Feeling pretty dreadful since yesterday afternoon, not to the point of can’t use my phone, just everything is an effort, freezing cold and can’t warm up and also have a temperature. Everything hurts. Is it possible to have the flu without a cold? I had an eye infection at the weekend which is usually a precursor for me catching something. The only thing I am worried about is I have a scab that I keep knocking/picking (I know) and I’m worried I have got an infection but am too embarrassed to ask even my husband. The spot is on my backside so it’s nothing something I can see.
