It is the beginning of the cold and flu season. Some years I get a pass, but not this year. I started getting sick a week ago...head congestion, then it went into my chest.
Funny story - last Saturday, not feeling well, I went to the medicine cabinet to take some Extra- Strength Tylenol for my head pain. Normally, I would take Ibuprofen, but couldn't take that because I was preparing for another endoscopy on Monday and it wasn't allowed. So I grabbed what I thought was the Extra-Strength Tylenol and took one pill.
During the next few hours, I started feeling even worse. I didn't have any energy at all and my mind seemed like it was in a fog. I felt pretty lethargic. I even ended up falling asleep on the couch, which isn't a normal thing for me to do during the day, but rest is good when you are ill, right? After several hours with no energy, it dawned on me that I had accidentally taken a Tylenol PM pill by mistake. No wonder I was so tired all day!!! Duh! I'm going to be more careful on what I ingest from now on.
