I started to feel kind of icky at the beginning of last week. Wednesday I got a terrible headache and stomach flu sypmtoms - by Thursday afternoon my PCP sent me to the ER for IV fluids. I was in bed all weekend, trying to keep down toast and ginger ale. I guess there is a REALLY nasty virus going around up here - I started back to work yesterday, but I'm still feeling pretty under the weather.
The good news is I've lost 9 pounds :)

Flu like symtoms are down here too. Mostly headaches, sinus stuff. Hope your feeling better soon.

I'm sorry that you're not feeling well. I hate to hear that that stuff's going around already. I'm just not ready for flu season. I am glad that you're feeling better.

Sorry to hear you are sick - we've been OK here in Central Texas (that sound you hear is me knocking on wood).

We all just got over the sinus stuff. I hope we don't get the stomach flu like you've had Dobie. I was wondering where you had been, just hadn't had the time to ask. I hope you're feeling even better tomorrow.

We have a slightly different flu going around here too.

I hope you feel better Dobie!

Did you say 9 pounds? Can you breathe a couple of those germs into an envelope and mail it to me. I just need a mild case of this flu.

Thanks for the get well wishes! I'm still feeling pretty run down, but I think the actual illness has finally run it's course - I really hope it doesn't get passed around work again!

Dobie, are you taking some vitamins? Might be a good idea. I really believe the help in the recovery too.

I haven't, but I think you're right - they might boost up my immune system a little bit. Thanks for the suggestion.
