Bobinogs?
Anyway, once you have kids (and especially if they go to kindergarten/daycare) then you're bound to get sick about every other day.

Oh look - I'd forgotten I was ill 23-24/10 as well. Had a further four days off with nasty throat infection at the beginning of Nov and stupidly didn't finish course of antibiotics (cos I was well again and back at work). Now the infection is back and I've finished off the Penicillin...

What's dumb is that for the first time in a long while, I have health care. But at the end of every week, I'm always convinced that it couldn't possibly go on another week, and that going to the doctor would be a waste of time.

My boss effectively dodged this same cold/flu by "sitting in a steam room for an hour, and then drinking Scotch to ridiculous excess."
I may try that this evening, but with bourbon.

I've been battling a cold THRICE for the past two months. On top of that my mum has/had pneumonia, my husband and oldest daughter also had colds and/or a virus. My dad also had a cold but only for a day or so.

after watching some nasty bug (a form of flu? who knows) knock out my wife and both kids over the last 3 weeks, it's finally my turn. at least it's gone sequentially so we've all been able to take care of each other. still. ugh. my first fever in at least a few years. judging from its observed course so far, i probably have two more lousy days ahead.
surely i amn't the only one ailing in the 2nd week of december. where my co-sufferers at?

Don't have a fever, but I've had the sniffles for over a week now. Gone through several boxes of kleenex already
― Elvis Telecom, Saturday, 12 December 2009 06:13 (3 years ago) Permalink
isn't it funny how that works? xp I always assume it's cause the virus keeps on mutating until it finds a suitable version to slip past your immune system.

i was really sick thanksgiving week, felt better for a week, and now i feel as though i've developed some kind of winter allergies. been sneezing and blowing my nose all week, with itchy sore throat. i just want it all to go away. my nose is raw now from all the tissues :(

Just went through a nasty bit of free-floating paranoia. Thought it was going to develop into a bout of hypomania, but nothing happened, thankfully. Slept for 14 hours and now it's going away.

jesus...had a cold for last two weeks or so but it was just a bit of congestion etc, nothing major. then yday evening i just get this onset of shivers where i can't even move in bed without shivering, had to put on loads of clothes. sinuses ache, mouth is a bit swollen, and chest is a little sore which makes me worry about having pneumonia. didn't sleep properly at all, mind was just racing with sweaty delirious dreams.
hoping this goes away quickly as i have a job interview on friday and an audition for a play tomorrow.
― I see what this is (Local Garda), Sunday, 31 October 2010 12:45 (2 years ago) Permalink
if you had pneumonia, i think you'd know, you wouldn't be able to move.
i've had a cold for about 6 days now, aching head and hot and cold flushes, only thing to do is plenty of fluids and keep warm.
having a hot bath and getting into bed with many layers on to sweat it out always seems to work.
wish i still had a bath :(
― not_goodwin, Sunday, 31 October 2010 12:50 (2 years ago) Permalink
yeah i'm just being paranoid on the pneumonia issue i'm sure. hot bath sounds great apart from the effort required to get out of bad and get into one. might try eating something soon. ugh...
― I see what this is (Local Garda), Sunday, 31 October 2010 12:54 (2 years ago) Permalink
you have an audition for a play! that's pretty cool. hope it is for a character who has the ague...
went home for the weekend to go to a conference and thence dancing but haven't been able to do more than lie in bed huffing decongestant and whining about how everything hurts. :(

― I see what this is (Local Garda), Sunday, 31 October 2010 17:49 (2 years ago) Permalink
you definitely should go even if still sick! you might end up being better than you expect. I had a friend who would with absolute regularity get minor illnesses or injure herself before performances (she was in ~musical theatre~), after a while I started to suspect it was her way of not giving herself a chance to be nervous.

This sounds like what my whole family has had for the past two weeks. The doctor diagnosed it as viral meningitis (not the same as spinal meningitis, thank god). My experience with it was pretty brutal though. I really couldn't function at all. It would take me minutes on end to climb out of bed. My poor daughter had it too and had to be hospitalized for a few days. She's recovered now though.

in an absolute state today, got in from class last night and got this rush of the shivers where i couldn't stop shaking. upset stomach and demented dreams all night and all day today. you know when you don't even know if you're asleep or awake, such is the madness of the fever dreams.
on the plus side there's always the chance i recover in time for the weekend.
