Who's got this flu?

I'm ten days in to it and felt like I was recovering a bit but now it's a bit worse again. How long did people have it?

Me..... day 7 or 8 and no end in sight.

I haven't actually been bedridden so I'm not entirely sure its the flu proper but im feeling awful.

Cough and temperature have eased but I have zero appetite and zero energy. I am able to do the essentials (I actually WFH today) but everything is a monumental effort.

Cant imagine feeling well enough for Thursday at the moment.

I've had it..7 weeks in total

7 weeks! that's horrible. Hope you feel mostly better now? and that you are better for Thursday @Crunchymum

If anyone knows a way to make the cough go away let me know it's driving me bonkers. Also just feel tired and a bit low.
