    I pretty much am the same way. I also have mild asthma, not on any regular meds because I have been pretty much symptom free for years, except when I get sick. I just do not get a "cold." It always ends up in my chest. I've had years of being sick from November to February, even in AZ. Then miraculously, when I stopped teaching this stopped. Except for last March, when I was subbing and all the kids had some horrible virus/flu. After I had been working about a month, I thought I had been lucky enough to beat it, but I got horribly sick with a 102 temp., a real cold, and wheezing. I had to miss 2 days of work and they had to get a sub for the sub.
    I'm certainly still around people, but just not lots of snotty nosed teens!

    Gahhh.

    My head cold was considerably worse today. I had to take the day off from work and hang out semi comatose, coughing & wheezing. Yeah, it's gone into my chest. Crud.

    I honestly don't know if the short easy rides I did on Saturday & Sunday made any difference (the ride I did on Sunday was a lot shorter than I originally planned).

    But in the interests of full disclosure I thought I'd let ya's know.

    Nope, still sick

    It's been in my chest area since day 1 and I just can't seem to get rid of it!

    But I know I have to take it easy, because i've had it develop into a sinus infection/tonsilitis/bronchitis/pneumonia (not all at the same time!) before.

    Jobob and Fuji - sorry to hear you are both still under the weather, but since misery loves company, I figured I'd let you know that I am calling the doctor today - I think my cold has turned into bronchitis. Of course, I have no one to blame but myself for this...

    Hope everyone feels better soon.

    Hope you are all better!
    FWIW, you looked the picture of health on Saturday, SheFly. But, let's just say I have learned the lesson you are getting now...
