that has my case :(
Any help, personal experience, recommendations and advice is appreciated. I’m lost, scared and nervous about all of this and it is still a big shock to me.

2024.05.14 06:09 FriendlyMelk Does anyone know what this is? Right side so painful that I can't rest on it without throbbing, tinnitus, intense pain

This has been going on for months, maybe a year. I cannot lay on the right side and it's hard for me to sit down properly because of the pain in my groin. My whole body begins vibrating/ throbbing and I get a tinnitus in my right ear. It feels like the whole right side of my body is tense/ bruised, especially in the groin and hip area, lower back and flank, going up the neck and to the temple, inner corner of eye/ nose. My right shoulder is also a lot more sore than the left. It feels like someone punched me in the hip. My right knee is also extremely painful sometimes and under I'm always sore under my right foot.
I have a doctors appointment tomorrow and was hoping that someone has had this happen to them and knows what it is or how to make it better 😥

2024.05.14 05:57 Inevitable_Essay_861 Could Dry Socket Cause Flu-Like Symptoms?

Edit to add: No alcohol, no smoking. I do have hEDS and possibly MCAS in case that may be relevant.
Hello,
I had my furthest back upper molar pulled last week. It took two appointments because the root was touching my sinus cavity. It sounds like my sinus cavity is still intact but my dentist today (four days after final extraction appointment) told me I had dry socket after I came in suspecting an infection.
I could taste and feel a warm, nasty substance draining from my tooth starting Friday (10th) and started noticing a foul oder and taste in my mouth Saturday. Sunday I woke up with very severe flu-like symptoms (no fever but I was taking lots of OTC pain relievers that also combat fevers) and started getting concerned that this was an infection. My extraction site itself doesn’t hurt much. I have some ear and neck pain, and smiling or opening my mouth wide hurts but otherwise it’s just mildly achy, which is why I hadn’t suspected dry socket. I haven’t taken any pain relievers at all today (hoping to catch whether or not I have a fever) and there still hasn’t been much pain.
About an hour after they applied a dry socket “paste” I started to feel a little better, AND I’d been out of work for several days so I’m not sure how I could have gotten sick, so I’m wondering if it’s possible for dry socket to manifest like an illness rather than pain? Maybe my sickness is unrelated and I’m just lucky it doesn’t hurt as bad? I just wanted to get some other thoughts or experiences.

2024.05.14 05:26 Silent-Advantage2426 AITA for yelling at my foster mother during a doctor visit?

To give a bit of a backstory, I have been experiencing pain in my body for about 2 years of my life, I then entered care last year in January. Since I entered care the pain has gotten increasingly worse. It happens everywhere in my body on my fingers, wrists, ankles, thighs, feet, head, ears, arms, back, and especially my chest as the pain can be so terrible I can not function properly. Certain tasks such as work, cleaning, and moving have become so stressful and painful that I have to sleep/rest for hours just to regain some strength. To top it off, every 3-5 days I get fever-like symptoms, but when test results such as my temperature are checked everything is normal.
The Doctors who would at first give me simple medication assuming it was just sprains or anxiety. I disagreed with their opinions and refused to take the medication. We tried countless doctors until we went to a new one an hour away and they took some blood tests, only thing that came up different was I had a positive ANA test result. The pain worsened And as it did I would complain only to be told by my mother to stop my complaining, that she doesn't care and I shouldn't tell her because she can't do anything.
The Same doctor who took the blood test gave me medication. I took 6 medications I would take for about 4 weeks. The pain unfortunately continued to occur with an increase of headaches than normal and I was exhausted.
Today we went to the same doctor to follow up on the medicine. I told the doctor how I felt during the medication, and after that my foster parent and doctor went outside the room, I heard them talk about how it was all in my head and that I had psychological problems. When they came into the room I told them I wasn't lying about the pain. They reassured me they didn't think I was lying but then my foster mom went into what they said “We don't think you're lying, we think it's in your head. You pick and choose medication and you only feel better when you get things.” When I tell you I blew up, I blew up. I yelled at my foster mother “How dare you say something like that! You just implied that I'm lying about it!” I continued to yell at her “You don't know anything about me!”
To me personally when she said I only feel better when I get things it makes it seem like I fake the pain so I can get out of things or get things. She then compared me to the gypsy Rose situation and said it was similar. I was now enraged, I told her if I ever found out what I had and it was something that wasn't in my head, she was going to apologize. They left the room, and I just started crying.
This foster mother had the tendency to tell others it was all in my head like my case worker and CASA (court representative) .
I was starting to think maybe I was wrong to lash out at my foster mother like that, that me yelling at her and accusing her of lying to me was wrong. If you have any information or tips on what I'm dealing with I would appreciate it.

