Darn Flu

Here I have the weekdays week off this week and it is in the 70s (I was suppose to work nights the next 2 weeks). Yesterday I had a root canal and today I come with the flu.

Just wanted some pity.
 
I suppose you didn't get your flu shot!!
Hope it's easy on you.
My daughter visited last weekend and asked her if she got her shot of course she didn't. Guess what, two days later she text me saying she should have gotten her flu shot. She's sick.
 
It's been so long since I've had the flue, I've forgotten how to spell it. I wouldn't mind a mild bout, so I could take time off from work and use some of my 2000+ hours of sick leave.
 
I hear ya buddy.
I've had it since My birthday the 12th, we went 2 hours away to the casino, On the way home i had to stop 4 times to poop on the road, it was like -8 outside.

I have lost (no lie) 25 lbs. This is THE worst flu/sickness i have ever had., Puking/pooping/fever/chills/sore body and bones/fatigue.

Get a tamiflu shot. wish i would have.
 
Got a good cold a couple of weeks ago, and took a sick day at work. Got my flu shot in October. I will be glad when this flu thing is over. I am getting tired of listening to the SWMBO yell at the TV when the news reports on the flu. She works for the county at disaster preparedness now, but was at disease control before that position. So she knows how serious the flu is, how many have died and all that stuff. So when the news reports inaccurate information (according to her) she lets the TV know about it. :hs

Get well soon! Drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest.

Thanks for the pity guys, I know I can count on you. I feeling a little better but just sleeping allot.


I did not get a flu shot. This is the first time in 10 years I have had the flu.

Well, time for a nap...
 
Well all I can say is "thank you" to my wife for nagging me a few months ago to get a flu shot.
 
Hope you get to feeling better.

I had the swine flu a couple years ago and it sucked. Turned into pneumonia which sucked worse and I ended up being home from work for two weeks.

Never get the shot myself (because it usually doesn't work and the shot is full of all kinds of nasty stuff) but outside of the swine flu I haven't had the flu since 8th grade.

One of my boys was sick with some kind of nasty cold last week. He's better and the wife has it now. I've had a light touch of it the last few days but managed to run on the treadmill last night so think I'll be ok. Think the other boy may be coming down with it but he usually fights things off better than his brother....we'll see.
 
Just got up from another nap. Seems for every hour I am up I take a 20 min nap (could be the drugs). Now my throat feels sand paper. Need to take a flash light and check it out.

Sure love my wife at times like this. I am not a good patient. She say I owe her allot right now.
 
Finally after 5 days of the flu, I am feeling better. Hope to start trouble shooting some electrical issues this morning.
 
Doctor advised against it this year. Getting the flu and the shot. Said the shot wouldn't mix well with the new thyroid med and blood thinner I'm on. Been trying to shake this cold since Christmas.

Been a nasty cold bug going around this area.

Week before last one boy had it, his brother had it last week and wife had it somewhere in between.

So far so good for me.

When I feel crap like that coming on, I load up on vitamins, drink lots of water and get in a hard workout to sweat it out.
