I get a head cold once a year, rarely anything more serious than that. Except now. I've been home since Monday with the flu. I didn't get my shot this year, and I'm paying for it now.
 
I get sick two or three times a year, typically once or twice in Jan-March and once in Oct/Nov. The sucky thing is that sometimes it lasts up to three weeks :( I'm just finally about over a cold that started Jan 19.
 
I almost always feel ‘under the weather’ I seem to get a cold every few weeks, however I only get something more serious like the flu or tonsillitis around once a year
 
Once a year. Usually strep throat, but it goes away in like a week so its not too bad.
 
I get sick when the seasons or weather changes drastically. I live in the tropics so there aren't really 4 seasons but if it goes from really hot to really rainy and breezey all of the sudden, I tend to fall ill with a cold for a couple days.

My mom is the same way. Winters in Ohio are really crazy cause one day it'll be freezing outside, then for a few days it'll be 55F outside and suuuper windy, then it's rainy, then it's snowy and freezing again. I feel bad, seems like every time I talk to my mom she's sick cause the weather changes so much.
 
well, it really depends for me.

for the stomach flu, i haven't had it for about 2 years.

colds however, last time i had one was a few months ago.

lots of people have been getting sick lately, this flu season is ridiculous- thankfully my immune system seems to be doing it's job lmao

i actually have a really bad fear of throwing up, i've had it since 1st grade. really sucks ):
 
It feels like I'm sick every few months. I have a cold that comes with a runny nose and chest congestion that seems to keep returning. I have no idea why, but it makes me miserable. :(
 
I'd say between once in a while to every few months. I know that my last cold was somewhere around August when I was travelling and I haven't felt sick since then. I was actually shocked that I felt fine at Christmas as I'm known to always be ill around that time.

However, when I moved I got sick so often it was ridiculous. I'd have a cold nearly every month and constantly felt ill which was probably due to the change of environment.
 
Once in a while, but i've been suffering from hereditary hypertension since it was first detected in 2018 or 2019 i think
 
i don't get them as often now as i used to but every now and then, i'm sick. i'm more the type that gets symptoms very often but never actually develops a serious illness
 
I rarely get sick thankfully. I try to look after myself and stay healthy. Thank goodness I barely get the flu either.
 
i usually only get sick about twice a year; usually once during the winter and once during the summer
 
Sometimes, but fortunately not often (knock on wood).

If any of ya'll are sick and don't mind tea/hot drinks I have something perfect for that scratchy throat!

:blush:Chamomile tea
:blush:2 teaspoons honey
:blush:1 cap of apple cider vinegar
:blush:Pinch of cinnamon

It works wonders on a sore throat and it taste really good too! <3
