[grammar + vocabulary] serious cold + can't shake it off
Dear Users,
May I ask for your comments on the following sentence?
I've been suffering from a really serious cold for nearly a week now and I can't seem to shake it off.
1) Question: What would be the best replacement for a really serious part? 2) Question2: Is it necessary to use the personal pronoun I in the second part of the sentence? Would it be OK to say and can't seem to shake it off?
Thanks!
