Does anyone else feel frustrated resting when got the lurgy?!

[C1239]

Came down with a heavy cold at the end of the week, kept pretty busy yesterday but feel I need to rest up today to try and shake it off… but I feel bored and bad for sitting down doing nothing! Is anyone the same when they have to rest up?!

I'm so bad at it! I get palpitations and feel SO unrelaxed!

The only way is to watch really gripping telly, and also to try to have a nap after a carb-heavy lunch.

Hope you feel better soon. One of my children has a streaming cold and cough today so it's only a matter of time before I'm in your position.

Resting up won't shake a cold off I'm afraid but I know what you mean!

If resting makes me bored and restless, I usually take that as a sign I don't need to do it.

Or, I got and do something small and then rest afterwards if it makes me tired.

Hope you feel better soon OP.
