RDTrains Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 Yes. I got it. Started feeling bad 2 days ago, tried to make appt with family doc Friday but was too late. Walking into one of those local emergency clinics this AM and they confirmed what I suspected. The doctor said there really isn’t a cure we can just treat the symptoms. Oh and he says you’ll most likely have it for a week. There is a particularly virulent strain out there and current flu shot injections only cover about 30% of what is prevelant. Don’t remember last time I had the flu but it’s been at least 10 years. Fuk me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sol Aristatel Posted January 20, 2018 Report Share Posted January 20, 2018 It nailed me in late November. It's horrible this season. Only remember one other time in my life I was that sick. Hang in there pal. Rest and fluids. That's really the only thing you can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
