I only had the actual flu one time which led to a serious case of pneumonia. This was in January 2000. I became deathly ill & it began a new path in life since I had to quit work etc. Never having had the flu before it took awhile before I realized how sick I was. I was running fevers & didnt know it etc. Went to work every day, but definitely shouldnt have now that I look back at it.
