Ok, going on day 17 of this flu thing. My doc is up in arms because it's really screwing with my BG levels, and I'm out of ideas for things to eat that don't take any effort. ha ha. Made a huge pot of soup, that's been used for both chicken & noodles and tortilla, with the last bit of stock used for a spicy wonton soup to try to clear my head. Most foods are not the least bit appealing, but I'm quickly finding that eating nothing isn't any better.
This flu thing goes a little like this: In the morning, congestion, both chest and sinus. Soon after, nausea and sinus draining. As if all of this isn't fun enough, there's round the clock coughing (started last Thursday), and fevers ranging from 101 to 105.8*f according to the aural thermometer. Aching and chills too, oh joy! So, I'm sure any one of you can see how cooking isn't a priority at the moment, yet take out doesn't appeal either. My husband cooked for a few days, but now he's got it too. Any ideas?? The stomach upset rules out alot of things, but any ideas are welcome.
Yours humbly and with thanks, kimberly...considering begging her mom to come to town to take care of her
Sick and tired of being sick and tired... 915Old family remedies: onion and garlic (fresh) simmered in clear broth. I prefer beef, but chicken is also fine. The preparation of the onions and garlic will help clear the sinus, the steam...
