Went out with some friends last night, didn't wear enough clothes, smoked too much, drank too much. And now, feeling like absolutely shit.

FREEZING all over especially in the extremities, pounding headache, diarrhea waves and torrents, extreme lethargy/jelly limbs, and nauseous.

I haven't felt this sick in as long as I can remember (prolly 5+ years), so far I've just taken some Advil.

Any advice on how to get better fast? I absolutely can't take time off of work to see a doctor, and my knowledge of flu/cold remedies is quite lacking.

Yup. Spend the rest of the day in bed as much as possible.

You did something stupid so you have to suffer the consequences, no medicine will help you with that.

Drink plenty of water as well. Hung over with the shits is a quick recipe for dehydration.

If you have a good medical insurance and can't take time off of work, just call the emergency in the evening, they'll pick you up, do a full check-up, let you go in the morning, all that for free :D

edit : Oh and beware of fake alcohol containing methanol if you're in China.

Yeah mostly you're just hung over. Word of advice there are two parts to it: 1 being super dehydrated 2 mild alcohol withdrawal. Can't do anything about the second, just a few advil for the symptoms but for the former drink a ton of fluid, and if you pee a bunch ensure to keep drinking.

When you go out drinking mix a pint of water with the pints of beer or the shots!

And if you drink mixed drinks you deserve this.

The only thing I can really tell you is that you have to stay hydrated you need to force yourself to drink a lot of water. Other than that I don't know what to tell you to fix hangovers, sorry. Good luck though!

Your first response is to post on TL asking for help... Just go see a doctor if you feel like the world is ending... then he'll tell you that you have a hangover.

100ml of vodka will help with most hangovers but again - there is the danger of cycles, so choose wisely.

Hangover + what sounds like the flu, there's no magic cure you'll probably need at least a day or two.

Take some ORS and change the Advil to Paracetamol and load up on it. That combined with a good night sleep should fix a hangover, if it does not get better by tomorrow go see a doctor.

Thanks for the replies, just woke up, been napping for the past 4 hours and my temperature is 39C X_X

I just called the genuine product authentication number on the back of liquor bottle and gave the operator the PIN. Surprise surprise, they didn't have the PIN in their database and we got ripped off.

I just hope it was a cheaper natural liquor put into the bottles, and not some chemical mix of water and dirt cheap industrial alcohol.

Never take more tylenol than what it says on the label, it's one of the most commonly overdosed drugs in the world.

Could be just a hangover. Could be toxicity.

See a doctor.

Well i'm not a doctor, but you may be hung over, or caught the flu or something. I'd say just sleep all day drink water, if you still feel bad go to the doctor.

Seems like you simply just had a bit too much of alcohol. No need to freak out. Happens. Just take some painkillers, drink lots of water, fluids, possible some soda to get some sugar, and sleep sleep sleep. No need to worry unless tomorrow you still feel like shit. But even then it could just be flu. I mean there is really no need to freak out.

There's no such things as cold and flu remedies, both are viral infections for which antibiotics do not work. Only thing you can do is rest, drink fluids, and wait for your immune system to take care of it.

Your symptoms are pretty severe, you really should go see a medical professional. If you want to be dumb and tough it out, I'd say first thing should be to take something for the GI problems so you don't any more dehydrated than you already are and make sure you're regularly drinking water. That should take care of most of the symptoms.

The freezing could be due to a fever, make sure you check your temperature. If it's more than 104, go to the hospital. Losing your job is of small concequence if you're dead.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly's a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

That is correct indeed. Yet when doses correctly it is way less harmfull than an NSAID is, which is why it is preferred. You may take up to 4g a day, and since it is most commonly sold as 500mg those are 8 doses a day. I really do not understand how people who take more then 8 doses of a medicine do not check the folder first for the risks though to be honest. (unless with children, there I understand that people can make mistakes like that because of the adjusted doses)
But you are right though, should have added the maximum here!

People get perscription doses of a NSAID and then take too many because they don't feel well. Next thing you know they're vomitting blood.
