When I got sick, (before CFIDS) I was down for the count. Usually 12-24 hours, and then I was up and running. My absentee record at work was MAYBE one day a year.

Then I got CFIDS....:o([
I can usually avoid every 4-5 “bugs” that come around, but when I do catch one it will put me down hard and fast, although like you, MF, I recover quickly. Based on the lump growing in my throat I suspect I may catch this one since I have been on extremely close contact with her lately.
But I can look up because next Wednesday through Friday I will be away on business which means I can actually hang out in very nice surroundings and FReep sporadically during the day and all night long with no interuptions. I’m looking forward to it...
