Sucks, looks like I caught a virus of some sorts...been in bed since Monday...starting to feel better so I've got my fingers crossed. I haven't been sick like this in years thankfully. I've lost count on how much gatorade I've drank :rofl:

Yea something like that swept thru my house last weekend and wiped us out one by one. I hope you are feeling better.

Let me guess:
Feverish
Sinus congestion/headache/drainage
Coughing
Chest Congestion
Overall crap-tastic feeling

Pretty much cover it? Excatly what's been running rampant through our office the last month. I'm halfway through week two and close to being back to normal though I'm still coughing quite a bit.

My wife is just getting over the same stuff. It's nasty - she was basically drugged up on OTC medicines and sleeping since Friday.

hope you feel better. be careful how much gatorade you drink. that stuff is filled with sodium and can be counter productive to getting better. I recommend pedialite for you rehydration needs :) May not taste quite as good, but it does a hell of a job.

Works well for hangovers too (but tastes like, well, pedialyte).

I hope that you're feeling better soon, Tom.

Finally got a Z-pack from the Dr. I swear, they only give you drugs if you beg and plead. I hardly go in, you think they would say, he must really be sick, let's fix him up. Arg, after one dose I started feeling better and am on the road to being well again.
