Two Dead And I Don't Feel So Good Myself

[Snaggletiger]

You know the scene on Airplane where they're listing the symptoms of those who got sick after eating the fish?  "Uncontrollable drooling" and Peter Graves starts foaming at the mouth.  I've been doing that the past two days.  Not drooling...well, not more than usual.  I've been loving life the last 3 days with chest congestion, a cough and some body aches.  No biggee!  Every year or so, I'll get me some cold/flu and life will suck for a week.  Pretty standard for just about anyone.  Yesterday, Snagette calls me to inform me that 2 people have died around the southeast after experiencing flu-like symptoms.  So naturally, I'm going to croak if I don't seek immediate medical attention.

Whatev....I've got to work and post on the X.  Leave me alone.

So, this morning I get the paper (Yes, I still read the paper) and the headline is 2 dead from flu-like symptoms and yes, it's in the southeast.  Southeast Alabama Medical Center here in Dothan.  He reads...

Patients experience fever...

Snags feels his face....yes, I am a little warm..

Trouble breathing...

Snags tugs at his collar to loosen it up and tries, in vein, to take a deep breath

Sudden chills...

What is that thermostat set on?  I'm freezing.

I'm not normally one to go all hypochondriac and imagine symptoms.  If I hurt bad enough, I'll go see a doc.  If I get the flu, I'll slam the Nyquil and Dayquil and deal with it.  But, I'm not a fan of the death thing either.  I do plan on heading to a Doc-in-the-box at lunch to at least get checked out. It's one thing to read that people are kicking the bucket in Virginia.  I turn the page.  It's another to have them doing it a mile down the road. 

I don't feel so good.

I went to the doc in the box yesterday and received a shot in me left buttock and a z pack. Fought this for about 8 days, got some better for a few, then had to go yesterday. I recommend going to try and knock it out.

I'm on allergy injections and this time of the year is terrible for me. Need the steroids to breathe ok sometimes and make my beach body more ripped too.

Have heard about these cases you mentioned. Some in E'prise too linked to families that were at Disney at the same time. Scary stuff. I actually know someone who had to be admitted and was on the vent. Serious bug. Hopefully, they will figure it out soon.

My thinking exactly.  I normally would just tussin' it out but when people are dropping in your own back yard, might be best to at least go say, "Aaaahhhh.." and get a shot in the arse.  Besides, my beach trip is in a few weeks and I could use some testosterone or dianobol to maintain my greek god-like appearance.

Strange things evolve in the Wiregrass area. I'm sure there are some guys close by that will sell you some cocaine. That should work.

Oh, I've got plenty of co.....wait, you were kidding around.  Yeah, that should work.

*puts on the tinfoil*

1 gram of ground cinnamon per day. I mix mine with local honey. It works great.

I also use four thieves oil.

Given the similarity between the avian flu component of this new virus and the 1918 Spanish flu, a possible precaution to take is common household cinnamon from the spice rack. During the 1918 outbreak it was noticed that people who worked at a cinnamon processing factory did not catch the disease. Cinnamon in high doses can be toxic, but a gram a day for adults seems like a reasonable dose.

As side note. During the spring most folks poison Dandelions to their own detriment. Dandelions were put here for a reason and can be used in Smoothies to help detox the body from the winter toxins.

Almond Milk Dandelion Smoothies are a regular treat at my house during the spring months. The shit works. Wrench could even curb her PMS with some. Throw some fresh parsley in there too.

Dandelion greens are pretty awesome… They are loaded with calcium and iron, and are known for their liver cleansing qualities.  Dandelion is used medicinally to support the health of the liver, which is the body’s master detoxifier and cleanses our system of environmental and metabolic wastes.  Because the liver also regulates hormone activity, most hormonal imbalances are treated with dandelion, including PMS, menopausal problems, erratic mood swings, and reproductive issues.  Ayurveda traditions focus on dandelion in the spring tocleanse the body of all of the mucous from the winter hibernation.

Dandelion greens are slightly bitter in flavor, so using sweet tasting fruit along with the greens will help to mask their natural bitterness.

Parsley is another great ingredient to include in your green smoothies, and it’s not only because of its fun flavor…  Like dandelion greens, parsley is known for its cleansing properties, but instead of the liver, parsley focuses its detoxifying energy on the kidneys.  It flushes the toxins out of the kidneys, which helps to prevent kidney stones and improves kidney ailments.  It is included in both smoothie recipes below to add an extra kick of cleansing that does our bodies good!

I have, and it hasn't killed me. Hell, I haven't had the flu but twice in 28 years since my last flu vaccine when I ETS'd the fucking Army. My immune system is the bomb.

Huh, I haven't had the flu but once in my life, and it didn't involve miracle cures I found on Pinterest.
