Sound like whatever you're doing is working really well, judging from the symptoms you are getting. You must feel horrible though :(
I would be interested as to what kind of cleansing you've been doing, have you blogged about it anywhere??

My suggesting would be to NOT take the fever down with drugs but other means if you really feel the need to do so. The fever is your friend, your body is creating heat to kill off whatever needs to be expelled from your body. You take it down with drugs you are stopping this way of elimination immediately.

Other ways to bring down fever would be tofu packs on your forehead for example. Buy a pack of tofu, put it in the fridge and hold it against your forehead when desired. When your temperature is back in the save zone, stop.
Or cold wraps around your calves works well too. Bowl of cold water, two towels, soak, wring out and then wrap around your calves. Again stop when temp is back in save zone and sweat it out otherwise ;)

All the best with it!!

It just works well in drawing out the heat, you could use a wet cloth too if that's all you've got :)

One of the most powerful supplements for immunity is lysine. You can take it in capsule for or it is also in millet. I have blended millet into a soup before. Or you can just cook it. A broth made with shitaki mushrooms is good for immunity. If you have the hot liquid you could use this as the base for the soup. For a more raw soup you could just blend this broth with the millet. I think the honey could be feeding the virus. You should take high doses of vitamin c or get your vitamin c from juiced vegetables. Tomato red pepper juice or soup would be good.Thyme is one of the best anti-bacterial herbs out there. Add this to water if making a broth o just eat straight. Fresh is best of course!

I hope you feel better soon!

thanks all. I'm going to a naturopath today to put my parents at ease. It's weird because I don't feel THAT sick. I was shocked to see 103 + on my thermometer reading. I thought it was wrong and made my boyfriend go out and get another thermometer just to be sure.

I'd prefer to just sweat it out, but my mom scared me into taking synthetic drugs. She's worried about h1n1 or pnuemonia.

I've never been to a naturopath. I haven't really been to the doctor since I've been raw going on a year now. I only get sick after I do an intense fast. Kind of makes me want to avoid it in the future. It's good to hear that I'm doing something RIGHT, though. Rather than doing it wrong.

I'll stop the honey. I still have an appetite which is unusual for having such a high fever. I've been craving bananas and red pepper with sliced avocado and apple slices with grated ginger and cinnamon. I just juiced two apples, a bulb of garlic, lemon, and ginger (yuck) so I will be sipping on that throughout the day.

thanks again for all your advice. I've been meaning to blog about it, but I haven't found the time :/

Oh I should have mentioned star anise and oregano leaf. They are really good for killing off viruses. The anidote for the flu is made with star anise- so much so- it is hard to find. I found mine in an asian food store.

When I was sick recently I took both. I also craved apples and ginger juice and carrot ginger juice. If you do that take some greens with it too. I was also hungrier than usual. I read another advised remedy for it specifically is 500 mg of vitamin c. Nyquil got in trouble for trying to add vitamin c to their product. It is weird- like the fda wants people to stay sick with no chance of providing vitamin c without going out of their way to get it.

I will be curious what your Dr. says..=)

Everybody around me is sick and still busy at work. I am feeling more mucous build-up right now, and I must be fighting the infection. Nothing more than the slightest feeling. Everybody else seems to be hacking up a lung. Linus Pauling was the first to be recognized for the vitamin c theory about how to reduce the effects of the common cold and flu. That was about 26 years ago and now almost totally forgotten or pushed aside by the medical community. Awesome Universe as per usual you're right at the hub of the issue. But I use fruit loaded with vitamin c like kiwi instead of drugs.
And I'm not curious to what any Doctor has to say anymore when all they want is to make more money. That's why the vitamin c thing didn't take off.

So your saying that if a person increases their intake of V C it can ward off a cold/flu? Interesting.....

thanks

I love kiwis! I used one plus half an apple and about a cup of kale for my smoothie today. You can go lower glycemic with kiwis because they have such a powerful taste. I think the seeds get rid of parasites as well!
