Sick, Cold

2014-05-03 – 2014-05-08

Grade: 3

My throat was feeling scratchy for the past few days but it didn't feel like a full blown cold until Saturday. Aside from the scratchy throat other symptoms included a runny nose, headache, fever, loss of appetite. It got worse as Saturday progressed.

Something was obviously going around the office and I caught it. It probably didn't help that I pushed myself to get back to training, after the HVTC, as soon as possible. Lots of rest and eating right (soup, bread, applesauce, fruits, veggies, no beer, no sweets, no buttery spread) helped me to get over this cold.
