I'm not even afraid of your old lady germs. Harhar

Seriously though hope you feel better. If you thought some super-spicy (Thai hot!) pad thai would help I'd be glad to share some. Eat
Yeah I need to make another batch of my jalapeno/vegetable/barley soup. laugh out loud
Thanks hug

Quote from Peachyum :
Aww, I was hoping to see you feel better today, Jane. Comfort

Maybe something spicy would help clear up your sinuses for a few minutes. Are there any ghost chilis around you could nibble on... ? Tomato Snap a photo. Let's see what'cha look like at your worst. Blow it up and hang it in the office so the next time you're starting to come down with something, the guys can forewarn you to get to the doctor before it gets to this point. You probably started looking sick about three days before you actually felt it. (As a mom, I know that I could tell when one of the kids was fixing to have an asthma attack because he'd develop dark circles under his eyes and become sleepy through the day.) Drink lots of hot tea. Drop honey into your mouth and let it hit the back of your throat before swallowing. It'll help coat it. Feel better, chicka!
hug Thanks...the worst part right now is that it's moving to my lungs and they hurt...stupid colds. Ranting Tea sounds really good though...must go make a cup.

Annoyed

I went to get my pad Thai & the place is closed. I guess the phone number being out of service should've been a clue... I assumed they'd just made a mistake or the # had changed. Nope. It's closed on a Saturday night... doesn't bode well for the restaurant.

It was my favorite too. Sadwalk Now I'll have to make do with pizza tonight. Mad
Comfort Yeah that's probably not a good sign.

I hate working night shift for the time change. Instead of getting an extra hour of sleep I have to work an extra hour Ranting
hehehe I love having the extra hour of sleep...when I drove the school bus I lived for this day laugh out loud I liked it being lighter out earlier...but now that I don't have to wake up that early I am going to dislike losing the hour of daylight in the evening. crapsicles.

I've felt awful all day from this cold. Very bad sore throat. Apparently Halls breezers are NOT gluten free like they say because now I'm really sick. Mad

Not a chance. I know people in Denver, NC, Detroit, Maryland; basically all over the country who all have this crud. Sadly it takes about 3 weeks to leave I'm hearing.

Add DC to that list - not me but just about everybody else I know went down with that crap & stayed down for a long time. Most of them were out of work at least 2-3 days (in one case a week) and it took on average 16-18 days for them to shake it completely.

Not sure wtf it is (since the docs were saying this year's flu vaccine had the same "signatures" as last year) but it's nasty.

Here's hoping my over-the-top regimen of supplements keeps it at bay until I've been at my new job at least a month or so! laugh out loud

It doesn't really seem like the flu to me. I only had a fever for about 24 hrs, only a few days with the chills and no days with the usual flu body aches. Much more concentrated in the head/sinuses/lungs for me. Like bronchitis and almost a sinus infection as a double whammy.

Yep, that's the stuff, congestion like crazy & not even any green or yellow discharge really as far as I've heard (only reason I know this is that I must've suggested going to a doctor over 9000 times to my friends who caught this crud & they all said "well nothing green is coming out so what's a doctor gonna give me?").

Maybe it's the precursor to the zombie plague... Bigeye

Wave I am still sick with this crud. If it's like I used to get every year back in MI it will take a while to get rid of...being asthmatic does not help.
If I am not a lot better by tomorrow I will have to use the chest x-ray script the doc gave me..and go back for a Z-Pak (or whatever that steroid pack is called...reducing the number of pills each day...anywho). Heck the side effects of that is enough to make me feel crappy. ugh.

Yep. Although it did have yellow discharge for about 2 days. But it was over the weekend and cleared by Monday so no Dr. Hide
