In NYC handling my biz!!!!
I've noticed that there are a lot of people sick with the same symptoms lately. Throat problems, congestion, coughing, etc. WTH is going on? I'm concerned because it just doesn't seem normal for everyone to have the same symptoms around the same time and for some odd reason, it's not easy to get rid of. I've been, literally, fighting my throat problems for months now. I had laryngitis back to back and have yet to get my normal voice back. My kids have complained about their throats hurting. I've taken them to the doctor just to make sure it isn't strep throat. My husband has complained about the same, and with him that's not normal at all. He hardly gets sick. So I'm really wondering what's in the air that's affecting us all today?
 
you know i have the same thing... my voice is still not back.. and its going on the second week...
 
u know nena u should really go to another doc and get a 2nd opinion. this dont' sound good :crap

FEEL BETTER EVERYONE!
 
I'm with you on this Betty...I'm over here with the same symptoms & the nurses at my job says it's "probably" allergies but I went home yesterday & took some allergy pills thinking they would help me but nope I still feel like shit today.
 
I know what you mean. I've lost my voice recently too. Not only that, but the fever comes and everything else. They say I had the flu, a stomach virus, etc. etc. etc. But soooo many people complaining about the same thing? People saying "its going around" just doesn't cut it.
 
yeah .. at times i dont even feel like eating bu tthen again im hungry.. the sypmtoms coem and go.. i get heated up and then its goes.. my voice sounds liek it getting better but no.. still goes away.. and i need it for work

Mmmhhhmmm I feel on that "it's going around" bullshit...I'm tired of hearing that. What exactly is "IT" anyway...LoL
 
you're not suppose to drink cold drinks with ice right?? if your voice is gone and your coughing??
 
Betty, it's the same with me & the itchy throat & then after a coughing spell my throat kills me...if it is allergies what should I take to help me?

That's the thing, allergy medicine isn't helping. I gargle with listerine, I suck on Halls and still have to the itch and cough. In the morning, I wake up with my throat just feeling yucky.

Hmmmmm........I don't know because I still do. :rolleyes
oh ok thanks... because im still doing it. and im taking every medicine there is and nothing seems to help...
 
Just reaching for straws...could this be the West Nile thing????? I heard in the average person that it just causes flu like symptoms and obviously the doctors wouldn't be testing everyone, they usually just go for the most obvious....I know personally, I'm slightly paranoid and live kinda close to Plum Island and I definately believe more goes on there than they let onto...
