Hi everyone,

I am on like day 9 of this flu. My doctor says there is nothing to do unless it moves into an infection (hope not) at which point I can take an antibiotic. I just have to stay home, keep hydrated and treat symptoms, and rest.... It's going around So. Ca. I had a bad reaction to the whooping cough vaccine that did not go away in time for flu shot. Everyone get your flu shot. Anyway, I am just checking messages from time to time. I don't feel that prayers are really needed. Positive energy and thoughts are always good. But I have had the humor beaten out of me in the past 24 hours.

We have no choice but to take the flu shots which is a good thing since the home pays for it. I pray for you a speedy recovery.

At night before bed rub a big ol delicious glob of Vick's vapor rub on the bottom of each foot then put on socks and see how you feel in the morning.

Thanks guys......I am just laying on the couch eating English muffins when I can keep something down, drinking fluids when awake and watching PBS and the rest of the time going unconscious on the couch...I am actually shutting down the computer in between logging on because it's hours at a time. My house has gone to HE double hockey sticks with no one else around to help clean. UGH. boyfriend/husband would be no guarantee in that area...trust me No no OJ but you reminded me to take my vitamins... thanks...have the vitamin C with rosehips...

I have the same problem a month ago, until I get tired of taking antibiotics. A good friend suggested Milk and honey. I know it is weird but if you can take it with crushed garlic the better. If not just take milk and honey. Just give it a try. It worked for me. Hopefully it works for you too. Rest. Good luck :)

Polish cure all....the Hot Toddy.

Cup of hot tea with a teaspoon of sugar, a squirt of honey and lemon and a shot of whiskey. It cures EVRYTHING!
Not kidding.
