Is anyone else sick?

[megan4777]

I have this horrid rough voice....
I have a very small cough and there's not much to it (yet)
Anyone else have this?


If not, I should set up a 900#....trust me, I sound sexy..

Oh Megan! Sick and you can't sleep either! Bummer!

I'm not sick but almost everyone on the MadHatters board is! And lots of other DIDers... bad year for colds & flu already.

Take care of yourself... drink lots... and do try to sleep if you can.

2 weeks ago i was exhausted after work so i decided to take a small nap.

i woke up with the WORST sore throat i've had in years. and i knew i was going to get sick. that's the first sign for me.

i ended up being sick for over a week. my doctor claimed it was a sinus infection, but this was NOTHING like the sinus infections i had before(i was diagnosed with chronic sinusitus as a child and was sick a lot, so i know the difference). i was congested, i had horrible headaches from the pressure, i ended up getting an ear infection because my ears were plugged so bad, i had a temperature, i could barely get out of bed, and i had a horrible cough.

the doctor gave me some meds. i stayed on them for a few days, but started having some really nasty side effects so i stopped taking them and i'm still a tad bit congested but it's almost gone.

hang in there! everyone's getting it!

Yes.

I've had it for a week and half. Started as sinus, then stomach, then sore throat and now cough.

Ick.

Yes, yes, yes, and I'm madder than you know what. I'm leaving for Disney tomorrow and I have the worst cough and sore throat. This is the second time I've had this in 3 weeks. It got better, now it's back. The worst part is that I started a new exercise program a few days ago and went overboard on it. The muscles over my ribcage are killing me and every time I cough, I want to die. I need a major nap and an attitude adjustment big time. Everyone better stay out of my way today.

I had it too...finally got my voice back this week....had lost my voice for at least 3 days (I'm sure DH was happy. hahaha) and had a horrible cold along with it. Overall at least 10 days total. Hope you feel better! One thing that really helped me was some Mucinex D. I had some leftover from the spring and I never had taken it. That really helped.

I think so, but not with a cold. My stomach was kind of upset last night and really not happy this morning. I went to class but ended up leaving before class even started because I thought I was going to throw up. I still haven't, but am really nausious and going between hot and cold. Not good

My DD had it for 4 weeks. Started as a sinus infection, then they claimed she got a virus also, which gave her a terrible cough, fever, no appetite. A week ago, I caught it. Sat/Sunday were fever, and awful coughing & headache, and couldn't eat anything.

I started with Mucinex during the day, and Nyquil at night. Running a cool mist humidifier cut down the night time coughing quite a bit also.

Hope everyone's feeling better. This stuff going around is absolutely no fun at all.

I just got over a bad head cold. No sore throat.

It started Monday 10-9. At work in the am, I sneezed a couple of times and then got a chill. That night I had the cold - runny nose, watery eyes, and body aches. Very unusual for me but something was going around work. I am just starting to feel better now.

 

[kandeebunny]

3 bloody weeks of it...sinus infection...to tracheitis...to respitory infection

I want it to go away!!!!

Both DW and I have been battling colds all week. We had to postpone our anniversary dinner Tuesday because I was getting over mine and hers was picking up steam. So we had cheeseburgers by candlelight Tuesday
