Oh well, I am not really sure. I got the symptoms though. I haven't seen the doctor yet and I hope it is not flu. I hope that it is just the common cold. I think it is the weather. It has been rather cold for the past few days and many of my students got colds. In fact, a co-worker got the flu a couple of days back.

Take care of yourself. I'm bracing for the flu seasons here too. It's been in the news that we might also get the flu epidemic that is spreading in the States.

I hope you've got the shots to protect you from the flu outbreak there.

Its cold here too dear dolce_vita and I am battling the beginning of a cold myself..... I feel too responsible for work to go to the doctor and get sick leave. I work at the office with 4 others in a group and rarely have my clients visit me at work so I dont really need sick leave when it has hit me. You are a teacher so I guess you really need the sick leave as you give lectures to so many students and have to talk all workday long.

The weather can really cause a lot of people to get sick. Just take enough fluids to make you feel better.

Oh, that's such a shame. Having the flu really sucks. I am fortunate in that I have not had the flu in about 10 years. However, I did have several colds this winter, and they really knocked me for a loop. LOL Get well soon!!!

Oh yuck, it is the season, and the bugs are flying around. If you didn't get a flu shot I don't like your chances...

Sorry I am late. I think you are OKay now. No choice I need to follow my old notification to find discussions from my friends. Anyway, if I felt different and thinking that I have a flu, I will always ask my younger brother or sometimes my wife to buy 3 tablets of Flanax 550mg and Tuseran capsule. Flue will gone

I hope it's not the flu either, but if you've been around someone who has had it and are having symptoms, it very well could be. The flu has been going on pretty bad here in the US this season even. My sister thought she had it recently but apparently it wasn't the flu.
