I am not on the government’s side on this, by any means.
But I just want to tell you that this flu is not just any flu.
I had it all last week. It started on Sunday with the chills, fever, and cough. BOOM. Fevers crept up, every inch of me was in pain, I had trouble breathing. I am fit and healthy and it knocked me off my socks. 102 fevers. On Thursday I could not breathe right, felt I was “dying” or losing consciousness. They took me to the doctor and he put me on a heavy antibiotic, which saved me.
The chest X ray showed pneumonia in my left lung. I am now feeling human again but weak and of course coughing. I never smoked a day in my life. No history of anything.
This flu is really serious even for healthy people. Don’t kid yourself. It is not all [bleeping] hype.
Rush said that several times while I lay semi-coherent listening to him, and I so wanted to let him know that he would NOT enjoy how sick this flu can pretty much instantly make you.
Glad you are doing better. Flu is very serious and anyone who thinks otherwise is foolish.
