    Wife has it. Apparently its regressive so the dcotor says. You start feeling better then it gets worse again. Nasty bug. Have avoided so far.

    Aaaaaa...chooo!

    I was OK over Christmas but developed a bit of a throat and itchy, stuffy nose in the last couple of days. Doesn't seem to be getting any worse. Nothing like flu, in my case.

Didn't work on Thurs, Friday and today, cant afford more time off.

    Anyone had it, is a virus going around, how long have others had it, misses is coming down with it as well now ?
    I got away with it this xmas, but... for the previous three years I got hit repeatedly, so maybe my immune system is tougher this forth time around.

    I had the same symptoms as you last time, thought I'd got over it then bang, right back on my knees again. Really not pleasant and seems to knock you off balance for months if you get hit really hard by it.
