So I have this Wimpy Virus ...

[musclemom]

... it sucks. I'm not sick enough to be really SICK, you know, truly pathetic, lying on the sofa with the clicker, wimpering, living on hot soup and cold juice.

No this is some sort of pathetic wimp virus. I've got occasional laryngitis, a sometimes stuffy nose, and this upper respiratory thing that comes and goes. I feel vaguely run down and don't want to work out (which really blows because I was looking forward to getting back into a routine), I'm cold if I'm out of bed but too hot under the covers and everything is an effort. I'm not achy, I'm not headachy, but I am crabby and irritable. Don't feel like cooking, don't feel like eating ...

I finally get the kids out of the house and I feel too blech to pull it together ... oh, bugger ...

Not looking for sympathy, just wondering WTF ... how can you be sick but not sick???

'Tis the season.

Just a thought - if its a recurring thing, make sure you dont' have something like Epstein - Barr.

I dunno, HT, is that the next stage, computer viruses mutate into human viruses and transmit via unprotected cybernetic hijinx

Sh*t, I know! It's the bird flu ... the pandemic has started, we're gonna die

Hold me ... I'm too young to die ...

Thanks Scorpio!!! I don't feel sick just not well ... y'know? Actually posted this up to see if anyone else had a case of the blahs ...

I'm an elderberry girl, echinacea never has helped me, but it does work for my husband so I always keep it on hand

Not recurrent Sassy, just ... annoying

I have had the same thing going on, had it three weeks ago, it went away for a few days then came back full force, ended up with a sinus infection. I hope you feel better and it goes away soon.

I actually finally JUST got better from something like that. I was like sick one minute, and then the next I felt ok, and my throat hurt and I had no apetite or energy. It really sucked. Im glad I can finally go to the gym. The best advice some of the girls told me was to take the hint my body is giving me and just stay in untill im better b/c thinking about getting in the gym is a bad idea. I also got better from taking a TON of vitamn C and non-caffeine teas. I drank nyquil a few nights just to sleep better and if your throat starts to hurt, use some throat spray, that thing is a life saver. Other than anything, the best medicine right now is to just relax, sleep, and rest a lot.
Hope u feel better soon!
