I'm really worried because my roommate just caught chicken pox while riding the metro, and I'm trying everything to not catch it too. I'm staying away from him and keeping his things separate. But since we're sharing the same room, is there still a chance I could end up getting infected?

Feeling and seeing your pulse in your stomach can be unsettling. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Normal variation_: As you mentioned, it's normal to feel a slight pulse in the abdominal area. 2. _Increased abdominal muscle tone_: If you've recently started exercising or have increased your physical activity, your abdominal muscles may be more prominent, making the pulse more visible. 3. _Thin body fat percentage_: If you have a low body fat percentage, your abdominal organs, including the aorta, may be more visible. 4. _Aortic pulse_: The aorta, the main artery that carries blood from the heart, runs through the abdominal cavity. A strong aortic pulse can be visible in some individuals. _No Need for Concern_ Unless you're experiencing other symptoms like: - Abdominal pain or tenderness - Shortness of breath - Dizziness or lightheadedness - Rapid or irregular heartbeat

I can't really feel any warmth when I touch my body, but two different thermometers are showing that I have a fever of 101F. Should I be worried about this?
Its possible to have a fever without feeling hot, especially if your body is adjusting to the elevated temperature. However, a fever of 101F suggests your body is fighting an infection. If you experience other concerning symptoms like chills, fatigue, or discomfort, it's best to consult a doctor for further evaluation.
