The flu

It would seem I have had Influenza A for a week or so, without knowing.   I thought flu was supposed to make you sicker than this, as I was guessing I had a cold type virus; but the very very wheezy left lung sounds when I would lie down at night is what made me check it out further.  

As I have aged, the one thing all head infections seem to cause me is huge throbbing pain in my forehead sinuses when I cough.   This happens regardless of whether my nose is blocked or feeling particularly congested.   And when I am not coughing, the forehead doesn't hurt.   I never used to get this a regular feature of colds or viruses, but I sure do now.

Anyway, I'm likely non infectious and over the worst of it, according to the doctor.
