View Full Version : I almost died...

I swear...
Saturday - big wedding & crazy party
Sun - dry weird cough, thought maybe just from screaming and smoking cigars the night before.
Mon - fever, crazy cough, could barely talk I was coughin so much, and every cough was so hard I would almost puke.
tues - I woke up 65% dead. fever, cough, snot, flem, could barely stand. Only stayed awake for about 3 hours the entire day. Could barely move anywhere. Just slept meds slept meds slept meds slept meds
Wed - woke up a different man. WOW. Could function again. Trying to catch up on my interwebz.
I'm guessing a bad bout of the flu.
It's going around boys and girls...
And NO I didn't get a flu shot, never have, never will. And NO it wouldn't have helped. Last week a wife's co-worker's husband got his flu shot and was the same sick as me the next day. So this isn't that debate...
be careful out there. And with my new life I turn over a new leaf. I will not tease mud as much and instead concentrate more on bob.
That is all for now.
Yeh i get a sickness like that once or twice a year. A 50-50 mix of of crushed tylenol and coke ingested nasally does wonders to get me out of bed, but sleep really is the only true way to get rid of it

It was probably from the alcohol. Nothing good is without a price. lol

I didn't drink that much for it to be alcohol.
Don't think I ever thought about snortin meds....
Definitely sounds like the flu, how quickly you got it and how quickly the major symptoms went away. Are your muscles still sore?
Flu shot won't work the next day. It takes 6 weeks to become effective. It isn't 100% effective in everyone. It makes some people sick. I have had good luck with it. I have never gotten the flu when I have gotten it, so that's why I get it.

Seriously....are you normally such a whiney little bitch? I feel like I'm listening to some latte drinking 20 something debutant yapping away on her cell phone
"Oh my gawd I was sooooooooooo sick over the weekend. I barely made it through yoga and when I gaught home had to lie down....I was soooooooo sick."
Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.

It also only protects against certain strains of the flu. Flu shots are designer drugs, and they are made to protect from the most common, and most expected strains of the virus for that year.

Its an educated guess every year, I think they go withthe 3 strains they think it will be. A few yrs ago they guessed wrong and it was messy.

I just want to know why the only time I ever get really sick is when I actually get the flu shot, usually within the first week of getting it too.

Because you are injecting yourself with the flu and a bunch of other shit, some people's immune system doesn't like it. It never bothers me and I get it free at work, so I get one.

same here... Never had the flu... rarely (talking like once or twice every other year) get sick
cept now that I'm forced (military requirement) to get the flu shot... I'm sick for a week after
course this year I had a stroke... so lets hope that's not a side effect :lmao:

I also kicked a very bad bout of cold/flu once with a hit of orange barrel acid, and a hot shower.
As always, YMMV.

Nyquil? I get the whiskey out... hubby claims I "get sick" just so I can drink it :)
Vitamin D 10,000 units per day, Vitamin C 3 grams per day.
1000mg Vitamin C every day plus Multivitamin. I rarely get sick, if I do it is very mild and short lived. Can't remember the last time I had the flu.

Dude that sucks..hope no damage came of it. Genetics most likely as I think ur only 30 something or from some type of head trauma in the past.

lost all power and motor control of my left side. but I'm getting it back... I'm probably at 80% mobility... and 70% strength... i expect I can make a full comeback... hopefully as soon as the one month mark ie 21 Feb.
as for the cause, they have no idea... not genetic or at least no apparent genetic trait for strokes or clotting... but who the hell knows...

If you want to be really specific, then washing your hands frequently and not touching your face is far more effective than either vaccines or vitamin D.

I now have a couple of stents in my coronary arteries. Surgeon said I got to the hospital with only a couple of hours to spare. Then got the bill yesterday for $85,000! 'Bout gave me another one. Like you, my cholesterol is "perfect" and no family history. Ya just never know.
Again, I wish you the best of health.

That's why I always make sure that I have traveller's insurance, when I'm down there, even though my insurance through work covers me. Up here an ambulance ride typically costs $50.00, whether it's 1 mile or 20 miles from the hospital.

Oh I was still sore as FUCK.
I had a bad day yesterday at work... I almost quit... I'm sick of my boss and his shit.
but I was coughin so hard I pulled something in my neck/head area... it feels like my head is in a vice!!!
I get the flu maybe every other year... fuck the flu shot...
