One question... why is it no one ever visits the English forum?
Thanks for the translation of [Pfeiffer] by the way... My English teacher was impressed when I used "Glandular Fever" in my last writing assignment.
I think because it's a dutch site :shock: :idea:
Probably...
I have an English page about Glandular Fever (http://ziektevanpfeiffer.nl/pfeiffer_engels.html) and there are some visitors on that page. But I think they are not interested in a forum.
maybe because there aren't much people that post here????
Let's make the diffrence!
fine with me..
Don't you think Maaike will be mad with us when we overflow the English forum with our spam as well?
hmmm.... is she mad at us????

You can spam a little here ;). There's no English person who posts here, so "go your gang" ;).
what does a 'sticky' mean?
die blijft altijd boven aan staan...
Citaat van: "marieke"die blijft altijd boven aan staan...
hey, it's an english forum, please talk english so we can all understand you! :cry:
It'll always stand on top...
ah, now I understand! thank you! :mrgreen:
There used to be a Sticky on the Dutch forum, what happened to it?
It wasn't my fault! I never spammed anything on that topic... did I?
Did you know that in The Netherlands the disease was called "Klierkoorts" at first? That's a literal translation of "Glandular Fever." And it's a much better description of the disease than "Pfeiffer" is!
Which reminds me... I think I know why not many oversea visitors ever visit this forum. Have you seen the url? It says
Citaat van: "url"http://www.ziektevanpfeiffer.nl/forum/posting.php?mode=reply&t=155
Why would someone in the UK or the USA or whatever country where people tend to speak English search for Glandular Fever on a site called
www.ziektevanpfeiffer.nl???
my english is not very well then i visit only the dutch website's, whiej :P
Ok, i can read english but i dont get it hmm.. niet echt logisch mijn engels :S
It doesn't really matter, Leoni. There'll be no one here who actually can't understand your Dutch. :P
Hi all i want to know if you can get glandular fever twice. i went to the hospital the other day and the doctor said i have it again. Then i went to my doctor he said i cann't get again buy the funny thing is i have all the symtoms and i feel the same as i did when i first had it . Confused
You can "get it" twice. The virus stays in your body (passively) and can be reactivated when your resistence is affected. (So, actually, you don't really get it twice, you only suffer from it twice)
i feel like everyboby doesn't beleive me. But i am getting a blood test next week to see what is going on. It sux beening sick again and feeling really tired. But hey i will see what happens :). Have u been sick with glandular fever ???
most of the people here have.
I wouldn't be around here if I hadn't been....

That's quite opposite to what you said before. Hypocritic arse. It seems that I'm the only one around here who has an international subscript.

btw, why is all the text you see when writing a reply in dutch? like 'Onderwerp' and 'Tip: BBcode kan je toepassen op geselecteerde tekst'. now that is what I call Hypocritism!

Then everything is in English.
And now back ontopic!
Hi
Found out I might have this nasty sound Glandular Fever, so was looking around to see what it was.
What does
BRUIF to the world!
Mean?
Cheers
AC from England!
Well... Olav, you have to explain ;). Because I don't know (still).
And Geb? -> I hope you will feel better soon.

