That's a good thing, ramana42 ! That means you haven't been sick in a very long time. :-)

IN 1962 i was admitted to hospital for typhoid and 1966 for pneumonia. Never slept on a hospital bed ever after.

Wow! I've had flu here and there even when I had the vaccine shot every year. Some years, the shot works better than others.

I'm getting over food poisoning since Saturday early morning. Doing a lot better today so far. :-)

When I get colds,I prepare a concoction called 'Rasam.It has tamarind juice,dry chllies,mustard seeds,curry leaves etc.A hot cup of that tangy stuff gives enormous relief.

In summer, no desire remains for eating.

Drinks, tea ☕️ and sugar free juices always being used.

Is that for when you’re sick, or in general?
