I thought I was finally getting over a cold/sinus infection, finally, but something new took hold of me last night/today. Gross, swollen throat and now I'm getting chilled and extremely achy.
Anyone else got this one? Please tell me it's a "24-hour flu".
The good news is I don't have to worry about using up my sick days. The bad news is I don't have to worry about using up my sick days.

I had the same symptoms 3 days ago. Alka Seltzer Cold made all the difference. And yes, it was gone within 24 hours. Feel better.

I've been in bed sick for 3 days now. It didn't start with a fever, but now I'm over 101.

I had a vicious 24 hour stomach flu. Everything in my entire digestive tract wanted out of my body by what ever opening was closest. I'll leave it at that. It sucked.

I have been sick for 3 weeks. Sore throat run down, doctor thinks it might be mono. Had to have a blood test done.
My brother too (he got the runs and fever. Heh, heh, heh)

Mine started right after Thanksgiving and I battled it on my own for about 3 weeks finally
went to the Dr. he said Sinus Infection, first one in almost a year. Ten days of Amoxicillin
and it's no better, I finished them Christmas Day. I tried to get him to call something in today
but never heard a thing. I guess it's back to the Dr. again.
