@hfrazey no need really, it's viral so the most they'll do is say "see me in two weeks if it's still bad"

already a hell of a lot better than I was though, so that's good

@troubleMoney true, flu is a virus, but bacterial infections after flu are where the danger lies....and you've been sick for a while...so if you find yourself going downhill, please see a doc OK? https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/01/100122002334.htm

@hfrazey oh yeah, if it starts getting worse I'll be going to see a doc, but so far it hasn't been anything out of the ordinary for the strains that are going around these parts

@troubleMoney ok good. sorry to be a pest, but I know someone whose husband died from a secondary bacterial infection because he was too stubborn to go to the doctor. I hope you keep feeling better.

@hfrazey don't worry about being a pest, I really appreciate the concern

I'm just moaning a bit 'cause this sucks

@troubleMoney oh it TOTALLY does!

@troubleMoney how are you feeling, I've been thinking about you, also where do your hedgies go in the winter I am worried about them too

@hfrazey I'm feeling a lot better thanks, little bit of lingering "bleh" but otherwise back to normal

hedgies are still hibernating away, they're due to wake up march/april-ish, we built them a load of little houses to sleep in and gave them plenty of straw to use as nesting material so they should be all nice and comfy

@troubleMoney ok I will try to stop worrying about all of you
