Man Colds

Truth: Z-packs do not work on viral infections such as a cold.

Because: Z-packs only work on bacterial infections but, oftentimes, bacterial infections accompany or follow viral infections due to the weakened immune system.

Therefore: Some doctors prescribe Z-packs if they suspect two infections, a nascent or potential bacterial infection with the viral infection. When this happens, it looks like the Z-pack cleared up the cold but it actually cleared (or prevented) up a second infection.

This is all correct, small technicality is that a Z-pack only works on gram positive bacteria but that’s getting a little too in depth
 
Ended up with Covid again this week. Holy **** that sucked waaaaaay more than the other times. Every day was a new symptom and they were all equally as ******.
 
stomach flu hit me on monday afternoon and spent monday night shivering and aching as i slept in the spare room because my wife basically wants me to go live in the barn until im over it.

Each day is one day closer to Christmas travels. Two concerts and three ball games all on the ISU campus this week, and I just try to ignore the hundreds of coughing, sneezing, throat-clearing people all around me. I will not get sick, I will not get sick.

I've been fighting the good fight this week. My oldest brought home Influenza A late last week and our whole family had it simultaneously all weekend. As per protocol, I seem to have gotten the worst of it. I was hard down for 4-5 days, low-grade fever that came and went at least 8 times, nasty cough, bad congestion. Probably the worst I've ever felt given the duration and severity of symptoms. Today is the first day where it doesn't hurt just to exist. Never thought I'd miss the quarantine days for even a moment, but it's starting to sound like a decent option as I think I might die if I have to go through this again anytime soon.

I dragged myself up off the floor far enough to reach the keyboard and say I see the light, it's real and it's bright. Protect yourself and your family, this **** is real... Peace out.

For Christmas, I got a sore throat, chills, and a headache, and my body feels like I just went 8 rounds with peak condition Mike Tyson. And I just saw Santa high-five Death as they passed each other in my yard.
