Linda and Janet
I don't know about where you are, but here you're allowed 2 bottles of cough syrup with codeine without a script per yr. All you have to do is ask the pharmacist. Sounds like you both have that really nasty strain that can take forever to get over, especially the fatigue.
So far I've been lucky. (and I just knocked on wood) I've not really been sick this season. Well, with viruses anyway. It's kicking the begebies out of our schools down here. One system shut down for several days due to poor attendence from both teachers and students.
Poor Darrin's been sick more than well between viruses and an ear infection that so far antibiotics won't kill.
You guys take care of yourselves.
Hugs
