dinny - you could have hijacked my thread - I would not be offended!!!!

It does sound like a beginning of something in my books (I usually feel achey and 'touchy' ie can't handle anyone touching me or hugging me etc)BUT nothing scary IMO.

Try to rest and drinks lots of water!

Hope you feel better soon xxxxxxxxx

Ah, just posted to you on MaskedPoster's thread! (And I hijacked it too sorry)

Dinny, I think you definitely have a bug - I would take some paracetamol and drink plenty of fluids, and keep an eye on your temp. Hope you feel better soon!

God, just thought, hope it's not mastitis...would I have sore boob by now if it was?

Be odd to have mastitis and only achy arms, no hardness or redness or soreness in boob at all. Are they totally ok? I've had viral things that start with aching in various places - back, legs, arms, or neck. TAke your temp, you!

MsPea · 12/10/2006 11:58

Yes, I think so. When I had mastitis the sore red boob definitely came before the feeling ill. I figure the inflammation starts in the boob- it only becomes systemic later. IMO it doesn't sound like you have it.

dinny · 12/10/2006 12:01

yes, boobs feel OK .

don't feel like I have gtemp - does that mean it's not a virus?

OP posts:
EliBoo · 12/10/2006 12:03

Good, re boobs

Nope, doesn't mean its not a virus - I've got a nasty cough virus that I ahven't had a temp with at all. But am totally wiped out. Adults often get lower temps or none at all - my sister had pneumonia without one!

dinny · 12/10/2006 12:13