BRUIF doesn't mean anything, and therefor it means everything. It's just what you make of it. (I once wrote a song 'bout that) Normally it is used as kind of greeting thingy. Sometimes it is used as form of respect. Or as some kind of, you know, word you tend to say too much. It is at all times positive, so when I say "BRUIF to the world!" it means that I wish the world a lot of BRUIF. Or something.
But this hasn't much to do with GF. When did you get it? What are your symptoms?
Hi
The I had a blood test Tue, was meant to get the result Wed, but the Doctor was not there to read it. So I was not allowed to hear the results. Rang today when they said and she still had not read them, they will call me when she has. As its 5pm I wonder if/when I will get a call!
Symptons:
At the beginning- Stiff neck. Bunged up nose. Slightly sore throat. Tiredness.
After 2 days- Really bad headache. Slept from 3pm (I nearly never sleep during the day). Head felt extremely hot. Nettle rash (also known as hives or urticaria) over my body where it got hot. This would go away if I could cool my body down enough. Dizzy. Lack of energy. Smaller appetite than normal.
After 6 days- Headaches and hot head continue but not as bad. Still feeling tired quickly if I do anything. On days I do nothing but sit or lay in bed I feel fine. If I do anything for too long all my energy drains away.
Once I read this site and others I felt under my ribs on both sides. The left side (side Spleen is on) was alot warmer! Not sure if it would be whilst my body is fighting any infection or if its especially this one?
Wish the Dr would ring and tell me for sure!
Just staying cool today has been hard work!
Hope everyone else is well.

Hey AC,
I've never so far heard of temperature diffrences of the spleen and liver side. Maaike? Do you know anything about that?
About the tiredness and sleepiness... be glad you're able to sleep anyway. A lot of people I've spoken here, including myself, are or have been tired as hell, while they're unable to sleep.
And I know it doesn't make you feel any better, but you sure gotta keep looking on the bright side of everything, or else you will really turn sick. GF is as good as a mental disease as a physical one.
Oh, en Maaike, wat betekent hives? Is dat niet zoiets als uitslag?

No, sounds strange to me.

I agree with that.
Hives is op interglot letterlijk vertaald als netelroos.
And what the *** is 'netelroos'???
I failed to look at how old this post was...eh...anyway...
Hives is like, skinrash...nasty. It's what you get if your doctor gives you antibiotics while you have pfeiffer when they're not supposed to.
Oh, and mostly in english pfeiffer is referred to as 'mono'. Just a short version of monoleclar whatever that long name is I don't want to remember :P
Glandular fever...it sounds so freaky :cry:
I encountered various websites who referred to Glandular Fever as "Epstein-Barr". And actually, I never encountered the phrase 'kissing disease' except in places like this, and wikipedia, and other encyclo-thingy-stuff-however you write that in English.
Hmm everywhere I surfed was mono this mono that...if my parents start asking me who I made out with, I'm going to kick someone. Like, them.
Why would they ask?
Because that's what parents are for...according to them, I've never kissed a boy in my entire life. I think they deny the existence of 'opposite sex' when it comes to me... :?
Bizarre.
Perhaps we should promote our english part of the site a little...
Nothing to be seen here... actually.
Well, no-one been around for a long time I notice!
So I thought I would break the silence so to speak,and hopefully maybe there are more who wish to
communicate in English (my mother-language, so nice for me sometimes ! )
see ya around !
I'll be able to reply in English, if you wish. But this isn't exactly the most popular part of the forum.

I have to say, I have noticed your English is very good Olav !
Oh well indeed, maybe not much point in communicating here but nice to have the opportunity to do so
now and then or whatever..
Thank you! You should hear me pronounce it... (you really shouldn't).
If the top level domain name wasn't .nl we'd have much more international visitors, I guess. Nevertheless, if you have any questions in English, or difficulties in Dutch, I'll try to answer to them, of course.

Hi, Maaike mijn dochter van 17 heeft last van trillingen,
dat komt plotseling en dan trilt ze over haar hele lichaam, ze heeft dan ook last
met ademhalen. Wij wonen in spanje en je kunt hier maar heel weinig informatie krijgen, weet jij hier iets van?
Tip: In sommige engelstalige landen staat Pfeiffer bekend als Glandulat Fever, maar in andere kennen ze het weer als Mono.
Is this alive or dead-the forum I mean? It seems very dead...
Indeed. Maybe 'throw it away'?
No don't throw it away,it can be useful.
I have just been diagnosed with Chronic Pfeiffer (second time for me in about 4 years) so keep this please.
Hmm, ok...
I mean throw away the English part. The other part is active.
