Hi , iv been feeling a bit fluy on and off for few days was like this few weeks ago ,then it seem to go , then looking back around xmas i had it to Hmm , not bad enough to take me to bed , still carried on as usual kids work etc but very tired , but wondered if a virus can last so long ?
iv had recent blood tests that showed i have low white blood count just slightly and am having a re rest in 2 weeks ,
i can feel it in my back mainly the kind of shivery feeling like you get with flu..

Sorry you are not feeling well.

A few people I know have had similar symptoms off and on for months. Some viruses can hang around for ages because you can only treat the symptoms of a virus, not the cause (I think).

If I were you, I would wait till you get the blood test results before worrying too much. Annoying but hopefully nothing too serious.

Hope you feel better soon.
