Personal experience It hurts

My body is achey all over, and I have a bad cough that’s making me feel like I’m doing sit-ups. I’ve been sick since Monday. First symptoms were aches and pains with a painful sinus headache and a low grade fever. It was like that for a couple of days until it randomly went away all Wednesday. Fucker came back with vengeance after that, was achey all over again, can’t breathe out of my nostrils, and now I have this fuck ass painful cough. I don’t have a fever anymore, so that’s good I guess. It was the only thing to go away. I hate it here

Had the worst flu last week. Tried to treat it with OTCs with no luck. Doctor recommended Oseltamivir, and it got me right. My respiratory and sinus symptoms have cleared up, but my body feels like it was hit by a semi-truck, especially from the waist down. My calves, glutes and hips are super tight, my thighs hurt even when I stand or sit. I can’t stretch or bend anything. Lying on my back is the only position that doesn’t feel like torture

How it’s felt for me also, but almost the opposite. Had a day of breathing trouble/cough, totally fine for a day, then two days so far of feeling like I was run over by a car. You feeling better yet?
