sick days

i'm back! well, actually, i'm not sure that i'll be updating consistantly, but i am here tonight cause i got sick again and need to catalogue it for future reference. so, for all the gory details, please read on (would not recommend you to do so!)
this morning. was awake on and off for about an hour before i decided to actually get up. had some stomache pain (started period during the night so i thought it was that). went to bathroom to dump and stomache hurt more. realized wat was going on and said 'oh shit' and then started to feel like throwing up. didn't. hadn't eaten in nearly 14 hours so wat was there to throw up? feeling very queasy and weak. dumped again. no runs tho (unusual). started sweating and feeling very cold. stumbled to bed. started feeling worse so called rip. couldn't really talk, moaned out that i was sick again and asked him to come over. lay on bed for a while, tried to gather strength to go downstairs to unlock door. was in fetal position on my left side. noticed left arm was going numb. managed to flop onto back and realized that no, both arms numb. all the way up to my shoulder. hands in weird positions, fingers together, unbent. able to move, however. slowly. closed left hand into weak fist, fingers sorta stayed in that position. legs started going numb too (all leg). i have never noticed the numbness before... is this new?
when no longer numb (couple minutes), stumbled and nearly fell down stairs to unlock door. dumped again. retched a few times. feeling really terrible. lay on wood floor cause it was cold and i was burning up. started to feel cold again. nothing nearby so curled up but remembered the arm going numb thing. got into kneelin position to try to get back upstairs. retched again. made myself throw up in the empty plant saucer thing on floor. first just throwing up white foam. but retching deeeeeep. so got up stomach acid and eventually this bright yellow stuff (like egg yolk). terrible tasting. when nearly done, reep came in. afterwards it looked like i had cracked open an egg in the dish and had just started frying it. very disgusting.
reep carried me upstairs (my hero!). very cold. eventually warmed up and started to feel better. reep left, i took a short nap and afterwards felt pretty much better. stomach slightly queasy but basically okay. think imma call the doctor next week. now i have two 'documented cases'. wonder wat's wrong?

Very glad you're back.  But what a way to make a return.  I hope you feel better soon and let me know if you need anything.
