So far, it feels like it is just a cold. While it started with a pain in my upper respiratory system, it has largely settled in my throat and lower sinuses. With the coughing added in, my throat has not had a chance to heal.
Considering that I'm practicing with the children's choir tomorrow and we are performing on Sunday, I certainly hope that this clears up quickly. I've been using a combination of Emergen C Immune Plus, Zicam, and oil of oregano since I noticed the first symptom. I believe this has made this virus less potent and hopefully shorter lived.
At least I've mostly functional and not reduced to the pitfull state that the man-flu can bring.
