I think I have a really bad case of the flu or something worse, i've had a headache for the past 5 days, aches all over, caugh, sore throat, and tired....Have an appt. at Urgent Care at 11 so we'll see.

Anyone else not get a flu shot and really sick?


Oh and sorry if that made absolutely no sense, i'm on so many meds my head is spinning.

 

yeah, ive been sick on and off now for 2 weeks. I think there is something going around.

 

I had my flu shot earlier this year and am still fine. *knock on wood*

Hope you get better soon.

One thing to keep in mind is to not touch your mouth or face. Hands are notoriously dirty.

 

I have not gotten a flu shot, and I have not been sick in a while. I don't usually get sick though, maybe once or twice a year, but when I get sick I'll be in bed for a week. I guess it hits me pretty hard.

 

expletive flu shots. I havent been to the Dr in 2+ years except for the physical I had to get for my road racing license.

 

I have a slight sore throat. Flu shots have seemed to work considering I haven't been sick in a while.

Cant go to trackdays since I have a torn PCL and meniscus in my left knee and dont want to risk blowing it out completely if I crash

 

I've always been a firm believer of letting your body do its own thing.

I get sick maybe once or twice a year, and its never anything to keep me in bed.

I NEVER go to the doctor, never get flu shots, only take medicine to help me sleep at night when I have a bad cold, or supress my snotty nose while I'm at work.

I like to think that letting your body fight off whatever it is on its own helps your immune system to grow stronger. Urban legend? Maybe, but its worked for me.

Half a bottle of NyQuil a night does my body good

So don't crash

 

I am in my last day of my cold. I just bombard myself with meds until it is gone. I take airborne, zicam, and Tylenol cold. I got over it in like 4 days. Everyone else that had it was sick for about 2 weeks.

The was/is a real bad virus going around my area right now as well. It makes you puke and **** uncontrollably for a week. there is no cure for it at all. You just got to let it run is course. the sectioned off the wing of the hospital to keep people.

 

That Zicam stuff works pretty good

It does not taste very good though

for allergies though.

 

I go skimming in 70 degree weather with 50 degree water, eat double cheeseburgers everyday, and I haven't gotten sick in so long its not funny....


*cough*....crap...

 

I had this around 3 weeks ago. I stayed in bed for about 48 hours straight, was pretty doped up and was fine by the 3 or 4th day. Just sleep a lot; I think I was drinking well over a gallon a day too which helped.
