I Think I Have the Flu
Body aches, sore throat with a touch of laryngitis, and generally feeling yucky.
Last night, I went to bed at about 8pm. My memory is hazy about what happened when, but I was shivering uncontrollably for a while. I got up to use the bathroom and I was nauseated. I can't remember the last time I was nauseated - it just doesn't happen. Thankfully I didn't throw up (I hate throwing up).
In the half awake time before I got out of bed, I was so warm that I was sweating. It was great after the shivering.
For now, it seems like the fever is broken. I feel better this morning. Just a little run down and the laryngitis is sticking around.
Has anyone else got the flu this season?
