    Hey everyone,


    No, it's not a norovirus or anything. I have either a horrible cold or the flu. Whatever it is, I've had it 2 weeks and I feel sicker today than before. It should be gone by now! sniff...


    I've come on a bit and posted a bit, but mostly I'm too sick and exhausted. Sorry! If there's anything you want me to see or answer, pls. be sure to use my name in the topic or send me a pm.


    when I'm better I'll come on and engage more in the posting.


    Thanks!

    Sage,

    I can sympathize! I have been sick on and off with a crummy cough for about 6 weeks. Rest up and get well soon! We miss you!!!!!!

    Sage, hope you're feeling better. My husband keeps picking up colds at work. I use Zicam, and it always shortens the length of a cold. It sometimes seems to stop it the first day!

    aww get well soon! I use Zicam but it doesn't really seem to work for me. And i use it right at the first sign of a cold too... weird....


    I contracted some weird throat virus a couple weeks ago, and I still have the cough. But I doubt it'll go away anytime soon, the weathers been totally crappy lately, and I spent like 5 minutes outside today in the rain, w/ out my coat [img]smileys/smilies_06.gif[/img]*knocks wood*

    gahh this is why I hate all viruses. Like with colds, throat viruses, any respiratory virus... I dunno it just scares me, cuz w/ me they're either gone within a couple days or they linger for weeks, sometimes even MONTHS. It's horrible. I think one of the biggest reasons why I'm so paranoid is because I actually came down w/ pneumonia about 5 years ago

    Thanks guys - you're all so nice. The cold virus in my neighbourhood is indeed a bad one this year. Bah! Global warming, I say.


    I'm still run down by it, over 3 weeks now. But I'll try to check the board daily again now.
