This sucks..... I went to the doctor yesterday. I am soooo sick. I have the flu...pretty awful. It is mostly respiratory but it is getting worse. The doctor is treating it as H1N1 until she is sure it isn't. If I am not better by later today I am to go to ER. I am in isolation at home. Can't be around people for a while yet. Can't and don't want to work the rest of this week. It sure came on fast. Sunday I had a sore throat and a low grade fever. Monday I was achy, had chills, coughing my head off and my fever went up. Yesterday I knew I needed to get to the clinic.I have COPD and Asthma and have to be very careful.I am on so many meds all I did was sleep all day yesterday...thus I was up at 2:30 AM. Love and hugs to all...connie d |

Connie, hope you are doing better soon. My DH has COPD and we live in fear of getting flu or other respiratory illnesses.
Everyone else-- be sure to get your 'regular' flu shots(available now), and the H1N1 shots when/if they are available-- and of course, handwashing, handwashing, handwashing! (that's the nurse in me)
Chiming in with the others - keep taking care of yourself. Its the smartest thing to do! Hopefully, you'll be feeling well really quickly. I'll get a flu shot this week at my pre-op physical, I think.
