   Yep, its true. After all my vitamins and elderberry extract I got the 'ole flu. Really, it sucks but it not as bad (symptom wise) as the regular flu I had in March. In March I was pasted to my bed and days passed without notice. With this, I feel achy and gross, but I am still mobile. Even with a fever of 103F I don't FEEL as bad as I did before. Two Flus in one year, when Ive never had one before, how lucky am I???

   SO, Ill have natural immunity now, I suppose that's an upside. Going back to bed, see you all later!

   Oh and after all my primalizing and such, I crave sweets now that I'm sick. I usually crave veg or fat, but now cookies and PB&Js and cakes and Cinnabon (haven't had in years!) keep dancing in my head... wtf?

   Sorry to hear that Toots. I hope you feel better soon. Maria, that's such a cute cartoon. That's what we'll have to do to Toots as well.

    Aw, feel better soon. I am glad to hear that it isn't too bad. I have heard mixed "reviews." One woman at my office was out for two weeks after she developed a deep lung infection, and another friend in his early twenties was out of commission for a week at least. However, one of his friends was better within a day. *Shrug*

    That is too funny that the swine flu has resurrected old cravings for Cinnabon; what a weird side effect.

    Get lots of rest. My ex is getting over it but sounds like you need to not tax yourself in any way.

    Also, if you like garlic I would mince it and add it to soup or whatever you eat. It seems to really kick my immune system into gear.

    Rest and feel better!

    Last night I finally took a shower... and couldnt get out. I got dizzy (I am not the dizzy/sensitive type) and had to lay down in the shower for like 10 min before I got the energy to dry off! Then, I took a nap. So sad.

    Feeling better today, seem to have more energy. I thought so yesterday too.

    Im WILLING myself to get better!

    THX for all the wishes PBers. Love this forum!

    Real broth - a smidge of sea salt, dash of cayenne. If you've got it - some type of seaweed...if you're game add roasted chile...lots of vitC

    Got me over a hangover from hell in a snap years ago. Can't hurt - especially as you are on the upswing...& can stomach some nourishment.

    I'm suspicious of vitamins...

    You know what makes me feel better when I am sick -- Cranberry Apple tea. Along the lines of Osa007 I also find Ginger, Cayenne and lemon tea picks me up.

    Feel better toots!
