What the hell is wrong with me?
So at Christmas I was travelling (hostelling) in Europe (big cities), a few flights etc. Never a recipe for good health.
I came back and had a general cough /throat respiratory illness, the usual. Developed joint aches and fatigue that has remained to now.
Visited the gp who thought I just had a horrible virus and told me to rest, paracetamol etc.
I also became quite breathless, only noticeable with exertion... I just thought I was unfit tbh.
But then I developed this weird lacey rash after showering... it’s on my thighs and inner lower arms.
I’ve just realised really, I’ve been so fatigued for 6months, the rash comes out every time I bathe (disappears totally after) .
And then now it seems to be all coming off my chest. Cough like whooping cough for a month, coughing up phlegm now (sorry tmi) and for the first time my chest seems to be clearing. Its been so gradual i’d barely noticed how ill I’ve felt. But I feel I’m getting better. But 6months what the hell is it?!
