I don't get sick-sick very often, but I get "cold-like" symptoms like 9 months of the year. Doctors are extremely confused. My white blood count is super wacky, sometimes it's good, sometimes it's low, but I don't have any of the usual diseases/conditions aligned with such a thing. Some of them think it's some kind of super weird mix of allergies + thyroid issues causing it, other ones are just "...I have literally no idea, but if you're not sick enough to be hospitalized, then uh... I'll just monitor it and wait and see?"

That said, I do get sick-sick literally every year around Christmas. It's like a curse. My family used to think it was because that's when kids got sick often during school, yet parents had them attend, anyway, since Christmas vacation was coming up, but the trend continued even past school.

The best doctor guess is that I had really bad pneumonia as a baby and almost died, and they think that fucked up my immune system in ways they can't really figure out.
