Who is ill today?

Had a viral infection last week. Lots of vomiting and diarrhoea and a strong fever. Still feel a bit weak now, my appetite hasn't fully recovered either.
 
I bet all the people with "flu" didn't/don't actually have the flu, just a rough cold. :p

I've got a cold at the moment. My weekend was spent in bed with it, and now I'm well enough to work but still poorly. I've not got any worries of infecting my colleagues, they all had it before I did :(

I eat about 8 a day, on average, last week I had the flu for the first time in 10 years. Diet goes some way towards keeping your immune system healthy, but it absolutely will not stop you getting the flu if conditions are right.

And there is a HUGE difference between cold and flu. Flu, generally will last upto 5+ days, you'll suffer from muscle aches, extreme tiredness, fever etc. A cold, even a "heavy" one, is quite mild in comparison.
 
Was fine yesterday, then I woke up today with aching legs, migraine, sore throat, hot/cold flushes... sigh :P
