You have what I've been calling "the Plague." Basically everyone I know has had it this summer. It hangs around forever, and makes you feel bad, but not bad enough to see a doctor, and it doesn't respond to antibiotics, most likely because it's a virus.

Also, it seems super-contagious. Since I'm currently the only healthy person in my home, I'm just waiting for round three.

Good luck getting over the Plague, Mr. Peacock.

Sounds just like something I had a few months ago. I walked around for a month because it seemed like a cold. Sore throat leading to laryngitis, etc. I finally caved and went to the doc, got antibiotics, and was muchmuch better within 5 days.

Gosh me too. I've felt sick on and off for over 4 months now, coughing is the worse part. It wakes me up at night. I bought an air cleaner plugged it in and feel a bit better in the mornings, now I hear using the ionizer can cause cancer.
what to do what to do?
And ya doc says get rest take vitamins yada yada and so on, so looking forward to feeling better soon. Hope you get over it quicker, you seem healthy generally speaking.

I've got a sore throat and runny nose right now, and I'm nowhere near CA. Viruses generally don't respond to antibiotics. I think you got two different mutations of a virus that your immune system hasn't met before, and you probably have a secondary bacterial infection from getting run down.

I've come to understand that you're a generally lazy laid back type-B personality who would never try to juggle many huge projects at once. You probably are in bed by 8pm each night, and would never fly all over the country in germ moshpits known as planes. And you certainly wouldn't be on your deathbed one day and then decide to GO ON A FREAKIN HIKE.

Dude.

Out of curiosity, does Andrea have any of those shock collars for dogs that zap you if you leave a certain area? No reason.

If only there was some process in place to prevent people from taking things like antibiotics without talking to someone knowledgeable first.

Bad Andrea for not finishing the antibiotic prescription that was written for her! Bad Joe for taking prescription that was written for someone else! Basically both of you did the same thing with having only half a course of antibiotics, but I guess luckily Andrea's immune system was strong enough to totally kick out the germs she'd had.

Your stupidity is our gain,though. More Joe writings, yay!!

I hope you feel better soon.

I had one very similar to that last year. I had it for roughly 6 weeks. I wonder if it was that Swine Flu shit.
