I got the crud the day after Thanksgiving, the coughing was the hardest thing to get rid of, I finally went to the Dr. and some of my problem was allergies. After I got an inhaler and nose mist, I finally got to feeling better. Hang in there.

I'm hoping he doesn't end up needing prednisone or breathing treatments to get through this. Now for the really fun part! Monday I started to not feel very well, and by this morning felt like I had been hit by a truck. Aching all over, headache,sore throat,congestion. I am hoping my daughter is lucky and bypasses this lovely illness, but right now it is not looking good! Thanks for letting me vent, I hope anyone else who has the crud at their house feels better soon!!

If it's not just a cough, but the ache and feeling hit by a truck thing - it's the flu. Not all flu is gastric!
Like they said, stay hydrated, treat any fever - not with aspirin, use tylenol or aleve instead, and ride it out.
Put a "no visiting" sign on your door until you guys are all better :(
