You don't want to be talking' 'bout having' a cold these days.

They'll put ya in a diving' suit and lock you in the courthouse basement.

Bingo. Well learned while living/working abroad for years. Last flu, IIRC, was nabbed in a construction camp in Ras Laffan Industrial City Qatar in 2010.

Same/same EdM, there's some funky monkey stuff abroad.

Just sinus stuff.

Seems it can't make up it's mind to be a constant temp.

Warm or cold just pick one,then it adds on rain and sleet for the win.

First one I’ve had in years. I bent over Saturday, and snot didn’t drip out of my nose; it ran out in a solid stream! Never saw that before.

Fighting is a waste of energy. I just let them run their course.

Zinc lozenges help, but feel like you’ve painted your teeth with undercoating.
I believe vitamin C drops help better than anything.

If you have kids like we do, you have to be aggressive. Kids at school are total slobs. All of them.

A can of Lysol in every bathroom. Wash hands a lot. Don’t touch your face. Vitamins every day.

Wabigoon: Nope fine and dandy here - sure hope you get out from under the weather quickly!
I say try fresh orange juice, aspirin, 7-UP and lots of chicken soup then at night use Ny-Quil.
Lay low and no coffee til YOU perk up.

Haven’t had it for several years now. Keep my hands washed and stay TF away from sick people. Any time I start to feel anything coming on I head for the dry sauna in my basement. 30 minutes in a 140 degree box sweats it out. That being said, I’ll probably get the worst sickness ever tomorrow.

Hard to describe my left eye this morning, bloodshot, watery, puffed lower lid.
