Is there a weird bug going around ?!

For a week now I’ve been feeling out of sorts on and off, really tired, a bit spaced out, like I’m coming down with something but a cold doesn’t appear, feeling a bit sick then it goes. Just wondered if there’s any weird bugs going around?! I had my jab nearly two weeks ago and I felt odd a day or two after that then it went but then I started to feel like this later that week. My partner is also feeling the same and he had his vaccine 4-5 weeks ago which makes me think it isn’t jab related so must be a strange bug?! It’s annoying as I think I feel better then it comes back again!

Did you find anything helped the spaced out feeling go away?!

No, I still have it to a degree but definitely not as much and I’m thankful for that! My job is quite full on and distracting and so for most of Monday (I had had the previous week off) I was distracted but found I was coping. I got home and felt very tired and spacey and like I had an oncoming illness again. Took painkillers went to bad and thankfully didn’t wake up feeling like it today. I’d say I’m about 90% normal now and I can live with that having felt well under 50 recently!

I am sitting here in the East of England with a sore throat, definitely something peculiar doing the rounds, nothing like this has ever happened before. 🧐

Did this get better, OP? Have been having same thing for 2 weeks now and off work as it’s so debilitating. Am also 24 weeks pregnant and haven’t had jab so know it’s not that - also had negative COVID test.

We need to start getting colds and flus to keep the resistance up again otherwise we are done for.

Yes it got better for me, still not sure if it was reaction to second vaccine or a bug!
