I have been sick with the flu for about a week. it turns out H1N1 is here and affecting many people. I have made it through the crucial time. My respiratory is not doing well but it seems it wont develop into pneumonia at this time.

the secret is the day you get it find a good cough and cold medication with an antihistamine, keep from breathing cool or cold air. (I kept a hanky over my face as I slept or lay down. I ate very little solid food (if you do you will just toss it up anyway. drink and eat liquids, jello or nothing this will keep you from dehydrating. and then pray and sweat it out. my fever average was 101-104 for most of the time. Only today has my fever lowered but only to 100.

we stocked up on medication for everyone here as they begin to show signs. funny thing though not everybody exposed to it is getting it. there are four confirmed cases including mine. I am still fighting it.

so keep our household and church members up in prayer. I preached Sunday from a scant outline (i couldn't think much). It went well despite my being very sick. He was strong and I was weak.

thanks

Praying for you brother, we have some flu here in our household but not nearly as bad as what you describe.

God Bless you and yours

PS Im still working on the website, hard drive crash lost all the weeks work I had already done (backup was on another partition on same drive)

Sis Jassy, thanks for your prayer and concern. God bless you...

We are praying that this flu goes by and it is not as bad as it seems. if they would have recorded the number of people who died last year from any flu it seem pandemic. It is just a bad flu if you have previous medical condition it does seem to use that weakness in your body to really debilitate.

today my fever stayed around 100 and the body aches are really bad. but my lungs are better and I can eat more.

Bro Chette, I'm praying for you! That doesn't sound like fun at all!!! I'll pray for your church members as well. I hope you're feeling stronger and better soon!

I read on some forum, that the only people who have gotten vaccinations for flu, in the past 4 years are susceptible to the h1n1 strain.
Have you been getting flu shots?
I quit taking them a few years ago. They never did any good, anyways.

Sis, in my case, that seems to be true. I haven't gotten the flu for many many years and I rarely get colds or any other illness and, if I do, it's a very LIGHT version that only lasts a brief time. The most recent time I got a flu shot, probably 20 years ago, I got terribly ILL - from the SHOT!!! I was fine before the shot - and ever since then I've refused to get a shot and I've felt fine. No flu illnesses whatsoever.

Same here, Jassy. I hardly ever get sick. I caught a flu a few months ago that was going around and I only felt a tiny bit under the weather for one evening. I stay away from doctors and their shots, vaccines, drugs and tests. I feel a lot safer that way!
