I also haven't had one in years. Usually I take esberitox ( a form of echinacae) and that knocks it out before it emerges.
This time didn't work. I'm not getting better, feel worse every day.
I don't think there is anything I can do except wait it out.

I hope it's not a long-lasting one.

feel better.
