Oh just shoot me now and put me out of my flipping misery 😩

This flu is kicking my ass. It's been a week, and although I don't have a fever coming and going any more ...which is nice....I'm a snot box, my chest feels like someone is standing on it, and I think I pulled a muscle last night when I coughed so much I threw up .
And I'm exhausted just from breathing .

EVERYTHING inside hurts. I'm up nearly all night sneezing and coughing - it just won't let me sleep. And I'm crashing multiple times a day . I'm SOOoo tiiiired of coughing ....it's giving me headaches and my core muscles are DONE !....just flipping DONE !

It's like going back to being a kid again . I can't remember the last time I was sick like this .

Ivr never gotten 'something' , got well for a week, and then got sick again . How does that happen ?
Aren't immune systems suppose to build antibodies the first time round ?

All you guys in the northern hemisphere....watch out for this sucker this coming winter . It's spreading like wildfire down here, work has been short staffed now for MONTHS . People are ending up in hospital with pneumonia.

And if you get it .....ffs ....rest up . Don't go back to work after a few days thinking you are better. People, including me, have done that .....and all it did was hit worse .
It's so energy sucking . I've been living in my pyjamas for days now, and have seriously considered just wearing them to tje shop to get milk I'm just so wiped . (And I've never done that in my LIFE!).
- I didn't ...I went without milk instead -

But guys ....seriously - mask up and keep your sanitizer on you this coming winter. You don't want this sucker.
I'm using up sick days like candy, and I'd love to just change my bedsheets ....but I just can't - im too exhausted to even do that .

What aren't you taking for it?
@TexChik what can you take for a virus ?
It's just gotta support your immune system as best you can .
Anti Virals would give the same symptoms and the virus itself 😆

@OogieBoogie Your sinus infection is likely a secondary bacterial infection, but the symptoms can be treated with OTC meds and supplements so you can stop your sinus drainage and keep it out of your chest.
@TexChik my sinus' are clearing ... Which is why so much green shit is coming out - it's a good sign. I don't know why I would want to stop it draining ...it's how the sinus evacuation system works. The mucus sticks to the little hairs of your sinuses , traps the bacteria or the virus and sends it out of the body .
The cough getting worse is also a good sign...it's lifting the phlegm on my chest .

Sometimes symptoms are indicators of healing and a working immune system .

I know I'm complaining about it...but frankly it's a good sign. It means my body is doing what it should . It just sucks while it's happening 🙄

@OogieBoogie You havent seen a doc for it?
@TexChik yeah...I saw a doc. He said rest, fluids , steam and panandol for fevers ...which I already knew . I just went for the sick certificate 😂
You really can't do much for a virus ...unless it gets bad . It's good to let you body handle it if it can ...it's how the immune system updates .

This is ultimately a good thing for my body. It gives my immune system a good work out and brings it up to date with the latest mutation of the virus.

I'm just complaining coz I feel miserable and I'm bored 😂
