Is that shit not impressive or what?? October-May is flu season and like clockwork, I get the Flu each and every October. And when I get the flu, it sometimes knocks me out for a week if not two weeks. I start hallucinating and shit and thinking that sweet death is right around the corner. And I never get the flu shot. But since early this year, I've been on a supplement kick taking all kinds of shit to improve my immune system. I probably pop 40-50 pills a day from multi's to mushrooms to probiotics, you name it. It all started this Saturday. I was at work and I started sneezing like crazy and felt that tickle in my sinuses. I woke up in the middle of the night early Sunday morning and felt like total shit. The coughing and the chest and lung pain began. I drank some tea and some OJ and laid in my living room all day watching football while intermittently sleeping throughout. So Sunday was technically Day 2 and the worst day. Every time I coughed, my head and throat hurt like crazy. I was moaning and crying like a little bitch. My whole body ached. I could barely walk. Only thing that would alleviate the pain was just curling up in ball in the shower with hot water to let the steam clear me out. Fast forward to Monday and I was already feeling energized with a slight cough, but just with a lot of mucus. Still had some pain, but the fever and chills were gone. Went for a walk to work up a sweat and sweat some of that nastiness out and it worked. Took another hot shower and just sat there for 30 mins. Drank nothing but OJ and tea all day.
Today is Tuesday and outside of the mucus and hoarse voice, I think it's safe to say the flu is gone. That's some impressive immunity for a guy my age. I'm impressed. I'm a hypochondriac and every time I get sick or feel a pain I think it's the worst, but here I am, proof that abstaining from drinking alcohol, drinking soda, doing drugs, and smoking cigarettes is a recipe for a healthy immune system.
