Headache started at 10 this morning, i often get a headache if i have had a really bad nights sleep but one dose of painkillers sorts it. I took some paracetamol, four hours later still in pain and feeling dizzy with it so took ibuprofen, then took more parectamol amn ho0ur ago. I went to bed, couldn't sleep, neck started aching, feel really sick, slightest move of my head makes me dizzy.

I have been wondering for a while if i was diabetic as constantly tired, thirsty and weeing a lot (although always wee a lot but this was even more) and as my DD has sugar problems i ahve some sticks to test her wee with. So i tested my urine a fe days ago and there was 2pluses blood, 2 of leukocyte and trace of protein, but i have nearly always ahd blood in my urine so didn't think anything of this and i often get thrush which can cause leucocytes.

Anyway, just rang nhs direct they told me to rest, apply cold compresses, eat light meals and drink every hour. I just tested my urine again and this time there are 2 pluses protein, 2 leokocytes,and also 2 pluses haemoglobin and 1 plus bilirubin

Any ideas?

Sounds like a UTI/infection. Call them back and get seen by the out of hours or go to A&E, they will be quiet until midnight so it'll give them something to do.

Hope you are OK.
