Still sick. Pain in the chest/ stomach, and still spitting up blood. I'm guessing this is a little more serious than a 24 hr bug. I'm just not going to go to a Dr. out here in Florida so as long as I can handle it I'll just wait until we get home. But I'm going crazy.... Here is a look into my OCD life. Right now at my fingure tips I have: Free- Room Service, Movies, Disney Park passes, Swimming Pools, Sun, Boat rides, Food (surf and turf to fruit loops), Shopping, and time to do any or all of it. But the only thing I want to do is put my running shoes on and go feel the burn of a good 12 mile run- and right now I just can't and it SUCKS. I've never had something serious enough that it may take me out totally. Right now the grim reality is that my beloved summer to train my brains out may just not happen.

7.2 mile run in a rain storm. I couldn't stand it and just decided to go out regardless of what happened. It hurt but not much more than it does sitting around.

One step at a time Clyde. First go see a doctor don't wait. You don't want things to get worst. Give this to the Lord and have Faith and he will take care of you.

Just be patience and don't panic. You really need to go to the doctor, because it maybe something simple that they can take care of and you can enjoy the rest of your vacation. You got to be will to make the first move and help yourself, got to a doctor now. Your to get of a runner to be put on a self for a while if you don't get this checked out. You really do want it to get worse.

Clyde, Welcome to Florida. We are 50 min. west in Satellite Beach. Hopefully the humidity will clear out your chest...sorry to hear that. Have fun.

Go see a doctor right away, that sounds like something you don't want to mess around with.

You know I have no experience to back this up, but if you are going to fly home, I would go to a doctor before stepping on a plane. Spitting blood and the altitude on a plane do not seem like a safe mix.

Clyde, Get your A$#@^#$^ to the Doctor ASAP!!!!!! Don't mess around with this!!!

Omigosh! Clyde that sounds serious! I'm so sorry you're so sick. Hope you heal quickly. You are scaring the blog, Clyde. Be a good example--get this taken care of pronto!

Thanks to you all for the support. I feel like things are fairly stabble. If I felt like it was life or death I'd be in the ER. As for now I'll plan on getting in as soon as we get home and I can see someone I trust.

Again I really thank you all for the support.
