You and Hooli must have had the same thing. He hasn't hiked in a month. Did you have a sinus infection to go with it? I think that was his big problem. _________________ ;o)> |

Nighthiker encountered this as well. I t was like a two weeks with a jug of old hammerhead. Nasty sinus infection and sore thorat. When I visted the dr in Mesa I got dizzy and sick. After seeing the dr. I just went out in the parking lot and sat in a lawn chair for several hours. I am still a liitle week though I have been out and about the past week. I had some good days and wen lout hiking and riding but it wiped me out. I am planning on getting out on sat for a hike. |

Flu shot won't stop a sinus infection.
Wimps! All of you! I've had my sinus infection for 2 months! I get them ALL THE TIME (meaning I probably have 4 months out of the year when I DON'T have them). I suppose you could say I'm used to them.
I'm just kidding - they suck. I hate them, but I have learned to live with them - I wouldn't be able to do anything otherwise. _________________ "Only small minds want always to be right."

Ah, no - but it will stop the flu!
I always get my flu shot, and it always works! Unless you're a needle-phobic fraidy cat, I can't understand why anyone would not get one! |

I LIVE with sinus infections.When I see the green/brown air and I can barely see Papago Buttes and Camelback Mt., ( 2-3 mi.distance), from my balcony, I can't EVEN think of going for a local hike,or will end up with more antibiotics.I could be the pollution/particulate monitor for the area! Just stand me out on the corner and you'll know how bad it is!! ( However,I do Not get the flu + have never had a flu shot!-I may get one funky day,but that's it!) |
