Pretty much sums up ANY flu or cold.

Just my opinion.

There is lots going around right now.

Yup, lots of fluids, but eating is hit or miss, I have had 4 pieces of toast today and that's it.

Can't drink alcohol as it increase my blood pressure compared to the normal person, and being sick makes it even worse. I would be in the hospital right now and I don't need that :nono:

My mom had H1N1 it last week but we haven't been in contact with her for two weeks. Also its at my kids school, and a friends wife who is a nurse says its early for the seasonal flu so most likely we have H1N1.

We are a healthy eating, living family so IMO we had a 1 up on it, so hopefully we get over it soon and it doesn't drag on like the normal flu. I hope it is the H1N1, then we are done with it.

According to the news this evening if you have or have had flu like symptoms it's likely H1N1. Guess that means my family made it through. Vaccine free I might add. We all had fever, aches, sinus and chest issues. We ate well through it (lots o garlic) slept well and the adults had a few hot rums to help. One less thing to worry about this winter.

I'm just getting over it right now. It took quite the round outa me. i had no muscle strength - soreness all over , bad cough, migraine ( i get them anyways ), chills/overheating, diahrea. passed out in the bathroom, ate it into the counter then slept on the floor for a while
i spent 2 days in bed and fought it off with neocitron, advil , benyln and some whisky.
i can understand how ppl die from it, its wicked bad.
