What the hell is wrong with me

[OatMilkLattes]

I have some sort of cold virus.

started with a sore throat all last week, really really painful. I thought that was going to be it!

Now it’s turned into a head cold with all the usual cold symptoms plus feeling so so tired and a very upset stomach. Everything is going straight through me!

I also feel really down. Not sure if it’s all connected but I just feel like shit. Anyone else?! Merry Christmas to us 😂

There's a nasty bug going around. Sounds like you've got it. Bad luck. Lots of rest and fluids.

This is exactly what I’ve had the past week. I think this is just seasonal flu, but I am no doctor. Good news is that it’s getting better on day 8…!

I've had the same, 2 weeks now. I was back in work this week but shouldn't have been really, felt bloody awful. Started with horrific sore throat and made its way down my body during the course of about a week, then cough, runny nose and fatigue now along with a slightly sore throat still. Grim.

All 4 of us here at various stages through it. Hitting at work as well. I'm on leave for a week but fully expect a call to come in and have offered to come in (boss is lovely and would just try to manage herself which really isn't do able) . Dh has prepared a lovely meal and activities but I don't think I'll manage it. Bless him, he's saying not to worry we'll just do it another day.

I've been feeling unwell for about 11 days. Started as a bad cold, then high temp after about a week. Still having high temps now. Dd2 is the same. Seems to be largely in the nose / sinuses / ears. Slight sore throat but nothing to write home about. I have a terrible stomach as well since the high temps, awful nausea but dd seems to have escaped that. I am exhausted as I don't feel like I can eat much. Every time my temp goes up I feel dreadful and feel like throwing up. Just want to feel healthy again. To add insult to injuryiI thought we were on the mend yesterday as no fever all day but it came back in the night for dd and this morning for me. :(

I am Mildly snotty , but I ache all over as if I’ve been run over by a herd of cows. My joints are so painful that standing g up is hard, and I can’t turn a door handle (or pour wine!). No idea what this is !
