Yes that's true. I have for some reason really weak immune system, and always when it get's really rainy, wet and cold I get a flu. stare I eat healthy, I eat these multi-vitamin tablets and it still doesn't help. Doctors aren't interested, becaus apparently 10 flu's a year is still considered normal, so my chronic flue isn't nothing unusual to them. But this is really annoying... I'm not able to taste or smell anything for about 85% of the year. confused But I have started to appreciate those 15% of the year when I do smell or taste. Funny how much you can miss something so everyday thing like ability to taste things.

Another down thing from the constant flue is the tiredness. I'm working at 60% of my capacity, but I'm getting by. I've become so used to this flue and tiredness that I doupt it's not affectin my life so much anymore. I have to get really, really, sick before I can't get up from bed in the morning. So in a way, this is building up my endurance and will power. To be honest, I don't even remember anymore what it's like to not to sneeze all the time or cough. Maby I should be more persistent with the doctors. rolleyes

I've also have wondered if this constant flu has something to do with stress. I know being stressed out lowers your immune system, so maby I'm just one of those persons who go through all the flue's that are in the air. Schools have been known to be excellent places to spread flu around. rolleyes And school assigments are also known to create stress among some people. I espesially worry too much about the school stuff. But then again, I'm supposed to get to work after this school so maby it's a good thing that I worry what grades I'm getting. I think I have babbled enough about my medical history for now... I think I'll grab a book, make my self a cup of tee and cover my self with blankets into the corner of my sofa.
