Pretty sure I got nailed by the flu.
It's a nasty bugger, intense muscle/joint aches, low grade fever, headache, malaise and it seems that every body part is effected.
Oddly the coughing, sneezing and runny nose are slight.
Almost no sore throat however lymph nodes in the chest and neck are aching though. Screwing up my sense of balance at times as well.
Wheezing at times but with a occasional productive cough right from the get go.
Even though the coughing isn't intense, it hurts.
This comes on fast and nasty.
If you get this, rest, rest, rest.
You will pay heavily if you try to be active.
Don't eat or if you are hungry, small portions... yeah it torches to GI track too.
Rest or you will pay; do not underestimate it.
These buggers can and do kill... weakest link.
If you push it you won't know you crossed the line until it's too late.
Conserve your energy; whatever it is, it can wait.
On day 4, it's still giving and that's with me completely resting.
Resting will keep you out of the hospital and lessens symptoms.
Leave the fever burn; it's part of the body's defense mechanism.
Eating raw garlic cloves may help especially in the beginning phase.
