hey guys are you sure this was all picked up at the daycare? For those of you who had the typical indigestion problems that is probably because of the way we all eat at the LANs ie. junk food and sugary drinks with lots of caffeine. I know i get these symptoms at every LAN no matter where we are just because i eat so damn bad.

for those with the cold symptoms. Most colds have at least a 3-4 day incubatory period don't they? It is the season for this crap to go around.

I'm just concerned that the LAN is getting a undeserved bad rap.

sounds like vondouche and fullmetalalchemist unfortunetly have a nasty cold.

If we would have had the LAN at a holiday inn the chances would have probably been higher to catch something considering how many different people they have going in and out of their facilities.

I hope that you guys don't abandon the York Lan because i certainly look forward to all of you there. Maybe we need to take some precautions for all of our events considereing we strain our bodies at these events that lead to the weakening of our immune systems.

i think for the 100ml Im gonna bring some OJ or vit C supplements.

Stop crying! Seriously, people get sick, and then they get better. It’s like we have the friggen grand martial to 'Teh Draemah Parade' © on our hands. If you want to make a post about how you got sick and you think it might have been at the LAN, that’s fine, whatever. But when you say stuff like "Ill have to rethink going back next time", now come on... that’s just a little overboard. Granted, if you are going to be coming out of surgery again perhaps it’s not the best idea to go. But you can’t possibly put the blame here on the LAN. It’s a public place, you find germs there… ‘THE MORE YOU KNOW!’.

there are reasons to be concerned. if you bothered to read the thread, you would know this.

i will be going to do dr for this, because it hasnt got any better over the last week or so. this is going to cause me to come off the steroids that i am on to reproduce my pitutary gland.

so xankriz, Fudge off this is a important issue to my health.

I don't believe that he is trying to trivialize your particular situation Nick. I think he is trying to say that sickeness happens when you get groups of people together. Obviously, your recent medical conditions, as you yourself pointed out, have greatly affected your ability to handle a cold. Not surprising really considering your body is trying to heal itself.

I also believe that he is trying to state that in public gatherings, its a numbers game. The more people you have together, the greater the risk of people being sick.

Heck, my wife/daughter had strep before and after the LAN. It mite have been me and not the daycare that got you sick.

To extend the analogy, to say since I got sick after going to school today, I am not going back may be a bit of a stretch.

I just think you are more sensitive this then others. I may be the one that is wrong. I don't think he was attacking you personally though, more of a general hey sheits happens type of post. Welcome to life and all.
