Fucking flu. anyone have any pointers?

So I'm at my girlfriend's parents' house for Easter brunch and to meet some people in her family. I woke up feeling like death. I initially thought it was the flu, and as the day went on I was right. Fever's up over 100 now, I can't eat anything, I'm freezing cold even though it's about 85 in the room that I'm in. Also, a shitload of pain, so bad at times that it made me cry and I couldn't even tell you the last time I cried if I tried to.
So now I'm just trying to keep myself entertained so that I can keep my mind off the pain. I do wonder though, do you guys have anything you can recommend to make this less shitty? Like I said, girlfriend's parents' house, so no I don't have drugs and can't get them.
Oh also, did I mention today is my one year anniversary with my girl? The easter bunny can go fuck himself, this day has been one of the worst in recent memory.

Not a whole lot you can about a virus, really, except try to stay hydrated, maybe some aspirin or Tylenol or the like and get plenty of rest.

Might be food poisoning.
Maybe your girl's parents set you up.
Drink lots of water. Try to find a way to sleep it off.

If it's poison maybe he shouldn't drink anything. Just sit in the fetal position in the corner till you feel better. Thats usually what I do.

isn't tylenol gonna just wear down his strained system even more? i thought it only helps if you take it when first symptoms of the flu appear.

Hopefully it isn't that nasty bug that is/was going around here. In one day i went from fine to sick. Started of a head cold but it then quickly went to a fever with the chills in the same night. 10 days later I finally had to get some amoxocillin to kill a sinus infection. 20 days total of
you can try A shot of whiskey,tablespoon of honey,teaspoon of lemon.
Although I found a generic nyquil to be my best evening/night friend.

keep your nutrients and whatnot up. Gatorade and orange juice and tamaflu if the pain is bad enough to make you cry. Need a script for it, but will help greatly. Other than that, plenty of rest assuming you have no other medical conditions

I prefer to fuck my flu doggy style while loading up on dxm and sometimes acid or shrooms. This sounds more severe tho, just gotta ride that shit out and think positive

Sip whiskey, but slowly, so as not to fuck with your stomach at all.

Take 2-3 ibuprofen for the pain; it really helps. Drink lots of cold water. Most importantly... rest.

if you don't have high blood pressure or clotting problems like high cholesterol aspirin would be ideal

Eat garlic. Friggin bugs hate garlic. Not sure about viral flu but garlic beats the crap out of bacterial infections especially in the upper respiratory tract.
The way I cure myself is eating a lot of garlic blended with various veg, weed and occasionally codeine. So yeah get some garlic and report back

I recently got over the flu, twice, and an UPI. My tips: Distract yourself, drink LOTS of fluids, take drugs- fever reducers, pain killers, DXM, cannabutter. Oh yeah, one more- GET LOTS OF SLEEP! Feel better Gumby!

I'm feeling about 70-80% better today. Went to the doc. She said it was a bad viral infection for sure. She couldn't say what, but if she had to guess she would guess a very mild viral meningitis based on my symptoms. Shortly after I made this post yesterday I experienced some of the worst pain in my life. I'm glad it's almost over, because that was fucking horrible.

That sucks man. Hopefully you feel 100% soon.
It seems like everyone has been getting sick recently. There's some nasty bugs/ viruses going around apparently.
