I have the flu for the first time in my life. Started on the 31st. I'm not coughing, though. Nothing usually goes to my chest. It's all upper...I can't breathe through my nose. Two nights ago was the fever, the day before that the body aches. I'm feeling a lot better today, but still crappy. Now I'm just hoping my kids don't get it. I've been taking extra D (already take 5,000IU a day), oil of oregano, garlic, C. I had hoped it would kick it fast. Maybe it is...maybe it would be a lot worse if I weren't taking those things. I don't know. But I'm ticked that I've lasted 35 years without the flu and now have it.
