Sluggo42 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Omg, I've been sick going on 3 weeks now, and I'm so tired of it. Tried to play last week and struggled to my worst score in a long time. I drove decently, but could not hit an iron/wedge to save my life. I have a nagging cough and chest/sinus congestion that just won't go away...

ddryan Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 YEP- been dealing with this since after thanksgiving. Went to Dr- bronchitis - prescribed broad spectrum antibiotic, 5 days, and an inhaler- Still wheezing and occasional cough but not nearly as productive or deep as it was initially - I was actually cramping up I was coughing so much- now it is only a few hacks / hour! and has been making the rounds - several others are similarly infected...

ddryan Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 And, OBTW, not the Flu, as I had my shot - and frankly, did not feel like a normal cold, as I had no fever and no aches or fuzzy head- just this stupid cough and a heavy nasal drip into my lungs...NASTY What's in the bag?

Canucklehead Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Started catching it about 3 or 4 days before Christmas. When I start to feel something that bad coming on I head to the gym in full sweat suit and bike or run for at least half an hour then find the hottest shower there and try and clear up my nose/chest as much as possible. However it was strong enough to pass onto the SO, who passed it onto some of hers and my family Sent from my E6853 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excourse Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Omg, I've been sick going on 3 weeks now, and I'm so tired of it. Tried to play last week and struggled to my worst score in a long time. I drove decently, but could not hit an iron/wedge to save my life. I have a nagging cough and chest/sinus congestion that just won't go away... Gahhhh I'm on day 6. Muscle soreness, congestion and generally feel like the life has been sucked out of me. Last year around this time I has the flu, and was down for 6 weeks. The worst part was, I lost all hearing in my right ear. Yep, I didn't know it was a possible side effect either, but apparently it is. Be careful, get to the doctor early.

MDGolfHacker Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Got zapped this weekend after drinking too much at a neighbor's party. Woke up to the chills. Ended up taking some cold and flu medicine, napped the next day for 6 hours and was feeling OK Monday but still have some nasal drip.

GolfSpy MPR Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I'm just going to assume that anyone clicking "like" on the posts in this thread means something like, "Dude, that's awful, get well soon," and not, "I think sickness is awesome!"

Kenny B Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I've been around a lot of sick people lately. So far I have been lucky; must be too ornery. My wife taught high school 10 years ago and her kids were always sick. She started taking Airborne, and that seems to work pretty well if you take it before getting sick. Once you get sick, I don't think it helps much. She's pouring it down me for the next couple of weeks hoping we don't get sick before we leave for Palm Springs. “We don’t stop playing the game because we get old; we get old because we stop playing the game.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattF Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I got a dose of whatever is going around last week. Started with an itchy throat, progressed to tight chest and coughing up God knows what.

Sluggo42 Posted January 9, 2018 Author Share Posted January 9, 2018 I heard this years flu shot was only effective 10% of the time... What's the point?

bullldog Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I haven't been as sick since I stopped taking flu shots. I did have a bout @ Thanksgiving but self medicated & was over it in a week But never the full blown flu.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping I don't get the flu (and no, I didn't get the flu shot this year). MDGolfHacker What they don't tell you is that the flu shot is only 55% effective. Not sure if that's because of different strains of flu or the way body reacts.
