Man, I got this bug a week ago, and I've never seen anything like it. I lost my voice 6 days ago (The kids are loving
it. Mary *was* loving it, until she discovered that she had to answer all of my phone calls!), with no sign of it
returning.

I've slept in my LazyBoy the last six nights, cuz my lungs fill up every 90 minutes or so when I lay down, sending me
into coughing fits that keep Mary up all night.

Flying has been completely out of the question.

At Mary's insistence, I'm actually going to see a doctor today. (Who, no doubt, will tell me to drink lots of fluids,
take aspirin, get lots of sleep, and charge me a hundred bucks...) According to friends in our school district, this
bug has been knocking people down in droves around here for the last month.

Anyone else infected, or is this an Iowa thing?

I have it, just getting over it, been going on for days (5?) and I was pretty much staying the same. Finally went to the
doctor yesterday and he prescribed Doxycycline Hyclate (antibiotic?) which is knocking it down quite well. I haven't
been sick like this ever as far as I can remember. Lotsa liquids, salt water gargle, sleep and eating and am feeling
better today....
