Hello everyone. I am happyi to be back after almost 2 days of braving the flu that get into me. Friday morning, I thought it was just allergic rhinitis, lunch came I declared it colds. In the afternoon, headaches came, body aches started. Friday night, fever sets in and chill too. Saturday, I had a roller coaster ride with sleeping. After I drank the medicine, I am a bit good, when it started to wear off, I started to drift off also. My while body wasand is still aching. Virus and bacterias nowadays are qyuite stronger than before too. Fast forward Monday early morning, I still feel a bit sore. Hope you are all doing great.

@Morleyhunt I am so glad you are feeling better. Having the flu is not picnic. I have chronic rhinitis and there is no cure for it. I am still not sure if I also have allergic rhinitis too. I have an air purifier that helps me sleep at night with out coughing and bronchitis. I one time did not get the flu shot and got the flu. Now, I make sure I get flu shots.

@rakski I would say I screwed up here. Sorry about that. I put the wrong name. I do that at times. Good idea to buy one. They do help. I have rhinitis all year round but in winter it is much harder to deal with. In the summer I do not suffer from it that much.

I agree. They are stronger, I even heard it from one of the Doctors who attended to me.

Yes, I agree. Like technologies developing, these viruses develop also into stronger one

@JustBhem I think it has something to do with the weather

@rakski I agree because even with those healthy immune systems they can acquire it. Is it because of the weather? Or what's wrong with the world now?

Good for you. I started having fever last Wednesday and until now I seem to have some slight fever inside. I guess this was aggravated by 12 hours and 40 minutes brown-out from NGCP yesterday and I still had to attend our coop's chapter assembly at the sports complex in the morning and join our parish outreach in the afternoon. It was really very hot in these two affairs. The total blackout was from 6AM to 6:40PM. NGCP was replacing cross arms and wooden poles in several towns and cities with the steel ones so they had to shut down power. They have been doing this gradually every now and then so as to replace all wooden poles with steel poles and I guess this would take several months or even a year or two.

I think it caught you when your immune system was down as well. I think you shold boost your immune system for now. Take Vit C a lot and water those can help you to recover from your sickness. I hope it does not get you for a week because Flu can sometimes stay that long. If you succumb long enough you will have to take time recovering from it.
