Hey, our flu stories are almost identical except no ER for me. Best advise is to stay extra hydrated. Getting dehydrated is not fun! I still have chest congestion and couple on 3 rd week since starting flu symptoms.

Me too! Still coughing!!!!

I had the flu a week ago(7 weeks post op). This did not cause me to have any stomach issues or vomiting. I had high fever, dizziness, body aches, cough etc... I took a trip to the ER thinking it was a leak or something. They gave me 2 liters of IV Fluid and sent me on my way. They also gave me antibiotics for the cough and yucky looking stuff i was coughing up. I couldn't somach the antibiotics and stopped taking them.

I was in bed for about 5 days and lost 8 pounds. It was pretty miserable, but luckily it didn't happen right after surgery. I couldn't even imagine how that would feel. I was not able to drink much and didn't eat for 2 days. I finally was able to eat chicken Soup and get more fulids in. I was also pretty dehydrated.

I did receive the flu shot back in October, but think this was some other flu virus.

GNC will take them back with receipt.

Any product they sell that you don't like.

I decided to hold on to them, but thanks. Plus I have no idea where my receipt is.

I also forgot to add that the Total Lean shake in the bottle has:

170- calories

6g fat

6g Carbs

25g Protein

2g Sugar

Yes, I've tried the Total Lean bottled shakes (4pk) in the strawberry & Cream flavor and really liked them. Only problem was that I bought a ton, and my taste buds changed after surgery. They were still good, just wish I had bought some different flavors to mix-it up a little.

My nutritionist approved this shake as well.
