I'm trying to imagine just that.

Make sure you are getting enough fluids Teri. I always count down as the cold moves through my system. After it leaves my head and throat(the most miserable part of it, in my opinion!!)
then moves into my lungs, I know it's on it's way out of my body.

You hit that on the head. Today's the first day I've been really coughing.

Hurry and get better. Do you have a heating pad to wrap around your feet? That helps too. At least it feels like it's helping and keeps the chills down a bit.

Enough is enough already! I went to the doctor this morning. They tested me for "the flu" and said I had some virus going around. Judging by the number of people who had the same raw nose and vacant look I have who were sitting in the waiting room, I'd say this "virus" is running wild. We've got a dozen or so people at my office out with this too.

Anyway, I got 2 shots and a bottle of antibiotics, cause now I have a wicked sinus infection too, so I should FINALLY be on the road to recovery.

Thanks for all the support everyone. What a terrible virus this is indeed.
