anyone sick right now?

the cough of death has hijacked my cold and it has been 10 days of tea, lozenges, staying away from people and wanting to do absolutely nothing. at least im not having an asthma attack anymore after my workouts. that was fun. anyone else?

    I keep managing to avoid this virus that seems to be passing around where I live - I have a brilliant immune system for the most part.
    I'll avoid all the common ones and then someone will sneeze 3000 miles away in summer and I'll catch it!!

    Hope you feel better soon!

    I'm waiting for it. Everyone in my family has had a 24 stomach bug.. and who was dumb and decided to have a cheat day today. Here's hoping I don't toss my cookies. Literally

    I used to get a severe case of bronchitis every year up until 3 years ago. I lost weight, kept working out and I too seem to out run the bugs like stated above.. I run a lot and lift a lot.

    Everyone once in a while I feel like something is getting on me, but it never comes to fruition. I think my immune system too is much much better than before.

    I hope you feel better soon! :)

    Not anymore than usual, but everyone at work seems to be. Influenza A, pnuemonia, Norovirus

    We cram 15 people into a conference room that was built to hold 8.

    We talk for an hour while half of the attendees cough, hack and sneeze.

    It's a wonder that the entire office isn't in the ICU.

    Ick. I hope you get even better soon! Fortunately, I haven't been horribly sick in forever. The most I've had was some sniffles for a day or two.
    Now that I think about it, like @RoxieDawn , this long period of no sickness has started since I started taking care of myself.

    The bf has been coughing constantly for 2 weeks now. He sounds terrible! I've hardly slept listening to all his coughing and snoring and whatnot. Now I starting coughing yesterday...not looking forward to the next few weeks. At least now we can cough in harmony...

    woke up this morning with a fuzzy head and runny nose! Managed to not catch anything all over Christmas, but now its caught up!! I too have a good immune system, and I don't get ill often, maybe couple of times a year. I haven't eaten a lot of vegetables last couple of weeks! I'm blaming it on that!

    My sinus cold started yesterday. I can't breathe through my nose and my head feels huge. I'm down right charming this morning.

    Felt great on Sunday and then flew back back from to New Orleans to Chicago with hacking and sneezing people on the plane and this morning woke up with raw throat and coughing.

    the cough of the devil blew through my house earlier this winter, kids coughing so hard they were throwing up. God, I love being a mother.
    Only thing that worked for me was a sip of blackberry brandy before laying down, otherwise I was coughing fits all night.
    (ok, I was more like a chug)

    Tuesday afternoon I got a horrible sore throat which lasted a couple of days followed by aches all over. It seems to have diminished today thankfully.
