One of us will die, but that’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
“The disease can’t kill me if I kill myself first”
40+ is where it gets really interesting, introducing the possibility of getting delirious with weirdly unsettling hallucinations.
Don’t fuel them by watching TV is all I’m gonna say.
It feels so weird to me that the small change in degrees might actually kill a virus. I mean, wouldn’t all viruses by now have become accustomed to “warmer climates”?
Or is it a cat / mouse game, our bodies being able to heat up more and them getting more fire resistant by the year. Was a fever less hot a couple of hundred years ago?
Heat resistance generally reduces a pathogens fitness at normal temps. The human body is also far more heat resistant than individual viruses thanks to being a big multi cellar organism with many expendable cells. A fever isn’t your only method of dealing with viruses either, you’re just stacking the deck against them do your immune system has a better time.
“I can’t survive above 38.0 C for very long as well.”
OP must be weak. I had a fever above 38.0 °C for over a week once. Finally went to the hospital and my fever was gone by the time I arrived. Our bodies do some weird sh*t sometimes.
so chemo is just fevers revenge
