How To Beat The Flu (not medically proven)

I thought I was fine. On Thursday, I went to the gym and did an extreme workout. Well it was extreme to me, for others it may be just a normal workout. I stepped on a stairmaster and climbed stairs for thirty minutes. I then joined the tae bo class (which lasted for an hour). Punching and kicking, punching and kicking, a really great way to relieve stress. After the tae bo class I used some of the weight machines. I felt so good that I stopped and got a burger on the way home (completely eradicated everything I did at the gym).

After eating the grease and taking a shower, I proceeded to do some practice questions on-line (USMLE World is the way to go and Kaplan q-bank too)!!! When I finished one set, I felt a little queasy. I thought it was the burger. Anyhoo, Scrubs was going to be on, so I put the laptop into hibernate and tuned into NBC. I'm a Grey's fan too, so thank goodness they repeat on Friday nights. After Scrubs, I got up to check the explanations/answers on-line. I felt a little dizzy, but again attributed the nausea to the burger (what the heck do they put in those things). And I felt a little cold. So I threw on a sweatshirt and walked back to my laptop. And then like a ton of bricks all the symptoms hit me--congestion, fever, and cough. What wooodwork did this crawl out from?

So I did what any normal guy would do, I called a chick and whined about not feeling good. The more I whined, the worse it got. She promised to send me a care package (pretty cool huh?). Or for those who you have read my blog before, the chick was my friend Mulan!! You know the chick that I watch television while chit-chatting on the phone with!! Anyway, I went to bed early and still woke up with the icky feeling.

But I decided in my head that I wasn't going to be sick. So I took a shower, fired up the computer and proceed to act like I wasn't. As the day passed, I still felt congested and a little woozy, but not as bad as that witching hour the night before. I went out to dinner with my aunt and uncle and did some more studying.

Saturday came and I still refused to give in, so I did my usual errands and studied with my classmate Maria. Sunday came and "trashed me out again"!! But my Godchild Isabella wanted to go ice skating (her dad is one of my classmates and he was off to Illinois for a medical review) and so I volunteered to take her. Again, fought the sickness.

I think the cure is to act like you don't have the flu, and you ultimately won't be!!

I feel fine again today.

After edit:
P.S. I don't recommend this to anyone!! It just works for me. Seriously folks, if you are feeling ill--please see your physician. Sheesh!
