Since I've been exiled to my bed and have been here for over 24 hours I feel like posting some of the silly things I have been watching.
( I felt like sharing a lot...at least I am not sharing germs! )

How did I get sick when I am on antibiotics? - Antibiotics only target bacteria, so it's just as likely you will get a viral infection while taking antibiotics as when you're not. They even make some infections more likely, if the area of your body the new infection is in is normally colonized by (and therefore "protected" by) "good" bacteria. Make sense?

Feel better!! *hugs*

It does. I was hoping you would explain it. Thanks Megs!

Good! It's always fun in the land of microbiology - bacteria and viruses and fungus, oh my! =)

Dude, I was going to answer this, but you obviously did it way better than I would have, which I was expecting. Go health!
