Thread Name: BS: I'm sick
Subject: RE: BS: I'm sick
I'm sick too! But it's only a cold this time, first one I've had in years. I like to treat myself to a hot lemonade with Bourbon. Since Bardstown is the Bourbon capital of the world, we have a cabinet full of samples. Then I eat cherry cough drops like candy. There was also a nice nap today.

Two weeks ago I had a...what I call a virus...and Hubby laughs at my terminology because I always use that term for fever/chills/intestinal woes. This stupid thing lasted with fever for three days, so it must not have been the flu. But my problem the last few years has been fluid on my ears which causes vertigo. If you've never had it, it's like severe sea sickness. Antihistamines didn't help much this time. I live near the allergy capital of the world (Louisville, KY for spring allergies), and I suspect it's high on the list for fall allergies. I've been lucky all my life to not have the allergy problems that nearly half my friends have.
