Despite having my 'flu shot earlier this year, I now have a rotten dose of something. Shocking sore throat and had next to no sleep last night. I definitely have to give up those needles and broken razor blades. :shock: :shok:

Kept feeling like I was choking. My voice is so raspy it's almost laughable. Will be resting up today and hope to start feeling better. Anything will be an improvement on the present situation. :Alvarin_33:

Get yourself off to the doctors Nancy.
If you have what me and mrs trout had it will knock you for six mate.
There are some real nasty flu strains about this year.

Went to the DR yesty, didn't get much advice apart from what I already knew. Keep up the fluids, take some cold & Flu caps. Actually will be cancelling an appt at the Hosp today for a totally unrelated problem.

I've heard that the flu shots are usually for previous season viruses and no help
against any new strain so you can never be fully protected.Anyway get well soon Nancy

Thanks all for your good wishes. :friends:

It only took a few hrs to go from small irritation of throat to full on hoarseness, coughing & all that goes with it. Ugh!! and OMG, when I sneeze it feels like I've got an open packet of tacks running loose in there.

AtB for a speedy recovery.A bit of lemon juice,$3 at Woolies,in a schooner glass of water every hour always helped me.
