Flu 2
Today's post was just going to be a rant about how my family just doesn't give a damn about me. How little effort or concern was put in concerning the flu. But never mind.
Today I'm at about 60% so I'm not really sick anymore, but my body is still weakened from the battles soup diet it endured. I had to walk to my doctors s appointment today, I really wasn't feeling up for it but everyone was busy. My doctor basically told me I'm too late, that there's basically nothing to do now that it's over. *Sigh*
The flu normally lasts a week I was told, and my exercising likely irritated it along the the week. My body must have been fighting wicked hard. I have a high threshold of pain so those aches and pains that didn't quite feel right I had been feeling were red flags. The fact that Friday and Saturday were so unbearable tells me two things. 1, my body did an amazing job for almost a week exactly fighting it, it could have been like that all week. And 2, it could have been less if I had stopped working out. Probably.
It was lose-lose. Continue working out, and the flu peak hard at the end of the week devastating my mind and body. Or Quit while I was ahead one or two days in, probably feeling like a letdown. Waiting to let, unknowning to me, the flu, pass. Which..... it wouldn't, but maybe be less severe? Wait where was I going with this? actually I don't know if it was lose, lose but I'm glad it's near over
I don't know what I'll be doing about exercise this week, it feels great not feeling like I'm wearing an inflamed bodysuit. Still having bits of the shortness of breath.
