Fscking cold, Day 3

I don't think I have the flu.

Be Aware of Common Flu Symptoms

Influenza usually starts suddenly and may include the following symptoms:

* Fever (usually high)
* Headache
* Tiredness (can be extreme)
* Cough
* Sore throat
* Runny or stuffy nose
* Body aches
* Diarrhea and vomiting (more common among children than adults)

Having these symptoms does not always mean that you have the flu. Many different illnesses, including the common cold, can have similar symptoms. [CDC]


No fever, so probably not flu. But I've got all but the first and last. :(

I've also got the best coworkers ever.

And I actually slept through the night last night, yay!

They did a study recently that said that a tablespoon of honey is a better cough suppressant than cough syrup.
Just an FYI in case.

I nearly died from the flu twice.... it is a TERRIBLE illness. So yeah, don't get the flu =(
