Ill, ill, ill....anyone else?

Me too, flu like cough with fever, nausia and general feeling of despair!

I'm 6 months pregnant & went to the docs twice as I was convinced I was more ill but both docs told me to take paracetemol, just started this & am actually feeling better today.

Doesn't help that we are living in one room due to builder take over & have had no bathroom on & off for a couple of weeks & haven't had a kitchen for 8 weeks!!!

So so so ill though, I feel your pain snowboarder, I left the house today for almost the first time in 2 weeks.

On top of all of that I've managed to sprain/pull an intercostal muscle so am in agony over that too!

Urgh stuff the snow & Christmas!

Hope everyone takes it easy & rests up well... Keep going on the lemon & honey & paracetemol

Happy Christmas!

Yip, we've all had it. Colds most of Dec then flu Christmas week. Exhausted, too weak to turn over in bed sort of level. then the day of depression and, when sleeping, very black nightmares about the children. I hope they didn't get that bit as well but who knows.

Better now! - weirdly, the GP diagnosed flu but gave us antibiotics (!)

Get well everyone reading this - do drink lots of water and keep warm to help your body fight it.

Snowboarder and other flu victims, are you feeling a bit better yet?

Up and running again mostly, but still snotty and coughy. Not nice!

Now if I could just get a good nights sleep. I actually don't think I am ever going to sleep 'through the night' again!!
