I had it. I have always heard people with a cough or something other out and about say, I have the flu, not feeling so well. The flu is brutal!! I didn't do a dang thing for 2 or 3 days. It was so much worse than I thought of the flu being. I'm convinced after my debacle that if you are talking to me face to face with a slight cough, you don't have the flu! Lol

Started feeling rough around the first of January. Didn't go to the doctor until a couple weeks ago. She thinks I had the flu first and then it turned into pneumonia. Awesome. Been coughing for a freaking month now but finally starting to feel better.
And did not get a flu shot. Now I'm wishing I had. This has sucked.

Had the flu June 9th. Strain B and brutal. In December I came down with a bronchitis that turned into an infection that lasted 5 weeks.
I had the flu in 1997 and 2017 never had a flu shot. My wife and kids get a flu shot every year. I may start getting one.

Caught it (or what I believe was it) on New Years eve. The bad stuff lasted about 3 days and I didn't get to feel 100% until about 12 days later. The second and third day were bad. Whole body ached so bad i couldn't get off the couch.
This is the first time I've had something like that since I can remember. I'm glad I don't get it often.

My 7 year old got type A Saturday morning. He had a fever for 3 days and went back to normal. We all had the flu shot. Seems like even at only 30% effective this year it has really helped those who got the vaccine and still contracted the flu. My 7 year old had a fever and was tired, but none of the other symptoms and was back on his feet after 3 days. The Dr also prescribed Tamiflu for the rest of us just in case, but so far we've all been free (knock on wood).Last edited by rladner; 02-01-2018, 11:19 AM.
