I have felt like I have the flu for the past week, but it is just the cold and dampness of the warmer weather and the rain. When I was first diagnosed with FM I had very bad boughts with bronchitis. I would sweat and freeze and ache all over. I went through all the pajamas I had in one day because I would take meds, fall asleep, wake up soaking wet with sweat and freezing like you do when you break a fever, less than 1/2 hour later i would be running a high fever again and start all over. The nurse at work said "that doesn't sound normal," DUH! I have the most awful time keeping a steady body temp. I am cold even in the summer unless it is 90 out I am cold. In the winter you can forget it I never get warm. As far as being sick alot; I have not been as sick in the winter over the past few years, I say it is because I quit getting a flu shot every year, and I will never get another one. I have not had a bad cold this winter, only a slight head cold. I believe you get sicker with FM, heck everything else we get is more intense than someone without FM.
