Subject: I had the flu or some kind of bug this winter...
Written By: KKay on 02/28/08 at 2:23 pm
it's the stuff of Stephen King novels. I have had "Captain Trips" (see The Stand) for four weeks now.
Anyone else?

Eugh! Like the ectoplasm in Ghostbusters 2? ;D I hope you've finally kicked it to the kerb.
I put other. I haven't had full blown flu but I get the odd 24 hour thing occassionally. It's understandable where I work.

Sorry to hear you are still sneezing and coughing, I didn't know.
Yeah, you've got to keep your Vitamin C intake high when you are working around kids.

I'm slowly recovering from the cold from hades. There were 2 days when I'm sure my head couldn't have weighed less than 437 lbs. I was taking all that over-the-counter-coma stuff and it was barely taking the edge off. I still have the lingering effects of a sore throat - the thing will not leave!

The only thing I've had this year was an intestinal virus, same symptoms as food poisoning.
I don't get the flu but I can give it to others. If I get a sniffle my wife will avoid me because she knows
the flu for her is sure to follow.

Get well soon.
If you recall, it took me a long time to shake my flu off last month, and each year it is getting worse.

I haven't gotten it, but I've had something for the past month that has just been irritating me. It's like my body WANTS to get sick (aches, pains, a bit of a sore throat), but it won't commit to the full on cold/flu/whatever. I wish to hell it would though so I wouldn't feel like this. :P
Rice stayed home sick today (Professor got the bug from his kids and I guess passed it around the lab), so there is hope I might get it soon. :D

IMO it is no good having the anit-flu jab for the vaccine is made from the previous years' strain and will be useless on the current strain.

I was fighting it off for a while, until the white flag went up. I get something like this every year. :P

I'm sorry you've been sick for so long Karen and as for me, all I got was a 4 day cold, not too bad and I did nothing but sleep, eat soup and drink hot tea. I've enjoyed a lengthy stint of good health the last couple years.

I have discovered that drinking milk, even in tea, aggravates the infection.

That is one reason why I drink my tea black, I have done it now for two years. For the body needs for what milk can give you, I have some ice cream or yoghurt (not too much)
