Swine flu definitely catches me today

That unmistakable ache throughout the body.

Struggling to finish my WPR column. Got 500 in yesterday. Trying to drive it home.

Chicken Soup with a touch of green Chile . . It's something you can still taste and will clear your sinuses . . Other than that, hang in there Tom, and do slow down for a couple of days . . .

I stopped oinking after 72 hours. IOW, my case of A/H1N1 hit HARD on Tuesday, kicked my butt through Thursday. My energy was reduced through Saturday of that same week, but by Sunday was on the treadmill for 4 miles. Not sure if the Tamiflu was responsible for the speedy recovery. If you get the "gastric distress" that some get, BRAT. Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and Tea. Bound me up quickly.

Actually, how do you know for sure it is H1N1? Because you were vac'd against other flues?
