Have you ever tried singing when you have the flu? I came down with the flu bug two weeks ago and it has been tough. I sing with a choir so we are expected to blend. It is hard to blend in when you can’t really hear all cause your ears are ringing, you can’t breathe well because of a stuffy nose, and you might not hit the note because of all the coughing.
Some useful remedies:
