Angry Worst flu I've ever had

Man, this sucks. Flu season has hit full stride, and this must be the sickest I've been in years. Normally I check this site every day or two, but I spent 15 hours in bed today. Got the whole package- dizziness, fever, chills, muscle cramps, you name it.

Any remedies you guys can suggest that take the edge off?

And you show up and infect us Oh I tell you, the noive of some people
I do feel for you. I wish I could offer you some kind of help, but the last time I was that sick all I wanted to do was to sleep for as long as possible. For me that might just be the best thing. Take some Nyquil to knock your a** out and sleep it off.
Hope you feel better!

I assume you did not qualify for a flu shot this year.

The only other thing is within 1 - 2 days of coming down with the flu, taking a medication such as Thera-flu can reduce the severity and longevity of the disease progression.

The worst part of being sick is that you are subject to daytime TV...
sorry!

Get well soon... lotsa Matzoh Ball soup!
