luckily the flu has evaded me this year. A few colds have made my life unpleasant but no bugs that land me in bed. For me, I normally get something like the flu about once every 2 years.
Caress every ache... It stops the hurting...
Spent one in bed with the flu - had to dig in 1800 mg of painkillers just to get out of bed in the morning... Hope you get well soon!
Just got over a 14-day cold myself, thankfully no aches and pains like you had. Still sucks when your lungs are at 40% capacity and you're coughing up scary stuff.
