Take a hot bath tonight (about 20 minutes) then go take your temperature ... I discovered this one time by accident, it actually raises your body temp markedly. Don't call Mom's attention to it if the temp is too high (wait a while until it gets to about 100.5).
It also helps if your eyes get glassy, but you need eye drops for that. No smiling.

I think a lot of people are misreading what is being asked ....
She has been told by the nurse at school to stay home
She believes that her mother will want to send her to school anyway
She is wondering what would make her mother allow her to stay at home AS requested by the nurse.
OK NOW BACK TO THE ANSWER...
what time of the morning does the school nurse arrive at your school ... IF she is there very early in the morning .. May I suggest that you call her and ask her to speak to your mother.
I don't think you are asking how to make yourself sicker .. but just for symptons that you can tell your mum , so she will allow you to stay at home as requested by the nurse.
The only other thing i can suggest is to go to school again .. and get the nurse to send you home.
HOPE YOU GET BETTER SOON.

First you should be ashamed. You never want to be "more sick". One day it is inevitable you will get really sick (we all do at one time or another) and believe me you will then be begging for someone to help you feel better. The deal is that you may feel really sick from a serious life threatening disease or it may be something that is temporary and will run its course and you will be fine. But who knows which it will be? Someday you will be an adult and as you mature in life you will find that in order to succeed and make your life worthwhile there will be many days that you will feel sick, achey, be in physical pain but you will have to get up and do whatever job you have to do that day regardless of how you may feel. If I stayed home everytime I felt ill or achy or my back hurt or I had a headache I would have never gotten anywhere in this life. I am 51 years old and one of the things I notice more and more in todays society is younger people seem to take off more often, run to their doctor for every little thing. I am a private duty nurse and have been on a job for about 3 months. I work 12 hour shifts from 7PM to 7AM. I am relieved by a nurse less than half my age and during this very short span of time he has gone to the doctor 2 or 3 times because he felt bad. He never gets to work by time to relieve me at 7PM and always gets to leave early when I relieve him at 6:30 PM because I always get to my job early regardless of how I feel. I have good days and bad days but I appreciate the good days so much more because of the bad days. Don't ever wish to be "more sick" because your wish may come true!!!!!

don't make yourself sicker just to stay home hon, if you really wanna stay home that bad then just pretend not to be able to get out of bed, cough all night or something. Don't take anything to make you sick though because it might cause greater health problems for you. Complain of a headache, body ache or anything and see if that works so long as you don't try to make yourself sicker physically.

Young lady,what is the matter with you?Judging by that question I take it that you are allergic to school. ,a sore throat is nothing to what you ll get if you do something stupid,and I will not tell you what that is,so unless you have a raging fever,you should get yourself a decent education and stop thinking how to get sick just to stay home.

sweetie nothing is worth making yourself more sick.
if you want to fake it, hold a hot water bottle to your head before she takes your temperature, a fever proves your sick, if its a mouth thermometer make sure to drink something hot before you put it in your mouth.
