Stupid Flu

[firstfrost]

I've been sick for about two weeks now. Most of the real flu symptoms were front-loaded (chills, back ache, rice krispie lung noises) and passed pretty quickly, but I seem to be stuck in "fatigue and general GI malaise" for a while now, and it is annoying me. Work is being sympathetic as I keep declaring more sick days / work-from-home days (because even when exhausted, sitting on the couch with a laptop is something I can do) but I would really like to be done with this.

It throws off my personal self-image quite a bit, too. I don't need a lot of sleep, and I am not very picky about (and like!) food. But now neither of them is true!

Also, mjperson has just as much trouble with lunch when I'm not there as I do with lunch when he's not there, so that's two people with trouble eating.

One of the people who had the illness that went through w91 (sounds much like that one) had a lab-diagnosed flu. It seemed to hit vaccinated and unvaccinated alike.
