Bleh. Looks like I finally caught the flu. It’s been going around the office for a while, but just last night I finally came down with something. After exercising I was coughing alot. This morning I woke up feeling pretty bad, but without a fever. And now I’ve got a fever, chest pain, and headache.

Unusually for me, I went to see the doctor today right after falling ill (usually I wait until I’ve had a 105 degree fever for a week or so) and he said it’s too early to tell whether it’s the flu, some other virus, or some bacterial infection.

So to cover my bases, I’m taking a veritable cocktail of medicines:

• azithromycin
• tamiflu
• promethazine – codeine

This should stop my cough, kill the flu (if I have it), and kill any bacterial infection I may have. Let’s see if it works!
