Motion sickness

You hang out with bunch of sick friends, and you thought that your body could handle those small amount of bacterial invasion. You're wrong. Worst, you shared foods and drinks with them sick people. You picked up more of bacteria. You didn't notice that until you feel uncomfortable ingesting food. It was terrible. Yet, you were being optimist about not being infected.

Later that day, you felt so cold while everybody else was enjoying the warmth. You were being overly sensitive and small things could make you cry. You realized that you weren't in a good shape. Massive headache, runny nose, frequent visit to bathroom, body aching all over and elevated body temperature tell that you're having a fever.

Welcome to the club! That's what you get from being such an ignorant.

Some tips to make you reduce your body temperature;
One, sleep shirtless, and put wet towel under your arm(pit). You will feel uncomfortable, but the coldness will go away in few minutes. Also, put another wet towel on your forehead. Change every 15-30 minutes. This would reduce your 'hot-ness'.
Two, wear socks.
Three, wrap yourself in your fluffy comforter. You'll get sweat and that's a good sign.
Four, drink plenty of water. Don't worry if you visit your bathroom 10 times in an hour. Heat is being removed. But keep drinking, or else you'll get dehydrated.
Five, sleep.

The reason why you get elevated body T is because your body is building a protection against the infection. It's called inflammation response. Your immunological cells are currently battling with the infection. Frankly, I don't know the details of the mechanism behind the action itself. Yet, we're trying so hard to reduce our body T. How irony.

Having someone to take care of you while you're half-dead is good. Especially your roommate. But you don't get to choose your friend. Nor you can make them stay to take care of you.
