I wish people would stop coming in to work sick. Coming in and then staying two feet away from everybody is not a solution. Do NOT come in and then say "Stay back, I'm sick so I want to stay away from you" Unless you refrain from touching ANYTHING that anybody else will have to touch, you are spreading your germs. ARG! We have sick days for a reason people!!!!

I have had a headache for several days. Nothing makes it go away for any extended period of time: caffeine, ibuprofen, Aleve, bananas, water, etc.

My throat is so sore, it feels like someone has their hand around it! It hurts to swallow on the left side. I tried cough drops, warm tea with honey and even vitamin C, but nothing's working! Any remedies?

Chloraseptic spray? It tastes NASTY but it will numb the "feels like I'm swallowing razor blades" feeling. If that doesn't work - bourbon.

Nooo I was doing so well but overdid it this week. I should have just stayed home on Tuesday. My ears and throat are are fire and I'm coughing a little. If I don't drastically improve by tomorrow, I'm going to the doctor's.

I am STILL sick! I missed work Friday, Monday, Tuesday and today. I went to the doctor yesterday and they took me off Augmentin and put me on Levaquin. It scares me to be using such a strong drug but thank goodness I'm finally feeling better!

Augmentin makes me ill beyond belief, but Levaquin worked fine.

I have the worst sinus infection I've ever had. It hurts like hell and I'm pretty miserable.

I'm really sorry. I hate sinus infections.

Do you have antibiotics?

Just keep pushing the Sudafed. I also find that steam helps me clear things out in there, too.

Today's my first day on antibiotics so hopefully I'll be feeling relief soon.

I tried steam and it worked so well! In my misery, I totally forgot about that...thanks for the reminder!

Now it's my turn for sinus fun. And by fun I mean torture.

This virus has moved down from my head into my chest. You know you're sick when what you're blowing out and what you're coughing up are both a color that doesn't occur in nature.

And to top it I have laryngitis.

All this fun comes when I'm traveling for work and covering 12-hour night shifts.

I just want to go home and sleep.
