Woke up on Thursday with no appetite then feel more and more tired throughout the day and kept sneezing. On friday morning i was feeling very rough with a runny nose and coughing then over the day started to feel exhausted even though i was lying down. Chesty cough got bad and throat very sore. Struggled to sleep even though exhausted. Fever but not sure how high as dont have a thermometre. Sometimes too hot sometimes too cold. This morning chest hurts from coughing, throat still sore, sruggle to even get out of bed.

Any ideas?

Virus/flu. It'll pass. Rest up, lots of water, paracetamol and keep warm Smile

It definitely sounds like flu - especially the exhaustion and going hot and cold.

It's probably pointless me telling you to rest because, when you have flu, you can't really do anything anyway. Smile

The thing to watch out for is when you feel slightly better in a day or two. Don't be tempted to overdo things and rush about catching up with shopping & chores. You need a good 2 weeks to get over flu properly.

Hope you feel better soon x
