dianew Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Michelle -- I vote that you get a flu shot. I had THE flu just once (before cancer) and thought I was doing to die. I've had one every year since - as well as an occasional pneumonia shot - and have never had the flu since. I know there are people who can get really sick with a vaccine -- but it is rare and I think the bigger message is the fact that it's very rare to find someone whose ever had the flu who doesn't get a flu shot without fail. They do work - and especially if you have any underlying condition that could put you in the hospital with the flu - and obviously your asthma could do that. OK - enough lecture - but I care about you and want you to stay healthy! It's gotten colder here and they are calling for snow -- not on the valley floor but in the mountains -- more good news for skiiers. I got up feeling really lazy this morning and I need to get moving but I've managed to find one excuse after another. I have to pick up a patient at 10, and it's 9 now and I'm still in my bathrobe! I made my first trip to our new Trader Joe's yesterday. They do have a lot of interesting things. I found these really good 70 calorie chocolate covered ice cream cones - only problem - I ate four of them No more of those!! Have a good Tuesday all -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michellep Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Seems like I'm not the only chocolate lover here I too would have eaten four of them. Right now I have a big box of chocolate truffles in the kitchen. Every time I walk in there I can here them calling my name......here Michelle....over here Many people have said it's a good idea for the flu shot so I guess I'll get it taken care of this week. Don't really want to, but with my asthma I should. Weather here last night was in the teens....didn't like it so much this morning when I had to take the dog outside to potty He takes "forever" too! Gotta smell every blade of grass there is before he can find the perfect spot. Meantime I'm standing there freezing my butt off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
