…..pretty sure I had it, starting about 10 days ago, just emerging into the world the last few days.
Anyone else ? I had a hacking cough and expectorating phlegm - something I've never had before.
NHS under real pressure. |  | | |  |

The flu currently working its way through my household and yes, the worst part was the cough and the build up of phlegm. Continually felt like I was going to vomit because of the phlegm.
Getting over it now - last week was the worst of it for me. |  |

Two colleagues of mine had it really bad.
One ended up with flu (the really nasty K strain), a bad chest infection and sinusitis. Now on antibiotics and some other hard core meds. |  |

Mates birthday and he’s so ill with it he’s cancelled our trip on Monday to Plumpton races.
We’d bought our Christmas jumpers and everything, bloody annoying. |  | | |

Prevention is the best way to avoid an infection.
Keep your immune system strong, take a vitamin D tablet every day between October and April. Vitamin D is actually more important than C when it comes to immunity.
Vary your diet with as much fruit and veg as you can. Make sure you are well rested.
I work for TfL so shifts all over the place, people coughing and sneezing everywhere, I need all the help I can get!
I notice a lot of people are now back on wearing face masks which is fair enough. If I had a cold I would probably put one on to help stop spreading it around to others. |  | | |

Knowing a spike was coming, I added a pneumonia jab to my yearly flu and since 2020, C19 jabs.
Vaccines are not always 100% successful, but history suggests many diseases are held at significantly at bay by maximum vaccination.
Also, while solid advice on vits C, D and a diet centered on a wide variety of plant based food, these should be consumed not as a quick fix but rather, a diet that is your norm. |  |

I'm not in favour of capital punishment but people who turn up at workplaces knowing they have a contagious virus run me close.

Yeah, I have it. Probably been holding it off for a week but been floored for 3 days. Very similar to Covid tbh. Everything smells and tastes like gloss paint. You have my sympathy. My own fault for not getting the flu jab. |  | | |

Been off work all week. No signs yet of improvement. Promised my boss I'd be back on monday. Not looking so good, but I'm going crazy here at home.
Much worse than when I had Covid. |  |

The flu jab might well not have helped - my colleague had one but it apparently doesn't stop the "k strain" or whatever it's caused doing its thing. Be careful out there folks.
Said the bloke who went out on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and who's going out again on Saturday, hosting on Sunday and going out some more next Tuesday and Wednesday and once more on Thursday. | |

Don't underestimate the effects. Post WW1, there was a flu pandemic that killed millions. If eligible, get the vaccine. We had ours early November. + Covid booster. |  |
