I am lying on bed with a nasty flu,last night returning home from dojang I knew Ihad the flu,my troat burns me and a lot of snifing,however the worst still coming, I could not sleep because of a terrible headhache,my nose was constipated and could not breath.

I could not close my eyes all night so I reported the office I could not make it today so I stay in home. The truth to be told I am angry cause today Iam home wanting to go training and maybe tomorrow I wont go either and I dont wana miss a class,cause need to work on my stamina.

Never EVER train when your sick...I did that once and wound up being transported to the local ER...Give your body a chance to heal itself...
 
I had the H1N1 flu back in November, and, although I returned to training after a week or so, I am just now starting to feel "normal" (as normal as I get, anyway). No matter how quickly you seem to recover, it takes a toll on your stamina for a long while.

Sorry to hear you're feeling lousy, Manny, and I hope you recover quickly. Take care, and don't push yourself.
 
Thank you all, I fell a little better so I am back in the office, however the flu has not gone yet. I feel blue cause I want to train every day if possible to get back in shape I really need it for my second dan test next july.

Today i will not atend tkd dojang but I want to go tomorrow so I will try to ask sambunim not to push me so hard cause this flu.

I am taking medication.

Manny, you need to REST. Pushing yourself, be it work or training, will only prolong things. Plus, you run the risk of infecting others.

I am feeling ill too. It's not the flu but I have a sore throat, nasty cough, and just feel all around crappy. I am going to laze about all day today. I HATE being sick.

Take care of yourself so you can get back to training. :asian:
 
This is directed not specifically at Manny. It's more a public service comment for everyone.

Adults can be contagious for up to 5-7 days after showing symptoms from influenza. Be courteous when you are sick: Stay away from the dojang, no matter how much you want to be there. It does you no good to train when you are ill, and it definitely is not a service to others when sick people show up and expose them to the germs.
 
Manny, I hope you feel better soon. Stay away from training until you do. It won't help you get better.

I know how frustrating it is when you're sick & can't train. I've got a cold for the 2nd time in 6 weeks. It's no fun. I tend to really want to train a lot when I can't due to illness or injury.

Be well!
 
Get plenty of rest and you'll heal much sooner.

I'm pretending to be sick today. The rain is so bad here that I decided to stay home

That's called taking a "mental health" day and those are much needed too. :) Enjoy your day.
 
Stay home Manny and remember do not cough on any post you may get us sick....
 
I'm feeling a little better and think maybe next monday I could go training, wish me luck. God I really love TKD!
