Sort of. Just getting the tail end now after about 6 weeks and a course of antibiotics. But yeah, it’s shite. Hope you feel better soon.

Just about managed to shake it off, slight cough now, but it's been 4 sodding weeks.

i don't wanna hear this.... i need to believe...

look at this way: you can justify curry & hot toddies at any point

interfluidity.com•121 days ago

please add a dash of (ideally a dollop of) azithromycin while you take your hot toddies.

is this a “walking pneumonia” pandemic? just an “outbreak”? should we not use words like that, because they’ll take away our freedom to ensicken one another?

it's pretty standard winter lurgy. very dull.

leithmotive.bsky.social•121 days ago

Ahh yes, mild cough, mild sore throat, enough to be annoying, not enough to be ill. Also not covid. Three weeks in.

Just finished 10 days of antibiotics for tonsillitis and fever, which started right after 2 weeks of my toddler having rhinovirus and a throat infection. So all in all about a month of the household being sick and finally recovered. The positive, we’re all good for Xmas :)

Been ill for weeks now! It goes away (almost) and returns. Voice croakiness is precursor to the return
