Swine flu panic sets in.

I actually don't feel too badly. I imagine I may get a ride in on Saturday. I hope. I was supposed to work this weekend, but the Dr. said to finish the tamiflu before going back to work. I am feeling more hopeful that I will at least be functional next weekend.
Thanks everyone for the well wishes!

Jeez, if I could get three weeks in bed and lose 10 lbs, bring it on .

That was a joke. KC, feel better soon. Hope the drugs do their job. Give yourself permission to skip the races and events and even to skip the spectating if you're not up to it. You have very justifiable grounds. Don't get panicky, it's not helpful to your immune system.

I plan on getting vaccinated as soon as the vaccine becomes available here.

Glad you're starting to turn around. Drugs can be wonderful things, sometimes.

Definitely rest, and if you do feel up to doing a little something outside, make it very short and easy - and IMO, if you're the kind of person who can't go out without hammering (BTDT ), just stay inside. There was just this posted, summarizing what we all pretty much knew about exertion and immunity.
