I'm never sick. Usually, if I get something it'll be gone in 24 hours, but this one... WTF? Two days of nothing but fire throat, one day of sneezing then ALL THE THINGS at once!

I've got all the usual comforts.. broth, tea, rest, steam, tylenol, Netflix. I'm excited for when I can breath again!

I’m the same and it’s day 5 !!!!

@pepperjones I’m grand but i have had to teach all week with it. I worked in Seattle for a week i was doing music with a show we brought over from Ireland, we were in the Broadway Performance Hall, i love Seattle.

@pepperjones I bought a Sax out in Lake City after a couple of days going out there on the bus people got to recognise me on the bus and would say hi Steve, so cool

From all I’ve learned, our immune systems are prettymuch the same. If you’ve ‘had it before,’ you body will recognize it, and with a little rest, take it out! If you haven’t had it, your body has no clue what it’s dealing with, so the battle rages, often a ‘full blown cold,’ or a deep dark flu..

I worked within schools ..or should I say living petri dishes 😕 Aerosol virus with every sneeze! Gone from all that, I’m rarely sick. Rest, then slowly return to regular activity ..and enjoy what time away you can get 🙂

@pepperjones ...maybe you’d gotten those colds way (way) back.. so had latent antibodies. Colds do recycle. I hadn’t, got into the school systems late, thus was susceptible to everything 😕 Did get regular flu shots, though, they worked! Rest up ~

A lot of people are under the weather now. I think it's the change of season coupled with the time change. I know I'm always more vulnerable this time of year, my body has to adjust.

Get well soon.

Whiskey (Crown Royal) always helps...or at least makes me forget I am sick for a bit.

@pepperjones Well you tried 😀

@pepperjones Hey, be fair to yourself. The TV says some incredibly dumb stuff these days and needs to be put in its place. I support your drunken tirade!

This severe cold bug has hit UK too. My colleagues are dropping like flies (me, I carried on regardless, infecting the rest of em 😉 ). It took me about 3 weeks to get over it. Nothing you can do, my best medical advice, rest, fluids, paracetamol and look after yourself.

Get well. Watch The Degenerates on Netflix, especially the Brad Williams and Joey Diaz episodes. It'll help you feel better.

Zinc tablets may help to hasten your recovery, but it sounds as though you have plenty to combat this bug. Also, here's a big, warm, healing hug from me. ?Rest & get well, dear!!
