Dr said ibuprofen adn calpol

fingers and toes crossed for ds1 quick recovery.

Aww bless him, I hope he feels better soon.

Yeah hope he is better soon. He sounds healthy and fit so should be a fast recovery

I had it in my 30's cod, following a strep infection, so bacterial rather than viral. Night-time was worse and getting up in the morning was agony. Keep his ibuprofen topped up.

ah thast a hood tip
he seemed VERY perky later on this evenign

How's he feeling Cod?

ta mate
still the same
not speaking
finds it hard to wwalk
gest dizzy
is eating a bit though

I have had this twice, once in my teens after a viral infection and once in my twenties after Human Parvo same as Hunkermunker. The first tie it took me about 3 weeks to get completely over it but the second time it was just a few days. I just rested a lot and had warm baths, couldn't really do a lot else to help tbh. Hope your lo is feeling better soon.

Oh no Cod, poor boy and you.

how long did the doc think it would last?

Oh I hope he gets better soon Cod. If it makes you feel any better dp and sil both had a weird bug a few weeks ago that gave them a temp, cough, headache then very painful joints. Sil took time off work and her's went after about 10 days dp as usual wouldn't take time of work and he didn't feel right for about 3-4 weeks. Lets hope it is just a virus.

KerryMum, I had the same as you.

Cod, I think he's not got it as badly as KM and I had it - I couldn't get out of bed without screaming and I am not a wuss when it comes to pain.

See how he is this week, but definitely get some blood tests if he's no better by Wed.