2024.05.14 04:56 cumpelstiltskin Need Advice on Amoxicillin

Hello, reddit doctors, I need your advice on what I should do
Background: 41 years old, physically fit male, first got sick late april (27-28th with severe flu like symptoms. Around May 4, I went to urgent care, got covid flu test done (all negative), had conjunctivitis in eyes (got antibiotic cream) and also did throat swab. Doctor at urgent care wouldnt give me oral antibiotics until throat culture came back. Next few days i was running low grade fever and I wanted antibiotics so I called telehealth and convinced a doctor to give me amoxicillin (500mg x 3 x 10 days). The throat culture ended up negative but i continued on the amoxicillin anyways as my symptoms drastically improved.
So i screwed up. On friday May 10th i was feeling much better so I decided to go out and have a few drinks. Later that night, the Aurora borealis was out, and i made a poor life decision. So I have adhd and for years I was taking adderall and dexedrine. I completely quit these drugs 2.5 years ago, but still had some left. So on friday night, I took some dexedrine, and having no tolerance anymore, I ended up on a weekend bender not sleeping, being high, not eating well, and just not taking care of myself. I kept using until sunday afternoon
Sunday night I started coughing a bit again. Fast forward to today (monday), i managed to sleep 6.5 hours, but I feel shitty and I keep bringing up bright yellow phlegm or sputum, my throat is kinda sore (probably from dry mouth), and now Im worried i might have ruined my amoxicillin treatment. Im obviously in withdrawal from my adhd meds and im tired, but I also i have a weird tingly metallic taste in my mouth.
I have two days left of amoxicillin, and im worried my infection will come back with a vengeance and be resistant to antibiotics once it is done. What should I do? Stop worrying, or should i get more antibiotics?
Sorry this ran a bit long.

2024.05.14 04:53 Mission_Goose_6984 Vasovagal when recovering from a bug?

Hi everyone!
I am 25F, Caucasian, 127 lbs, 5’2”, non-smoking. I am currently on levothyroxine for suspected subclinical hypothyroidism. Previous blood tests did reveal that I have high lipoprotein a.
I recently contracted a bug and started having symptoms on May 9, 2024. It consisted of a fever for the first few days, extreme fatigue, sore throat and cough. Jump to today, May 13, 2024, I still have the fatigue, and wet cough. I had to return to work today, and I actually felt ok this morning, so I wore a mask and I was good for about 2 hours, then I began to have what my doctor has described in the past as a Vasovagal reaction (without losing consciousness, as I know it’s coming and can sit down ASAP). The past reaction was completely unrelated and random. I had 3 “reactions” in the span of 5-10 minutes today, and ultimately left work. I have never had this when healing from sickness prior. I have been taking cold meds and muscle and joint pills to help aid my symptoms since the 9th.
I am likely going to take tomorrow off as well, however, I’m not sure what to do so this does not happen again. My job requires you to be on your feet. My doctor is hard to get into on such short notice! Any help is appreciated!

So this friend of mine for many years has multiple pets. About 10 years ago I took care of them for a while when I was jobless. However since then she has slacked off on house-cleaning, and increased the number of pets. She currently has 5 cats and a dog.
She doesn't have many friends so if she has to go out of town on a weekend, she will ask if I will pet-sit.
Unfortunately for the last several years, and worse since I had Covid, I've had allergic reactions every time I pet-sit at her house. Originally I felt it was just changing the litter so I told her I could pet-sit but wouldn't clean litter boxes.
I would get flu-like symptoms every time I stayed at her place overnight. Often congestion, but also headache, fever, etc. A couple of times last year it was so bad I was convinced I had caught Covid again, though I tested negative.
So this past weekend she had to leave town suddenly due to a death in her family, and I agreed to pet-sit Friday & Saturday night. No litterboxes to be cleaned, she has automated litterboxes now, that can go for longer between cleanings...
So ... Saturday morning, I wake up with a pounding headache.... It seemed to get slightly better so I went about my day, but it was nagging me the whole day. I had to leave for a few hours as well. I had noticed my heartrate was up higher than normal, but just noted that to the side. I wasn't having any congestion so hadn't realized it was the allergies again. Thought I lucked out.
By late evening I had to cancel my plans, I had a fever, much higher than normal heartrate, etc. My plans involved a lot of activity and the extra activity pushed my heartrate out of a safe range and I was starting to get lightheaded and feel faint, so I immediately cancelled the plans and went to a family member's house for a few hours. Heartrate went down but was still elevated. I do take a single medication, which lowers my blood pressure and heartrate normally, so having it up is something I watch closely. I connected it to the allergies at this point.
I was feeling a little better, but still lousy, and went back to my friend's house for the second night of pet-sitting. Ended up having chills when I went outside even though the temps were only in the upper 60s. Slept terribly, and basically had no energy all day Sunday. Heartrate was down but still higher than my normal base heart rate. Ended up sleeping most of Sunday. Managed the drive home. Back at my own place, I slept great and felt perfectly normal this morning.
The reaction this time was so strong, that I'm afraid I'm going to have to tell my friend I can't ever stay at her place again. I know part of the issue is she does not keep a clean house, so it smells strongly of her pets. That's never going to change.
Would it be worth trying an allergy medication? I know most of the allergy meds on the market are basically placebos. At this point though it has moved beyond simply congestion to something that actually is a health risk.
Opinions?

Hi y'all, I've been seeing a rheumatologist for a couple months. It started with gastro symptoms, and then continued to arthritis, itching but no rash, fatigue, muscle weakness, swollen tender lymphnodes in neck arm pit and groin, cheat pain, pain with deep breaths, rolling low grade fevers (37.4 to 38.2) and weight loss. I have a 320 ANA, 320 speckled and 320 homogeneous ANA. I was diagnosed yesterday with Adult Stills disease but I'm having a hard know if stomach issues are involved.
