I figured that I could be upright long enough to tell those of you waiting for stuff or confirmations...I am down for the count with this crappy viral thing. I have not been sick for YEARS but since I got the flu shot to "protect Mom" I have been fighting three different bugs over the last couple of months. Maybe it is just coincidence but maybe not. YUCK. Thank you for your patience.

This year they guess wrong on what type of flu would be going around so the flu shot wasn't much protection. Feel better soon!

I got the flu shot, and I caught the flu last month, along with everybody I know. There's not only a bad bug going around, but since the shot only partly covers it, it means there are more germs in the general population to spread around; it seems several people in my knitting group came home with it from Stitches. Sorry you caught it!

Poor baby!
As the other comments mention, the flu virus selection gamble was wrong this year. It also seems like an exceptionally *bad* year for lingering viruses (virii?). So many people at work have been or are currently really sick. Even the ones who usually don't get anything. My general cubicle area sounds like a TB ward right now.
Usually I get sick every year no matter what, but oddly resistant this year. So far anyway. Knock on wood.
Get better quick!

Funny - I got a flu shot this year and I got the flu, too. I am still coughing the wheezy cough 3 weeks later. It's hard on a singer to cough that long! I found a herbal tincture called Bronchi Blend that seemed to help me through the worst of it.
Tea, tea and more tea. Gypsy Cold Care is pretty good, too!

You're not the only one who got the flu. Hubby was nice enough to bring it home from work. When he popped 102 degree fever I called the doctor for Tamiflu. I hate to think how sick I would have been without the medicine. It was a rough go anyway. This is the worst flu bug we've had since 1996. My voice is finally coming back and I'm not hacking so much. Hope you're feeling better soon.
