Doesn't sound like fun, that's for sure. I hope you get better soon. However, it could have been worse. I, for one, am just getting over pneumonia, which followed on the heels of a respiratory infection, and a cold too. I am finally allowed to go on short rides.
I was sick for 1/2 of January, all of February and in early March the doc said "ease into it in mid-March". Yuck, what a royal pain in the sit-bones.*
