bad cold sucks but is really no big deal
bad flu can kill you

Caught the flu twice in December. Developed into a nasty dry cough towards the end of fighting off the second flu. Never felt worse in my life before. Doctor diagnosed me with "Post Viral Fatigue Syndrome" and the lung x-rays results showed signs of mild bronchitis.

This sounds like the same flu that swept the southern hemisphere last winter ... the nasty dry cough will linger for weeks and relapse flu bouts for 2, 3 or even 4 relapses about 2-3 weeks apart.

Also watch out for people with heart conditions, the virus appears to be attacking lung and heart muscles, cases of flu-induced heart failure were being reported, especially amongst the elderly.

oh. fun.

yeah, I know it was hell ... really sneaky bastard thing too.

The first bout was headaches, runny eyes, achey bones, tiredness, acute symptoms but nothing too serious ... then when you thought you were over it, BAM came back again in 2-3 weeks with sore throat, sinus pain, runny nose, coughing, laid up in bed ... then after getting over that it came back again in 2-3 weeks with all the chest pains, dry cough, really fucked-up feeling.

Like a designer flu the pharmas designed themselves in terms of amount of care and medicines needed to combat symptoms, but they over-stepped the mark with that heart failure shit Roll Eyes

... evil.
