I was sick for a whole month the last time I got it years back and still remember one Sunday night, I just had to sit up all night because I was fighting so hard to breathe. I honestly was working to take in each breath for two to three hours and too scared to lie down once that passed! It's not worth skipping a few days discomfort for the agony of two weeks to a month of the flu if you get a bad case that has any complications.
Now get yourself that flu shot, woman!  |
I will....I almost died....hospitalized for a week due to relpse...then finished up with home IV therapy for the double pneumonia that almost killed me....
Now, on TV tonight, they say if you are 65 or over, you need TWO doses....one now and a repeat in 6 weeks.....I need to repeat my pneumonia shot too....it has been 4 years.....
