I'm actually losing it bro

I have a fever of 104 now that's been gradually getting worse, have barely slept for 3 days, and am having debilitating lethargy/joint pain

She keeps giving me painkillers like Tylenol/Ibuprofen to lower the fever (which they're only doing mildly)

But I just woke up at 5AM from extreme head & body pain and high fever and she brought ice cream from downstairs to "cool my body down" and isn't taking my complaints of literally not being able to move seriously

And I overheard her and my dad mutter "Wtf can the emergency room/hospital do, he's just gonna sit in a waiting room"

Why the f*** are Asian parents actually clueless

I feel delirious and confused now and idk what to do

UPDATE: We went to the Urgent Care but the woman there was like "rest and fluids!" & gave some tylenol and sent me on the way, even after I told her I was having extreme joint pain and felt like I was dying

The PCR test and rapid flu test came back negative for flu, COVID, RSV

I'm still f***ing sick idk what this s*** is

I felt symptoms around 3 hours after going to a massage parlor

UPDATE 2: Went to ER and they DX me with pneumonia after a chest x ray

Fun stuff

I thought Asian culture has its own natural remedies to stuff like this, sorry to hear this op

try to do this:

• wet some socks in vinegar and then wear them overnight while you sleep

and before y'all b**** about socks in vinegar I can assure you this works and it's a traditional remedy from Eastern Europe

our feet are connected to all organs and vinegar is like holy water for the body

(also the aim is to have you sweat the most you can, while drinking lots of teas and water)

Your parents are right..you’re going to sit in the waiting room

what's better though ice cream or an actual hospital to make sure it's just the flu and not smth else

as an asian person too, i dont think ive ever been taken to an emergency room/hospital for being sick. I just take medicine until i feel better

Are you 12? Just go to ER/urgent care if your worried

Lurking Drizzy wheelchair meme coming to reality

104 ain’t no joke

Y’all seen osmosis Jones?

Vinegar is like holy water for the body?

That was thoughtful

Of course if it persists for longer take yourself to an urgent care. I know for a fact you’ll just sit in a hospital waiting room, maybe be given some fluids and the same medication you can take at home.

Doctors & scientists hate this one simple trick!

Bro uber to the emergency room

104 over 3 days is crazy

Goto the ER and collapse as soon as you get in there

Praia why you delete

American education system

If you’re taking both Tylenol and ibuprofen together and your fever is still 104 on them, you need to go to get evaluated.

Wypipo

Brings it down by a degree but it comes back up one degree higher than before after a few hours

How old are you

If you're worried go to the hospital
