laura_seabrook | Probably the flu...

While I was shopping at Glendale tonight I bumped into a friend who had thus thing last week. The symptoms are: dull ache in the chest; puffy eyes; runny nose; really emotional. Got'em all.

Earlier today I bought a big container of "Garlic + C & Horseradish" tablets. Bi-Lo had this for $25 for a container of 200 tablets, which seemed like a good deal. I got them, as Liz (who annually had chest infections) recommended doing so, as they relieve the symptoms a great deal. Only taken one so far, but it has all the stuff I like to eat anyway.

While I was in Bi-Lo, I also bought bottles of Musashi SLM and Musashi Growling Dog. I just wanted a "pick-me-up" though I have to admit I bought the "Growing Dog" because of the illustration on the bottle! Came in handy when I went shopping at Glendale, as I felt really low in energy. They had Growling Dog candy bars as well, but I thought I'd just try one thing at a time.

Even so, I also arranged to see my GP. I was going to do this anyway, after collapsing in America. Only appointment I could get was next Monday at 4:45pm. That might be awkward as miss_judith was going to drop off Tyler (spencerkaiden's dog) that afternoon before they go away on a short holiday. Ah well, I'm sure it'll be sorted out.
