Hello @acidyo, yes, a flu is so unpleasant because you feel awful even when you are doing nothing at all. Even normally enjoyable things like reading a book or watching a movie become hard when your head hurts so much you can barely concentrate. Fortunately, I am in good health and rarely get a severe flu (and I don't have health insurance either, so let's hope that I won't catch anything even worse!).
I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery! 😊
