My doctor told me last month to not worry about what kind of flu I had. He said swine flu wasn't as nasty as the regular guys. It did take a little longer to go away than usual. Since he's known me for 10 years (and my MS), I get anything the threatens the lungs, we attack with mega antibiotics! No taking chances with pneumonia.

A co-worker got knocked out of commission for a week last week. His doc told him the same thing - don't worry about type of flu.

I hope you feel better soon. Does your doctor think you caught it just out shopping?!?!?!?

My personal opinion of the news has been that it's been hyped, so it's a bit closer to home to hear that you tested positive for it. I hope you can find some comfort while you're experiencing this. Ken

Hope you get well soon. Remember to wash your hands frequently, especially after touching grocery carts, which are some of the filthiest and disease plagued contraptions we have to deal with.

Hi Dejibo -- hope you are feeling better soon. I'll tell ya...I have become such a germaphobe since I got mono, which seemed to morph into MS, and now I'm Tysabri which makes me worry about infection. I have LOTS of purell in my office, my car, my book bag, my purse, my house! If I'm in a store, the first thing I do when I get in the car is wipe my hands with Purell. Anyhow, the good thing is that now you are immune to that particular flu...so if it hangs around and comes back next year you are set! But in the meantime, sorry you are feeling cruddy.

dej,

i'm sorry you were so sick but glad you're on the mend and beat this.
hopefully now you'll have immunity. and you were such a good sport about trying not to infect anyone else.

get well quick.
