How often do you get sick?

[xSuperMario64x]

By sick I mean head colds, influenza, bronchitis, laryngitis, and other illnesses that you can catch from someone in general.

I'm asking because I recently thought about the last time I had a head cold, etc. and to be honest, it's been a really long time. It used to be only once a year but I think it's been well over a year since I last got sick. I've always had a really good immune system so I rarely ever get sick


(And for all of you who are sick atm bless your heart <333)

I rarely get sick. The last time I had anything was in November (which was a cold), but before that it was years ago.

 

[John Wick]

I get hayfever, so my eyes feel grainy and it feels like I have a cold a lot of the time.

i barely ever get sick, i was sick in december but i blame being on vacation with two sickies (my mom and my sister) and being in their vicinity the majority of the time lol.

I'm sick right now and I think the last time I had anything was around November, which is pretty normal for me. It's been a while since I've had the flu or anything more serious but I usually get a cold every few months.

 

[Bcat]

once/twice a year maybe. Just got over what I think was the flu

I rarely get sick. I was sick in December with a sinus infection, but I don’t know if that even counts. Before that I hadn’t been sick since I was much younger.

I seem to get sick fairly often. Usually around every month to every few months. I don't know why but at least it's never anything serious. Does get kind of irritating at times. Though there is a weirdly nice feeling when you lie in bed while fatigued from an illness. Sometimes I'll also feel very mild symptoms which may or may not develop into a full cold.

Just once in a while. Usually during late fall-early spring. Got a cold not too long ago but it was pretty mild so I've been pretty healthy as of recently.

I'm not sure because I also have allergies and hypoglycemia, sometimes I can't tell what makes me sick. I answered once a year but it might be less, I caught a cold a few weeks ago.

When I was going to school I was always sick, I caught everything, always missed several days of school. Same when I was working in a mall, I was serving hundred of customers every day and caught all their disease too, it's how I caught H1N1 and other flu, I even caught a disease that mostly affect babies under 6 months old, the doctor was laughing at me, it was the first time he was seeing something like this and called everybody to see and make fun of me, I think he was just relieved it wasn't serious after all. Then after a few years working with public, I stopped being sick and could spend a year without catching anything.

I noticed something though, my mom and brother who never get sick, are always super sick when they finally catch something, both had to be hospitalized once for something that just made me sick for 3 days without complication. While the flu pandemic 10 years ago, a lot of young and healthy people had to be hospitalized.

Not often. It depends on the environment as well. I remember getting sick all the time when I went to school as a kiddo. If anything I think I get sick in the summer time.

 

[Loriii]

Once or twice a year but lately, I've gotten sick twice in a span of a month. They're usually just cold/cough accompanied with fever.

 

[LadyDestani]

It depends on what you consider sick. I battle allergies and sinus problems all the time that can make me cough, sneeze, and just feel generally cruddy. But only counting times when I have a fever or upset stomach, I'd say I get sick a couple of times a year and usually nothing too serious.

 

[meggtheegg]

I get at least colds honestly once a month.

I have allergies and a bad immune system so I feel like Im always coming down with something at least minor

 

[dizzy bone]

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. I also get sick if I'm in a mall with the air con blasting but it's usually just a short cold or runny nose and nothing serious. I usually recover from colds really fast but once in a while I'll catch a cold while I'm under immense stress already and it just lasts forever.

 

[Noctis]

Once in a while. I used to get sick though oftenly but after being hospitalized once and was in IV I didn't get sick for 2+ years. Whenever someone is sick I try to get away from specially at work. They never cover their mouth when they cough or sneeze its just gross.

 

[Stella-Io]

I used to get sick when other people in the house brought home the sick (99% of the time it was my sister who brought it home from school ig). When one of us gets sick, the whole house gets sick.

But the most 2 or 3 times someone has gotten sick, I didn't catch it *knock on wood*. I rarely ever get sick on my own, I did get a sore throat for days on end from drinking from a water fountain at work, but I don't get sick, I only catch it from others.

 

[Snowesque]

About once every three years since I am indoors a lot. It will likely change once I work outside.

 

[cIementine]

i get a cold like twice a year and any other illness is just period pains and symptoms of that every month

 

[Romaki]

Once a year for the cold, I haven't had something serious in like three years or so.
