anyone else got a nasty flu?
« on: April 10, 2008, 06:27:18 PM »
I have a really bad case of flu, one of the worst I have ever experienced.

I keep getting tired, shivering, and coughing and sneezing constantly. lol

Anyone else got a flu? There must be some really bad ones going around atm.

regards,

Ben.

Hey man,

if you got the flu then you shouldn't be using your computer. Evidently a computers keyboard stores more germs and bacteria than anything else in the house. Yes, that includes the shower and toilet!! That means you could've picked up the virus from your keyboard and you could be passing it along to everyone else by using it.

Sorry, lot's of useless info there.

You mean I can catch it by responding to this thread? I am gonna pour bleach over my keyboard now.

Seriously, Mrs 38th says get some elderberry extract and keep off alcohol and dairy and sugars and  get some echinacea down your neck. Plenty of water too she says.

The past year has been pretty poor for me in terms of health.  Maybe it's the computer thing (I work in IT), but it all started last March, when I got pneumonia.  Which I thought only old ladies contacted these days...  (I'm actually a 36 year old man, not an old lady...)

Took me months to shake that, and have been prone to coughs and colds since.

I've been flu-ish throughout the whole winter. I'm well now so stay the hell away from from me.

I've had a mild flu all this week, but as we all know, even a mild one can knock you for six, I feel like total cr@p! Worse thing is because the bugs have been so bad this year I've been off work a couple of times now (I have a bad immune system) and now I'm on my 2nd DISCIPLINARY meeting about being ill too much!!!!!

I hate company policy.    :evil:

The more I hear about Mrs. 38th the more she starts to sound like some kind of nomadic shaman-healer! Cool.  8)

Mrs 38th is a Shaman healer type but not very nomadic Sam. She has actually weaned me off paracetamol -the only thing capable of fixing my headaches. She has obtained these fantastic little pills that are made of turmeric( yes the stuff you put in your curry) and it works a treat on pain relief.

good point about the keyboard, I'll give it an industrial scrub down with titanium wire wool with bleach added, but I'll wait til the flu has gone.  :lol:  I've not even been playing guitar and can't be botherd doing anything right now, I've had some success at dribbling and snot noseing my best friends though.

Not had any flu this year but today was my penultimate visit to the dentist, the 9th! I've been having 2 root canals and another minor filling done. The dough I've dropped on my teeth would have bought me a Les Paul Custom!

My brother put his back out with a bad case of Vitus Gerulaitis playing tennis on the Nintendo Wii!!  :lol:

Get well soon flued up geetar guys!
