no it isnt swine flu, i thought it may be because ds2 had it a little while back, its just normal flu

i must be unlucky enough to get one of the strains my flu jab didnt cover

hope you feel better soon

my cough is finally receeding a bit, did start 4 weeks ago tho with swine flu, and has ended with still being in hospital with collapsed lung and pnuemonia!

So please do take care.

doc said mine isnt on my chest , but i am needing my inhaler more

worst thing about it Lou, was I was in an ambluence on my way to hospital, instead of on a train to the MN Christmas Party!!!!! Most put out.

I've had the horrible cold and cough for the best part of 7 weeks now. I did feel like death warmed up, but at least now I feel physically better, but the cough still won't go. At choir practice last week, I coughed so much I was nearly sick and had to run to the loo quick-smart. Not to mention the fact that my pelvic floor has the strength and elasticity of a wet paper bag, and I worry all the time about coughing 'til I wet myself.

well why on earth didnt they move the party to the hospital

how very inconsiderate of everyone
