Diagnose me MNers!

For the past week I've been feeling really crappy - dizzy, nauseous, lighteaded and utterly shattered. Deffo not pregnant. What could it be?

Could be anything. That's why GPs exist.

Go and see yours.

the flu

LucyLasticBand · 18/02/2014 08:21

or middle ear infection?

Elfina · 18/02/2014 08:47

I feel breathless at times, too. I will go to the GP if it sounds like I need to, but I'm just about functional enough to come to work (and I really don't have the time to take off to see the GP unless its serious!) Hmm, can you have a middle ear infection with no ear pain?

Elfina · 20/02/2014 16:55

WowserBowser · 20/02/2014 17:00

I was going to say amaemia as that's exactly how i felt when i had it whilst pregnant

Take a good quality liquid iron supplement rather than tablets - absorbed better and gentler on your stomach. Take with vitamin C to help with the absorption.
