I might have H1N1. I have a fever, chills, sweats, cough, sore throat, sour tummy, fatigue, aches and pains etc. I have a doctor's appointment in a little while to see what's wrong. I had to call out sick in the middle of a trip because of it. The way I feel is very similar to how I felt when I was going through heroin withdrawal. It's not at all pleasant. My flight from San Francisco to Portland last night was brutal. I was in a lot of pain and had to sit in a middle seat next to 2 guys who were not at all interested in being considerate with the available space. I am now quarantined in the basement until I get better.
This is what I get for talking shit. When H1N1 made it's debut I joked that I hoped I would get it so I would be on the cutting edge. Now that H1N1 is passé I didn't want it anymore. We'll see what the doctor says. I had a regular flu shot this year, but I didn't get the H1N1 vaccine. I just had a cold a couple of weeks ago, too.
At least I'll lose some weight.
UPDATE: It's not H1N1. It's some other unknown virus.
