    Dumb while sick
    Why do we feel dumber when we're sick? Maybe it's just me.

    Because your brain does not function properly when you are sick. All of your electrolytes etc go to help cure the body parts that are sick.

    Hey, you are welcome ;). You seem to have a very inquisitive mind :D, anything I can do to help expand it just let me know. I have got to get on to bed now, had a very stressful day (a big exam), but please do not hesitate to continue to ask your questions. You may have a very bright future in the medical field ;).
