There's a lot of that going around. My understanding is that the flu season got off to a slow start but it's full on now.

drink lots of water, get some rest, eat some food, avoid people you care about, I'm sure you'll feel better soon

I've basically been hit by what seems to be 3-4 different viruses since December. The massive fever was the last one. A cold towel, acetaminophen, and taking in a ton of fluids finally broke that one for me and it suddenly switched from a baking dry overheat to the sweats at which point my temperature went down very quickly

oh no, that’s awful :(

oddly, my only symptom of sickness is fever and ocasional body pains

I had a cough that has also escalated into a sneeze and generalized inflammation, and feel like I'm basically Made Of Gross (even more than usual...). My nose has turned into a faucet x_x this shit fucking burned my entire work week. Pretty sure this is a flu strain. Gonna see urgent care in the morning I think. Bleh.

Talk to your doctor.

In Australia there's a free government helpline that connects you to a registered nurse who will triage and direct as needed.

I picked up a leg infection this past week bad enough that I've had a wound dressing and been on bed rest a lot. So bored!

Started of with a fever too so I can sympathise with that awful feeling.

disco fever!

[-] lazynooblet@lazysoci.al 2 points 1 week ago

I feel ya.

I'm on the other side of a flu bug and I'm so relieved. This morning is the first time I've slept through the night and not woken up in a cold sweat with excruciatingly aching legs and back for 4 days straight.

Started as a harmless cough, escalated to full blown flu in 3 days. Today, day 8 I think I can actually do things.

Just in time for my wife to start her day 3, so I can look after her like she did me.
