I'm feeling the onset of a cold so I've been loading up on vitamin C, zinc, and tea.  I don't get sick very often, though.  I haven't had anything worse than a minor cold since March 2007.

How about you?

I've been in a continuing state of semi-sickness for quite a while.

Only around spring or fall when the seasons are in transition to either summer or winter.

Very rarely.  I can't remember the last time I was truly sick.  Maybe it was October of 2009?

Well, I was sick last week. Before that, it had been AGES, maybe a couple years.

It depends on my degree of exposure to others. I can get sick up to four times a year or not at all.

I rarely get sick.

But now I probably will be.

I currently have glandular fever, so feel like I have a cold/flu 24/7 for the last 3 months, and probably for the next 2 months...

Otherwise I don't get sick that often, but I can get the flu once or twice a year.

I get migraines, but they're a genetic gift...

Not often. About 2-3 times and it's never major. I have a fairly minor cold about a week or so ago. I suspect BushOK would panic if he had it.

I rarely get sick.  I'd gone from October 2008 (shingles) until this January (I got sick and lost my voice), and now I'm sick with bronchitis... so, it's usually very rare, but this winter hasn't been so great.

Having kids in the house that go to a couple of different schools it's hard to avoid the occasional bug, but usually they are pretty minor and I can work through it.  Every few years we get something a little more serious running through the house, but for the most part, we're a hardy bunch.

Not really.  I get sick usually in September and April and maybe once in between.  I am very fortunate, I have not been sick at all this fall/winter season except for a few sniffles occasionally, and I didn't get my flu shot.  I am sitting at a wooden desk right now, and I am knocking on it!!  My last cold was an itty bitty one last April, but I really haven't been really sick since the H1N1 the week after Halloween 2009.

Post college, I have had the flu a couple of times, and maybe 10 colds. I don't do sick. Part of it may be my psoriasis. That is caused by an overactive immune system. I may have bionic white blood cells or something. Smiley

Move to Laguna Niguel. Do it now. By the way, did I ever tell you that my house cleaning service is Polish? Tongue

So you want Kal to move to your town, clean your toilets, and thereby avoid a cold?  Roll Eyes

I haven't thought that far ahead. How is he at carpentry?  You should see the piece of furniture I had built per my design to store and secure my pot, and associated paraphernalia. Maybe I will post a pic of it someday.  Smiley

Usually once per year. I've already been sick twice this year, though.

Rarely, but I think it's been happening a bit more frequently the last couple of years.
