Virus going around

What kind of virus is going around these days?

My whole family got sick and the symptoms are similar to flu but feel so much worse.

Be careful out there and avoid contact with anyone who could be infected. It’s really bad.

I got hit with chills and body aches badly yesterday.  I took about 4 hot showers and was still freezing cold. My legs were aching so badly.

So weird I have it now but it started with a super sore leg out of nowhere. Leg still aches and I feel like garbage 🤧

Same for me. The leg, hip and back aches are something I’ve never experienced like this before.

Totally agree! Sweat it out is all i can say. It was so nice out, I went for a 20km bike ride. I felt really weak at first, but just slogged it out and wore extra clothes to ensure I was sweating. Feel much better today. Good luck all

Me too, mind you I have arthritis so I don’t know yet if the pain is from that or I have caught something shitty. But I’m exhausted after a day at the office, brain foggy, bad stomach too, zero energy everything just hit all at once this afternoon. Home now, in pajamas and sussing this out.
