Flu the energy zapper

[livewell2]

I am recovering from the flu, temperature, headache, etc. I rarely get sick but boy this one got me. It sapped every bit of energy out of me that I had, and that was not much. Hope I can recover back what I energy and strength I lost.

I’m sorry to hear how the flu affected you. Get better quickly!

[livewell2]

Since I do not get sick often, like never, I was wondering if getting a cold or flu bug affects others the same way.

I find that ms loves it when we pick up any simple cold, bug that’s going around. It seems to zap the strength out of you. At times like these I find that you actually have to give in a bit and go with the flow. That way you don’t use all of your energy. Be as well as you can be, blessings Jimeka 🦋 🍫 🍰

Thanks jimeka. I did not have any choice but to give into this bug. Fortunately it is gone and I am hoping to get get back to normal now. Go to the Y to swim and move about is top on my list!

Take it easy and drink your fluidsick and tell anyone who is sick not to come over your house. I know your reading this and saying are you serious. I am my husband had some one coming over and they had canceled because they were sick 😷 I asked him not to have anyone over who was sick and he looked at me and agreed YEAH lol he did that so now I just have to worry about him and my son.

I hope you get better soon.

Yes! Equally as bad is when we are

Invited somewhere socially and some of the people who show up are sick. How inconsiderate to everyone, not just my MS self

I know exactly what you mean and he gets for us when people come over to my house and they know I have a MS. This past winter I asked my husband know to have people over if they were sick he agreed with me which was a great thing. I think I only got one cold over the winter and that was from him at some when he worked with was sick so my husband got it. You also have to understand I have asthma so when I get sick it could turn into pneumonia. So I really don’t want to be sick I hope you stay healthy.
