Ok, I just got back from the doctor. It's not TB, it's some sort of bronchial infection that I can't pronounce.

So, I go the Flu and a bronchial infection.......anyone wanna give me VD so I can hit the Trifecta?

A high school girl in Albany died from the flu though... it's gotta be bad if people that are like 17 are dying.

Influenza is a strange beastie. During the flu epidemic of 1919 20-30 year olds were exceptionally hard hit, and died at a higher rate than would be expected.

My husband woke up ing his brains out this morning. He's been sleeping pretty much all day. I feel so bad for him. Anyone have any little home remedies that might ease the pain a little? He's dreading the thought of being sick on Christmas.

Vomiting can contribute to dehydration. If he can't keep down water or sports drinks he may need to visit the hospital for an IV. To keep the fever down you can alternate Tylenol and Advil.

the worst ever was a about 3 years ago during christmas was when i got a kidney infection... got over that... then my wisdom teeth got impacted, so i had to get those cut out a couple days before the 25th, then i got bronchitis and developed an allergy to vicoden, which i REALLY needed. after all that was over i got the flu. my roomate was gone for most of this & my parents were in town taking care of me. the best part of it alll was that my roomates crazy boyfriend was really sure she wasn't actually out of town so he was creeping around our apartment and looking in the windows and miscellaneous weird shit like that. so, before he saw that my dad was there, every once in a while when i'd come back to conciousness i'd look out the window and see el freako peering back in at me.

i hope i never have a triple whammy christmas again

Thank you Clara . I knew that vomiting can cause dehydration(he has the bad booty on top of that), but thank god now he can drink water and power-aid. His fever doesn't seem very bad right now, but I will get some advil and tylenol tomorrow.

Kealli, weeks two and three sound like bacterial infections rather than viral flu. You need antibiotic ASAP to get rid of the bronchitis. I was completely horrified when I found out that untreated sinus infections can cause encephalitis.

Remember:
