Sue Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 No definitely not dengue fever, my ex had that in Malaysia following a dodgy mosquito net in some vile hotel in a city in Sumatra (country dropping) whose name escapes me but where I never want to go again, grammar, and was very much iller than this!I'm not worried about any of it, just interested to know whether anybody had had the sore eyes as part of the other bug.But thanks all :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6449-anyone-else-in-ed-got-this-strange-bug/page/2/#findComment-206984 Share on other sites More sharing options...
espelli Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 I'm really sorry if my posts were seen as scaremongering. I did not intend them to be that at all.

Mellors Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Yes, had it last Saturday/Sunday.

EdieF Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Quote speak to a pharmacistI would never ask a pharmacist. They know a bit about drugs, but they can't diagnose.

EDmummy Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 True EdieF pharmacists cannot diagnose but they often are the first people to notice when a number of people in an area have the same symptoms and how the local doctors are treating the symptoms.

Sue Posted May 30, 2009 Author Share Posted May 30, 2009 Oh no, just heard I gave it to granddaughter 1, causing her mum and dad to have to spend two days reading endless books to her and watching reruns of Charlie and Lola :-$ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6449-anyone-else-in-ed-got-this-strange-bug/page/2/#findComment-207468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TarahC Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Yep, been off with it today, very hot, headache, sore tummy, sicky feeling, and throbbing painful eyes... feeling better after a day in bed with curtains drawn (and cat on my feet!). Got to go to work tomorrow as I'm a temp and every hour I count how much it's costing me!

Sue Posted June 1, 2009 Author Share Posted June 1, 2009 Hey get well soon.I had to miss my first Goose gig ever on Friday night, but sod's law by Saturday I was fine.Seems to have hit everybody a bit differently, my daughter reckons she only had it for an hour :)) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6449-anyone-else-in-ed-got-this-strange-bug/page/2/#findComment-208042 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenk Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Has anyone else been ill with anything recently? I had a bit of hayfever the other day, but it seems to have gone now. Goose Green area.

KalamityKel Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Day 5 and tummy is still grumbling and cramping :-| glad there's this thread - thought there was something not quite right with me! ::oHayfever is not so much an illness lenk. Allergies are terrible but we learn to live with it (with a bag full of all sorts of concoctions to fight the invasion of irritants) *sighs* Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6449-anyone-else-in-ed-got-this-strange-bug/page/2/#findComment-208080 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sue Posted June 3, 2009 Author Share Posted June 3, 2009 Cassius Wrote:-------------------------------------------------------> How long does it last - this is my third day of> cramping and slight fever?xxxxxxxSeems to be very variable in both intensity and duration.Don't understand those who can't see the point of this thread - I thought I had food poisoning when it started, then I thought I might have something else wrong with my eyes.It was comforting to find that other people had the same symptoms and it was all part of the bug.If you don't want to read the thread - erm, then don't. Same as I don't read the threads on the forum which are of no interest to me :)I don't post on them making rude remarks about why the thread is there and the characteristics of the people posting :)The forum would be pretty clogged up if everyone did that, innit :)) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6449-anyone-else-in-ed-got-this-strange-bug/page/2/#findComment-208666 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandperson Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I'm with you Sue. I thought I had food poisoning and with a little one in the house it was good to know it was a bug rather than having to clear out my whole fridge etc.I'm glad it's not Dengue fever though ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/6449-anyone-else-in-ed-got-this-strange-bug/page/2/#findComment-208667 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't actually think people 'spat tea at their screens', when I read that milk was pretty much frothing out of my nose.
