dreamer, i shouldn't laugh, but i did get this fleeting image of cold viruses shouting to each other "run away! run away!" like in monty python.

Mood is tied to immune system function, isn't it? I certainly get more depressed if I get the flu. Maybe you've been feeling better, and that's feeding back into your general state of health.

just a very unscientific thot....
