Influenza A

Just a heads up didn't get a flu shot this year and have contracted Influenza A - bad mistake. 3 days of aches pains and 39 degree temps and feel like absolute rubbish with no sign of it letting up yet. If you haven't had it and your not an anti vaxer go get a shot .
It will last for 5/6 days and the flu shot doesn't work go have a read up on how they make it they have more luck picking the winning lotto numbers then making a vaccine for the flu

It's like picking a combination lock that has a sequence of 20.000 numbers that every 12 hours

Flu A is the worst. Rest, fluids. I get the flu shot every year since I had Flu A in 2016

That is one nasty flu, it takes a long time to get over fully. RSV is also doing the rounds at the moment. As Suzie said, rest up & keep up the fluids, electrolytes help. I am another one that gets a flu shot every year & it seems to work well for me (touch wood). The flu shot isn’t total immunity but it helps & usually lessens the severity & duration of it, anything that can help is worth it in my opinion.
 
My recipe for any RSV is a follows:

Chicken Soup
Lemon Herbal Tea with honey
Brandy (Medicinal)

Drink them individually. Don't mix them together!

Geeze it's a good thing that Influenza A disappeared during COVID.

Meanwhile, I suggest being mindful of safe breathing whilst gardening during this current hayfever season. And always wear a mask when applying mulch etc.

Just got over it - started with just a cough but when it hit i slept for 15 hours straight only waking for toilet and panadol for the aches and pains. Finally cleared today after 4 days. Still feel a bit disoriented and head a bit fuzzy. Worst flu i have ever had.
