Speaking of pulmonary virus, I just saw this pop up in my fb newsfeed:
quote:

On the CDC website, it states: From mid-August to September 16, 2014, a total of 130 people from 12 states were confirmed to have respiratory illness caused by EV-D68. The 12 states are Alabama, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri, New York, Oklahoma, and Pennsylvania. The cases of EV-D68 infection were confirmed by the CDC or state public health laboratories that notified CDC.


quote:

EV-D68 presents with cold-like symptoms, such as fever, coughing, body aches and a runny nose. It may also cause breathing problems or wheezing.

Fml, how did I just see this?

I've had a really, really bad cough for about 2 months now. When it first started I was pretty sick and went to the doctor. A Z-pack got me through the fever and other symptoms but I've kept this sever cough since.

It's not uncommon for me to cough 10 times in a row until I'm having to hold back throwing up, and a few times I have. Days or nights when it's bad neither me nor my gf can sleep. Nose still runs often but the other symptoms are few and far between now. I'm constantly exhausted but I've just attributed that to my party/sleep habits right now. Anyways, this couch is absolutely infuriating and sometimes boarders on depressing. I cannot stop.

No body aches, no fever or runny nose.

Just a constant, deep cough and occasionally have congestion. Sounds like a coughing up a lung when it attacks.
