Red,
I hope you are feeling better!!
I bet you had the good ole' flu. I got it last Feb. started out with what I thought was just a asthma attack from being in the show barn but the inhaler did not work, and then I was coughing so hard that I "got sick". Then I just colapsed and slept for days, had the achey muscles, cold then hot, even when I was hot I was cold, took so many showers trying to warm up. ICK I missed a week of work. And I got it with having the flu shot. I have never felt so bad I thought I was gonna die. I could not eat anything for days just cause I was not hungry, I sipped on 7-UP and then for a week after I was "better" I could only eat chicken noodle soup and 7-Up.
Nobody else got it in my home because everytime I would get up to get water or whatever I would spray everything down with lysol I think I went through 2 big cans in that week. I hope I never get that sick again.
