Anybody Get the Number of That Truck?

Jesus Mary and Josephine - I haven't been this sick in literally years - like 20 maybe -

Started Friday, tried to brass it out Saturday at work and by Sunday I was a mess - I had it all going on. Half the guys at work are out and one ended up with pneumonia...

I finally gave up and went to the emergency clinic this morning first thing some sort of flu with respiratory complications the doc said - infected sinuses, ears, explosive case of the runs and my diaphragm sore from coughing and sneezing - all my bones and joints ache, I was even photophobic from the sinus thing -

Extra HD antibiotics and the codeine cough syrup should help - I haven't had this kind of ass-whipping from a virus in a helluva long time - next year I'll get a flu shot I suppose but then that's not a guarantee either -

Anybody else here get hammered with this crap? I understand in RI the flu outbreak was later than usual my wife said - this is brutal -

Can't wait to thank the gal at work who came in hacking, snotting and coughing - - talk about Typhoid Mary

I'm just hoping to recoup in time for TFCTFN - I was able to get the nite off for it - I'll be PO'd if I still have the crud by then, and I don't want to give anyone else this 'gift' if I'm not...

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
