    From the link:

    But that section of the article is talking about recovery, not during the flu. In fact the whole article can be summed up by saying if your flu is anything other than a light dose, don't exercise.

    Is it not acceptable to say you have an illness when there are iller people in the world? Im not saying there isn't, I'm only talking about my own case


    Seriously.

    There!!!8217;s been some amazing replies in this thread from people who have conditions much worse than yours and you don!!!8217;t seem to be able to acknowledge them. Huge thumbs up, in particular, to @suki1964. But all you want to do is whine about yourself

    On the off chance that you are in a relationship then I can see why she would want to kill you off. Not for the money - but for the peace.

    Oral steroids [...] less ability to fight infection or cancers. They aren't given lightly
    Steroids are also used to treat cancers - they can boost the efficacy of chemo drugs.

    Steroids are not the only drugs that effect the liver, many of us have to take drugs that have side effects, the liver being hammered is par the course for many drugs
    As I understand it, all drugs are either broken down by the liver, or the kidneys - so any medication will potentially damage the appropriate organ, even a paracetamol for a headache. So the OP is by no means unique.

    I hate to break it to you but you!!!8217;re not on steroids and you definitely didn!!!8217;t have flu. Flu + cyclo is potentially lethal, unless you!!!8217;re only on the eye drops.

    Unsure if trolling or neuro a-typical but exhausting to try and have a real conversation with.
