The devil has found me
The flu that is. For the first time in my life I have the flu. My fever finally broke just a couple hours ago so I hope I'm on the climb back up. I feel 10x better since it broke. I'm pretty sure I kinda lucked out as I was already on antibiotics for a different infection. My fever only lasted about 36 hours. I contracted this crap from my brother and he had a fever for 3 days! I wouldn't wish this crap on my worse enemy.

FWIW antibiotics have no effect on a virus. This year's flu vaccine is only 10% effective so it could be a bad year.....Sounds like you are on the back side of it now. I understand your pain, I had it 2 years ago and it sucks.

Well, knock on wood, I'm 70 and have never had a flu shot and never had the flu.
Don't ever plan to get a flu shot either. |

I refused this years shot for that reason |
Flu!!!
I have been lucky enough to avoid it the last couple years but had it about 4 years ago and it is definately a Devils Curse to get it.
I do hope everyone that has it recovers soon and are able to avoid catching it again. They say it has a way of making you think your over it and it comes back with a vengence a week or two later. |

Well I have not had a fever now since yesterday morning and I feel so much better. I actually feel good enough that I went out to lunch today. That's the first time I've been out of my house since last week. I had reservations about leaving the house and infecting someone else with this crap but from everything I read I shouldn't be contagious if I've been without a fever for 24 hours and I have surpassed that timeframe. Knock on wood, I think I'm almost over this mess. Now if I can just get my strength back I should be back on the water in a day or 2.
