Sounds just like a bad flu to me. I agree, however, we should get a "FREE PASS" on other ailments. Trouble is, the little bugs won't listen. I had my first cold 6 weeks ago after treatment and it was a lulu. I think that after 1 year and 2 months, I'm about 85%. I'm sure that Kenny doesn't have quite the ability to fight off bugs yet. The healing does take a long time and I think our resistance levels come back slowly just as our strength does. Hopefully, he recovers soon. if not, get him in for blood work to be sure there is nothing else going on. Whenever i had something strang, the first thing they did was a blood workup to rule out infections.
