sendra45 Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Anybody else get this Flue/cold that struck us all down over Christmas? 'they' are saying that there is a lot of it around and I was just wondering how everybody else got on these last few weeks. The angels have the phonebox.

euchrid Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Nope, apart from a few seasonal sniffles, I managed to avoid any heavy cold/flu bugs this year (at least I have done so far). I wasn't so lucky last xmas & the one before that when I was totally bunged up - hard to enjoy a slap-up turkey dinner with no sense of taste or smell! The news today has been all about this Norovirus thing:- http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7169347.stm Sounds nasty! I could do without catching that.

johnieheel Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Got the runny nose thing before Christmas for a few days but just about everybody I know has caught something. Brother had it the first few days over Christmas when we went to Illinois to visit. Dang thing is every where. real men wear heels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Loveshiheels Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Got this cold on new years day and its making me feel tired all the time. Should really take time of work but then I would not get paid and its to early in the year to take as holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roniheels Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I had a bad cold on January 16th (two days before my birthday). High fever, head and chest congestion, and just feeling yuky. I was in bed two straight days. But after the fever broke, I felt 100% better, even though it didn't completely leave my system for about two weeks. I didn't take any antibiotics. Just over the counter relievers and chicken noodle soup and orange juice. Hopefully, my body will build up enough immunities on its own to fight off next year's virus.

I'm not sure if all these bugs come outta Asia or what, but each new season they seem to have a new & improved, ruggidized version. Just think, since our modern medicines can't seem to keep pace with 'em; in a couple of years we'll need atomic weapons to kill 'em off! Keep on stepping, Guy N.

It is very scary how much stronger these viruses get every year. When does it get to the point that we have nothing but our own immunities to fight them? Thanks for the reply and I hope your health is good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
