What the bleeping bleep?

Ok, so my lungs seem to be mostly back to working order, I'm taking an iron supplement, so there goes the anemia...

Why do I have the sorest throat and ears in pain, runny nose, nausea, and dizziness?

Is this referred to as the flu?

This has not been my week...on the plus side, I feel just mildly better than I did at 5am this morning...which still means I want to be in bed watching movies and catnapping.
