I feel like 💩 so let's play would you rather? Which flu/cold symptom is the WORST / MOST ANNOYING for you? RN my eyeballs/face are gonna explode?

[DrPepper12]

Why can't people just let you be? Ik people are always well intentioned with advice but it's MY BODY I'm kinda familiar with it by now and know what I need!! Great if "X" works for you!!

I left out fever, chills, insomnia, sneezing and my #1 nemesis year round: impacted ear wax (it's hereditary - thanks a lot my mom!). 🕯️

I'm also kinda curious. I've NEVER ever ever ever lost my appetite while sick - HBU? 🍔🥣🥪🥞🥡🍝🌮

Also, are you an anti nasal spray person cause you'd rather die than feel & taste the spray leaking down your throat? 🤢

Hope everyone has a great weekend! Going back to bed I hope... 😴

Sinus headache

Scratchy 🔥 throat

Diarrhea / nausea

Aches / pain / fatigue

Runny nose

Coughing

Something else...

[Beckybooboo]

I know how you feel. I woke up in the middle of the night sick: fever, of course with body aches, fatigue, insomnia, runny nose... lol everything you mentioned. I don't have a cough yet. I knew it was a matter of time, because my boyfriend was sick a week or so ago. I do lose my appetite, I'll lose up to ten pounds if I get really sick. Today all I ate was a bowl of Raisin Bran and some fruit. The worst, is when you feel you've slept for a couple hrs, then look at the clock and it's only been 15 minutes! That's how it's been most of the day. I hope we both feel better soon ❤️

[DrPepper12]

TY n hope you feel better!

[Beckybooboo]

I feel a lot better today, thanks. Still extremely tired but the fever is pretty much gone, so I can get good sleep lol my appetite is coming back also. Last night I was about 30%, right now, I'm about 60%. How are you doing?

[DrPepper12]

Truly better. Rest really works!

[WhiteSteve]

Hope you feel better soon, man!

For me, it’s the stuffy nose, like the swollen adenoids. For years I would just blow the hell out of my nose thinking it was mucus, but it’s just the feeling of the swelled up adenoids themselves.

Honorable mention to chest congestion/shortness of breath, because I already have asthma, so it’s pretty uncomfortable.

[DrPepper12]

TY and my fam has those issues worse than me. My son has his removed at 5 yo it was so bad

[Likes2drive]

Whenever I do get sick, I just can’t stay in feeling so tired stuffed up and constantly coughing. Luckily, I really don’t get sick very often. I haven’t had the flu in over 10 years and I never got Covid but I still get an annoying cold once a year

[DrPepper12]

Yeah. Cold here n it sux. Ty

[NathanDavis]

to me... it is the fatigue

I don't care about the pain, I don't mind the annoying systems...

but the dread of moving 200 pounds of me, with that weird ass fatigue... lmao

[DrPepper12]

I feel ALL of that!

[Cormac995]

For me it's my nose. I have allergies so if I get sick my nose gets completely stuffed to the point I can only breath out of my mouth it's incredibly frustrating.

[DrPepper12]

Must make sleep impossible. Sorry!

[Cormac995]

OMG YES!!! I hate going to bed with a stuffed nose it's impossible to breath comfortably and it makes it hard to fall asleep!

[exitseven]

I hate the coughing because I just cough constantly. I usually sit up and watch TV all night in the living room so I do not keep my wife up all night. It really sucks. I have been sick twice this winter.

[DrPepper12]

Sorry. Spring can't come soon enough!

[exitseven]

next week is the end of January, February is a short month and March is the unkindest month of all but once we ger past it it will get better.

[Dongie]

Aches Pain & yeah.
I hope you get to feeling better Doc.🦋🪺🪻

[DrPepper12]

TY getting there slowly but the fatigue is just a killer. TY

[Dongie]

I know it is. You feel as tho you'll never have energy or feel good again.

[Anonymous]

Covid. It was basically flu and harmless.

[Sevenpointfive]

did you know that dry ear wax was a thing?

[DrPepper12]

Yes.

[Sevenpointfive]

it really isn't though.
