CannaGranny’s Corner a Thread For General BS and Good Will On BudBuilders

CannaGranny said:
Why are you running a constant fever?
Click to expand...
well, i thought it was strep initially, but that turned out not to be the case. When I talked with the doc on Wednesday, he basically shrugged and said "i dunno what it is, so just treat the fever with tylenol and ibuprofen, alternate every few hours." which is awesome, because now I'm waking up at 4AM running at 103F, this morning it was 104F, and don't have the energy to go get the pills let alone choke em down.

So I just ride it out until the fever starts to taper around 7AM and then try to choke some pills down. this is where it gets real fun -- then the tylenol and ibuprofen break the fever and i literally just sweat. for. hours. No reason to be sweating either, but I just am. it's disgusting. I look like freaking a pale aquaman in the mirror, all glisteny and shiny with bags under my eyes lol.

If it's not gone by Wednesday, I'm going back in and telling him do whatever tests he needs to figure out wtf this is because I've never had a sore throat last more than a few days, let alone a fever that's going on day 8 today.

That’s a long time to be running a fever like that with no definitive answers. One of the side effects with Covid for men is severe night sweats. But, many more things can manifest that as well.
Please don’t wait til Wednesday, get on the phone and be seen today. He blew you off as a mystery illness possibly strep. I assure you he did not mean for you not to return, if it did not right itself within a few days.

Green Crack, A Runtz and a Trainwrck to start, I 'll need 6 and I'm not sure how many different strains I want. I might just settle with those 3 but I'll know better after the drop into water is done. I can change my mind in a flash.

I grew one called Runtz Wreck last round. A cross between Runtz and Trainwreck. After a good cure…ohhhh goodness what tasty hard hitting flower!

I can't remember which Runtz I have, I've them all locked up together, I'll pull them out tonight to soak what I need. I know I've others I just received I'd like to try but my fuzzy grey can't recall them right now.

yes ma'am. i'll get my butt in gear and see what their schedule is today. doing some googling, my symptoms are aligning with mono pretty accurately, and given I have two young kids in school, it would not be far fetched to assume those shitheads brought something like that home.

Well it’s time! Thank you! My Sister got mono from her grand kids! Said she didn’t even get a kiss! 😂
Glad you are searching for answers. If the body can’t overcome something alone meaning sans antibiotics in 4-5 days it’s not likely too. That profusely sweating lends to dehydration which makes the fight even harder and the fever higher.
Take care of yourself! 🙂

yeah, dehydration is my primary concern. I tend to drink roughly two gallons of water a day as it is, i've just bumped those numbers up as best as i can given my throat is so swollen it's hard to swallow anything. gotta keep fluids moving, pain or no pain though. been hospitalized too many times due to dehydration, that's never a fun trip.

however, even if it is mono, there's nothing they can do since we don't really have antiviral drugs. it's just gotta run its course, which can be anywhere from four weeks to six months. good times!

I got mono my senior year and kicked it in a week but my thyroid has been swollen ever since. A buddy of mine was bedridden for six months with it. It kicked his ass. Here's to at least some sort of recovery, since a speedy one is out the window now. 104 fevers are about as high as possible before you start to fry your brain. I'm with Granny. Get back to the doc and get a second opinion if he tries to shrug it off again. Sheisty fuckers.

Birthday cake is bad bad, the little snot heads spray their little cooties all over it, the younger are the worst, more spit than wind ..........................and ........have a piece of my birthday cake grandpa, ...........ah thanks for the death wish little one but gag me no, come on gpa, no, you and your cooties are trying to kill me no.
 
Have you taken a covid test yet? I almost never get sick but got the same symptoms you have last week. Not as serious but same symptoms nonetheless. Took a covid test to make sure and came up neg but even my doc asked me to take one after he heard my symptoms. Since I'm already down from almost cutting my hand off I was already sleeping a lot along with GF rationing what I ate and drank(No Beer...😣) so I was able to bounce back after about a week.
 
Treated myself to a new grinder yesterday, and it showed up today!
20230918_214030.jpg
I havent bought a new one in 4 years and the last one i bought was 12 bucks.
This was 10 bucks and i desperately needed a new grinder. My old one was shotttttt, 20230918_214256.jpgas you can see its missing teeth and has flat spots from being left on the roof of my car when i took off... lol

I commute to different places every day I'm in the field. About an hour is the usual.

Every once in a while, a good client wants me to do something far, far, away, because they don't want to go through the hassle of finding someone more local. Once it was 4 and a half hours, one way! He paid for that. Or, rather, his client paid for that.

I commuted 1.5 hrs each way to work for 7 years on my 750 Honda's then I was in an accident on the way home one December and broke my Tib/fib left leg. After 6 months of recovery I drove my pickup 2 hrs each way, through 47 stop lights & 7 municipalities to get to UBC hospital from Maple Ridge in Greater Vancouver.

One night on an afternoon shift I got home at 1 am, my wife was up and said the hospital called, you still have to OR keys.................................awe Fk 1.5 hrs back to work turn in the keys and head home, on the Flats through south Burnaby I got a speeding ticket. Not a sole on the road I was doing warp speeds then whoop whoop red & blue flashing lights. There goes $300 + 3 points on insurance. The dick could care less what my circumstance were just fk you here's a ticket

If you want them, better get them! He has a huge group on fakebook and they buy everything he has! That’s how I met him four years or so ago.
He has met every expectation I have in that area.
Seeds are great and in great shape.
Strain is as described.
Shipping is lightening fast.
Provides tracking.
Stands behind his products.
Germination ratios are over the top.
I just don’t feel like I could ask anymore of a seed supplier.
I do not get nor ask for any kickbacks, so it’s straight from the horses mouth.
 
Over the weekend there was a fundraiser for a charity that I work with & my work had a table. It's like a super fancy $200 a plate dinner/auction thing that a lot of the prominent local people attend. So there was a group of us meeting at my house to drive down. I had made some canna coconut oil & made some brownies with it, so I sat a bowl out & offered everyone a brownie before we left. My wife's cousin was there & she is not really a smoker, she will, but we usually end up twisting her arm to get her to take a couple one hits. My brother in law talked her into a brownie, I was in the other room when it happened or I would have recommended half, but by the time I got back she had eaten it (granted it was a small piece).

So we get to the party & I noticed she was pretty giggly & could tell the brownie was really starting to hit her. A little while later her & my wife get up to go to the bathroom, like 10 minutes later my wife comes back by herself & tells us she's freaking out having a panic attack & refusing to leave the bathroom stall. So we have to sneak her barely functioning self out of the bathroom & head back home. We took her back to our place & took care of her (hey we've all been there) the next day she said she's never done acid, but she imagines that's what a bad trip would feel like. I felt kinda bad, but she laughed about it the next day & told my wife to tell me, "your shit's no joke" 🤣
