    yes, so you need to keep your immune system suppressed so that you dont drow but good enough so that you recover.

    its a balancing act that is helped by booze and sleep deprivation.

    Thats why teenagers and those in their 20's to early 30's are most at risk, as they have the strongest immune systems.

    Thanks for the explanations.

    I must be seriously safe. I don't fit that profile at all!

    **** I always thought I would be OK, being young, healthy and damn handsome. Maybe I'm just gonna stop sleeping.

    Didn't they say they're not sure about the cykoline storm thingy at the minute and the general advice is just to keep yourself well fluided and indoors? If it was me I wouldn't be trying to do anything to weaken my immune system just in case it causes complications.

    Get well soon :) just had to drop off some tamiflu for my cousin's daughter today as she's not allowed to leave the house. (and she can't leave her daughter on her own because she's only 7)

    Yeah both me and the missus got that going on to be honest... mine have oddly been toilet dreams recently which is quite odd as when I wake up there's no need to make use of a toilet (and no I haven't just pissed myself.) and just other weird dreams too...

    Been having a lot of problems getting off to sleep too, end up having to stay up about 2 hours longer than Alice just to start to feel like I may nod off... Might try taking some Co-Codamol today...

    Don't take Tamiflu... Its useless.

    All it did was make me feel even worse, so I have up after the first pill.

    If your chest feels tight, just call the doctor now; better safe than sorry (or dead :p)

    If you cant sleep eat a turkey sandwich, a banana or have a glass of warm milk and honey. In turkey and bananas theres a chemical which relaxes your brain and makes you stop stressing so much.

    Or hit your head against the headboard about 7 times.. should do the trick too..

    I had Dairy Queen on the 26th and have been sick since then. I'm never going to have it again.

    What can I say, except Good Luck and Get Well Soon.

    And the internet would be poorer with the loss of all your bickering and petty fights :p
