Because of the stupid rules about getting into the VA clinic...
No flu shot this year.
Guess what I've promptly contracted!
The flu!
The Boy preceded me into this foray by a couple three days and he appears to have caught it from his daytime excursion person. She got sick about a week ahead of The Boy and I followed him.
C'est la vie.
It's affected my posting because all I've wanted to do is sleep, as I always do when I've got the flu.
Is it Wu Ping Cough?
The excursion person got tested and she's negative.
Even if this is the Rice Rabies, it wasn't as bad as many other instances of the flu.
I got a fever, got body aches, got my sinuses all full, got the sinuses to drain all at once.
Also normal for when my sinuses clog and drain like this; no sense of smell.
Still have my sense of taste, but blunted from the lack of olfactory cooperation.
Tonight I was able to smell the smoke from the firepit.
No fever any more.
Nose is done running, but my nasal passages are dry as a bone. Ugh!
I hope you are feeling better. Whenever I get that crud I just straight shot about half a bottle of Nyquil and knock myself out for about a day at a time. Sleep is the best medicine, right after Nyquil.
