  • Still Sick

    I tossed and turned all night before finally drifting off to sleep just after 6 AM.  I read for a bit, watched some TV and just tried to clear my head.  But none of that worked.  I woke up around noon and went back to bed around 4:30PM for several hours of much needed sleep.  I hate being sick.  I missed my Sunday dinner with dad and dinner with J and his family.  The nieces and nephews called after dinner to say hi and that was sweet.  I hope to get some rest tonight.  This is odd, I had my flu shot last week so I figured I would be immune to the flu.  But I guess this is just a very bad cold.  Maybe I'll make some congee tomorrow.

  • Heal my friend. HEAL!

  • Get well soon, and Happy New Year!!! :)

  • It's nice that they called to see how you're doing. Feel better soon. I know your dad and everyone misses you as much as you them.

  • Holiday flu is the worst.  I hope you're better by New Year's Eve.  Happy New Year! 

  • Early happy new year to you!

    Get better soon >_<

  • Feel better! Gotta be well on NYE...good health for 2011!

  • HUG HUG Get well soon!
    You never know about these things as flu!
    They are part of the mystery of life!
    I don't trust in flu shoots.
    They are only "guesstimation" of
    what might be in circulation
    in the coming season.
    Take care! ^^

  • I'm pretty sure there's too many strains of flu to just be immune to it XD. I had it earlier though and it's horrible, hope you get well soon!

  • I'll send you some abalone & chicken congee from Hong Kong! Get well soon before the year end!

  • The shots work by giving your body an opportunity to build an immune response.  Takes a while to work.  Bet you got sick before the shot had time to do you any good.  Plenty of rest, plenty of fluids and stay warm.

  • I hope you feel better soon.:^) I have been sick since Christmas so I know that feeling and would not wish the way that I was feeling upon anyone. I am just getting over what bug I had. I was taking all kinds of Theraflu and Advil but nothing seemed to work. Get well

  • Yes, some congee should help.  Send your bf to Chinatown!!  Get well soon!

  • get well soon!

  • Indeed send you boyfriend to Chinatown to the herbalist. I think the flu shots needs about 2 weeks to be effective.

  • Well, even with the flu shot it doesn't necessarily protect you from every other bug floating around.  Hope you get well soon.

  • My standard impression on fashion Louis Vuitton is impressive and unique. they are popular for that exceptional sturdiness and reliable design. within purpose you are only one while using sit back and watch addicts, then i am particular you are going to become obsessed these wristwatches in the original glance.

  • get well soon.....like what other have said, you might be attacked by another type of flu virus....

  • it may have not been the best week for you but i wish you a great new year ahead.  get well soon and stay warm.   

        -warm hugs-

    @oxyGENE_08 - thanks Gene, I hope 2011 will be kind to me in terms of health.  I hope you survived your NYE celebrations. 

  • @ZenPaper - I'm glad it wasn't the flu although there were some flu like symptons.  I think it was a very bad cold.  I'm recovering nicely now.  Thanks for the hugs and all the best to you in 2011 Evan! 

    @pika_whoosh - it's likely a bad cold but thankfully the worse is over.  Thanks for the well wishes Matthew - have a great 2011!

    @Toro69 - the worst seems to be over *keeps finger crossed*.  I think it's a very bad cold rather than a flu although I had some body aches and the chills.  All the best to you Fred in 2011!

    @brooklyn2028 - thanks Sheldon, the worst of this bad cold is over and while I'm not 100% yet, at least I can go outside!  And yes, he did pick up some congee.

    @onmovement - I will... btw love the pics of you and Daniel from Chris's blog. 

    @Fatcat723 - 2 weeks?  Yeah, I think you're right.  I hope I don't pick up anything else for the rest of the year.

    @christao408 - I think I need to wrap myself inside a giant condom or something.... I'm finally feeling well enough to leave the condo!

    @agmhkg - thank you, it's interesting - you must get exposed to all sorts of cold and flu bugs in your line of work.  How do you stay healthy?

    @rudyhou - thanks Rudy, I'm feeling a lot better now.  I wish you all the best for 2011 too! 

    @Fongster8 - yes thank you, I'm feeling a lot better today - best I've felt all week.  Yay!!!

  • 1. May be you are responding to the virus in the flu shot.

    2. The flu shot covers only certain strains. There are a bazillion other viruses around.

    3. It could be a simple cold and congestion.

    4. Now, for the last time, do you have a humidifier/ vaporizer in your bed room or not?? Get one. See how good you feel.

  • @ZSA_MD - hi, it looks like it was a pretty bad cold.  Yes, I do have a humidifier and I fill it every night.  It gets very dry in my condo around the winter time.  

  • @ElusiveWords - guess what? I've got the crud now. Thanks a lot Matt. I thought you liked me.

  • feelin' better? 

  • @ThePrince - yes I am, thanks for checking in.
