Who Else Is Sick?

Jakey · 12-10-2003

I was just curious who else is sick around here. I see that Matt D. posted up that he has the flu. I'm personally going on 2 weeks of feeling like shit and I think tomorrow morning I am finally going to go see the doctor if I'm still not feeling well. Down here at ISU, I think about every 3rd or 4th person is not feeling 100%. All I've got to say is that if you haven't come down with a cold or illness yet, you are damn lucky :fworld:

I am sick of rain. Man I wish it would snow! But we only get 3-4 inches if we are luckey down here all year.

ok back on topic. I am not sick right now but about 2 weeks ago I was feeling like shit too. I heard on the news that this year the flu is really bad.

I've been fighting a cold for about 3 weeks now. This week I feel good, last week was up and down.

I keep popping my Flinestones and it seems to help. That and keeping up on my sleep.

wash your hands all the time and never, ever touch your face.

havent been sick yet this year.

Damn balla...touching my face is like my favorite pastime!

I got sick from a guy I worked with on Sunday. He said he got a flu shot a day or two earlier then got sick. I had crap in my chest on Monday, coughing here and there and later in the day at work I started aching. Tuesday wasn't so bad, popped Tylenol Cold and it helped keep the aches away, work wasn't too bad except got physically tired as the night went on. Today (have Wed and Thurs off work) I wake up and fee like utter shit... Back to the Tylenol Cold and a nice nap this afternoon... Gonna pop a night time formula here soon.

A LOT of people getting flu shots are getting sick this year, thats another thing im going to avoid.

AJ · 12-11-2003

I dont do flu shots. I don't get sick very often, but this year has been a bit rough.

**Kracka** · 12-11-2003

I think they made the flu shot too strong this year, thats why people are getting sick from it.

john · 12-11-2003

I am not sick and wont be getting the shot. I haven't gotten one in years. Haven't visited the doctor for anything other than stiches in the last few years. I think of flu shots this way, the more people that get the shot, the less likely I am of getting it

. This also costs me nothing.

Jakey · 12-11-2003

I should mention that I also did get the flu shot back towards the beginning of November :blink:

ABV · 12-11-2003

I didn't get a shot this year. I was sick for a little while a month or two ago. I was kind of sick right after thanksgiving too. I thought I was getting the flu again, but I think it was some bed turkey or something.

Jakey · 12-11-2003

Well I went to the doctor today and after having a strep test come back negative, he said that I probably have a really bad cold. If I don't feel better by Monday I have to go back and get a mono test :angry:

They should have at least given you the Zpack. That helps out alot! Maybe ask for it.

What's the ZPack? I've never heard of it....

Jana · 12-11-2003

I don't know the real name (maybe Chris can help me out with that), but it's 5 pills you take. 2 the first day, then one a day for the next 3 days and it clears your cold right up. I got it last year and was amazed at how fast it works. It's in a green "pack". Not a bottle.

BuildADSM · 12-11-2003

yeah the stuff works great! It is an actually pack that you take like jana said. Is great cause you only haft to take it 1 time a day for like 5 days or something... If ask about a z pack they will knwo what it is called for short of the real name.

A//// Guy · 12-11-2003

Zithromyacin is what its called... ussually only for virus's.

Im already immune to it.
