Have A Good Old Moan....

Think I've caught the norovirus that was doing the rounds over Xmas 🙁

I was so excited to recieve my Osmo colour save shampoo - open it and discovered i ordered the conditoner! ops!

Which i note contains a lot of silicone... 🙁

Oh god, you poor thing! I had that about 4 years ago and it was a killer! At the risk of TMI, I was sat on the toilet with my head over the basin at the same time, the worst thing ever.

Just don't go anywhere because it's so contagious, even after you feel ok. 🙁 I hope you feel better soon though.

Yeah, you won't be able to go anywhere! I was literally so weak that I spent three days dragging myself from bed to bathroom. It's horrible.

I've had this for the last 5 days, and janine's right, it's awful!  And janine - I've had exactly the same thing (even if it is TMI! lol!), There's been times over the last few days when I've been sitting on the toilet and leaning over the sink at the same time!  It's lucky that my bathroom is small and the sink is close to the toilet!  It's been so bad that for the first 3 days I couldn't even keep water down!  On the plus side though, I've lost half a stone, so silver linings and all.....

Thanks all 🙂 Luckily I seem to be a lot better today, still going to be careful for a while though 🙂

That's good 😀

I went back to work too soon (they hadn't really made it known at that point that it was super contagious even after you felt better) and kept feeling faint. I have never fainted, but I got close!

I felt like that too a few times, all of Saturday and yesterday I just felt really weak and had no appetite 🙁

Just found one of those people where it's like "where have you been all my life" but she has the same problems as me and she lives miles away from where I go to uni so I can barely see her and I'm so happy and so devastated all at once and I don't know what to feel.

Boots have discontinued their Ingredients Coconut and Almond deep conditioner!!!! Nooooooo!

You can still get it online according to their website. Stock up while you can?!

really? i looked online and couldnt see it =[

Ooh, I dunno then, I just went to their site on my phone, searched "coconut almond" and up it popped.  Maybe it's out of stock and the mobile website doesn't register that?

ETA: their Curl Creme was unavailable for bloomin' ages but according to reviews is now on sale again (hooray!!) so maybe this is just a temporary supply blip with the condish too.

Ugh, my P.E. teacher.
He randomly walked into our changing room today which I found really creepy :/
This gets really long now, but I'd appreciate it if someone could read it and give me advice:
He made us do an exercise where you'd run and bend down every few steps - messed with my circulation, obviously.
So I try to cope with it in a way and lean up against the wall. I thought I'd be fine in a few seconds because I just felt a bit dizzy. I don't know if anyone on here has ever collapsed because they have low blood pressure, but when I do, I usually start seeing everything in shades of blue & purple....that happened. I started freaking out and crying, grabbed my friends shoulder and she dragged me into the changing room so I could take my meds and all. The teacher saw us leave, with me crying and her screaming at another friend to tell the teacher and he never checked up on us.
Then I ended up on the changing room floor, crying, feet propped up on a bench to get some blood flowing to my head again or whatever - he still didn't come to see if I was alright.
My friend ran out to tell him and he made me go to this weird little room where I could lie down. There were loads of things he could have given me to rest my legs on (and he didn't even know you where supposed to do that? I'm pretty sure P.E. teachers need to take first aid classes!), like bags with clothes that people left behind. What did he give me? A garbage bag. Which was actually filled with garbage.
So I was just hanging out on a bench, feet on a garbage bag and close to fainting. He tells my friend to go back to the class and leaves, telling me he'd get someone to look after me. This took about 5 minutes and I'm sure the law says he was not allowed to leave me alone in an emergency situation. Another girl came in, looked after me for a while and then he told her to come back and participate, leaving me alone again.
When I went back to the group after about 30 minutes (I did not want a teacher that is commonly accused of being a pedophile to come into a room I was in while I was pretty much helpless), he actually wanted me to participate again - I refused & he accused me of trying to get out of class. Excuse me? I was shaking, I couldn't see straight and I was hardly able to walk on my own.
(Also, any other teacher would have asked if I was okay, if I wanted my mum to pick me up or if I needed to go the hospital - he didn't, but this is not that bad, I guess.)
Great work, teacher guy, really.
So if anyone actually read the whole thing - would you suggest I talk to another teacher (i.e. the teacher who is in charge of my year or the head teacher), or should I just get a note from my doctor saying I can't participate anymore until I'm back to full health again?

Edit: I've posted about this same teacher before, though we never actually reported him for some reason, but this was the last straw for me - if he touches my knee, I can deal with it, but if he doesn't care about my health or any emergencies, then I'm done.

Naomi,

Ok, the way you were treated was appalling. When I was in PE (years ago), if someone had been like you, the teacher would have had another student walk you to the nurse, if you could walk, and if not, lie you on a mat with your feet propped-NOT on a bag of garbage, and sent a student to get the nurse.

Your teacher obviously caused you additional stress, which is not ok, and could have exacerbated your condition. He's a dumbass. If you feel you'd actually be heard, I'd start by speaking with your Head of Year. If you get nowhere with that, speak to the Head Teacher.  Also, if you really feel that you can't, and don't want to cope with Mr Jerk anymore, by all means get a Dr's note until you feel better. Next time could be worse.

I hope you're able to resolve this. Had I been there, I would have screamed at him. And been expelled for it, but still...
