anyone have this?
Cough, somewhat stuffy, throat hurts and having some stomach issues?
Doc says it's a version of some ick that's going around.
I'm taking tylenol and mucinex.

Re: anyone have this?
I was getting so worried I took her to the Dr. for bloodwork. She also had 2 strep test done too, but they were negative.
I actually posted about it somewhere on here and somebody responded that her nephew's Dr. said there was a virus going around that was lasting 2 or 3 weeks.
My daughter started off with the stuffy head and after a couple of days the stomach thing started - no vomitting - just pains and some diarrhea (sorry for the TMI). She also had constant headaches.
But yeah, I have to say it was three weeks until she was totally back to normal.

Re: anyone have this?
Let's see. Two weeks ago I had the cough, little appetite, very low fever, sore throat, and chest congestion. Finally went to the doctor on 1/27, got an antibiotic even though she wasn't really sure if I needed it..then I ended up with tummy problems. I was fine for a few days, and now I have a cough, sore throat, and nasal congestion. Do'nt know if it's the same thing or something different, but I'm thinking it's viral. My hubby has a cough, and my colleague, who I share an office with just got over a sinus infection/bronchitis that turned into mild pnuemonia. There is so much going around, it seems to be impossible to avoid! Hope you feel better soon!

I'm taking tylenol and mucinex.
Exactly what I have.  
Is the Mucinex working?

Re: anyone have this?
I had it in January. It lasted 3 weeks for me too. It also left me with a nasal drip. 
I hope you feel better!

no, so I went back to the Robitussin. The Mucinex made me nuts..I was spinning like a top and couldn't sleep.
Then again all of this OTC stuff gives me stomach issues. Can't win.

Re: anyone have this?
Use the Neil Med Sinus rinse too! It will help clear those passageways

Re: anyone have this?
Crap this is exactly how I've been feeling.
I must have the ick.
A coworker of mine has been sick for days... I hope this doesn't last too long.
I mostly have a dull headache / sinus pressure and general ickiness.

Re: anyone have this?
I have this!
I felt icky all weekend, horrible headache with a lot of stuffiness Monday, stomach stuff Tuesday-Wednesday, and now just blah with headache and a little stuffiness. I also feel really run down (even though I've been getting a ton of sleep each night).
I'm so sad to hear this lasts three weeks!!!

Ugh, I guess my prospects of a great weekend aren't looking so hot. 
I'm leaving work in a minute... as soon as I can figure out the next train home. I can't take it much longer.
