Default Sick and tired of being sick and tired...

Ok, going on day 17 of this flu thing. My doc is up in arms because it's
really screwing with my BG levels, and I'm out of ideas for things to eat
that don't take any effort. ha ha.
Made a huge pot of soup, that's been used for both chicken & noodles and
tortilla, with the last bit of stock used for a spicy wonton soup to try to
clear my head. Most foods are not the least bit appealing, but I'm quickly
finding that eating nothing isn't any better.

This flu thing goes a little like this: In the morning, congestion, both
chest and sinus. Soon after, nausea and sinus draining. As if all of this
isn't fun enough, there's round the clock coughing (started last Thursday),
and fevers ranging from 101 to 105.8*f according to the aural thermometer.
Aching and chills too, oh joy! So, I'm sure any one of you can see how
cooking isn't a priority at the moment, yet take out doesn't appeal either.
My husband cooked for a few days, but now he's got it too. Any ideas?? The
stomach upset rules out alot of things, but any ideas are welcome.

Yours humbly and with thanks,
