[MrsDoobaubles]

I am ill. Before now I have been able to boast that "I am hardly ever ill".
Last week my voice went and I was off work Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday I went in and I was more or less told to go home as I was coughing everywhere. I couldn't sleep at night for coughing. I really thought I was getting better but this week I am so congested I can't decide which is the worst part of this and it seems to be dragging on and on........ I can't breathe!

same as you but with asthma attackes thrown in still I have been up and about for two days now so hopefully on the mend

I'm getting worse. I started Barrocca this morning

Ds is coughing to such an extent he is throwing up. He missed DD's nativity play on Tuesday for preschoolers. DH & I are going tomorrow to watch and ds is going to his friends house as friend has got it as well, his mum thinks they may as well be ill together!!

I too, like MrsDoobaubles, have been boasting that I am hardly ever ill (silly me!) and of course, I now have a lovely chesty, mucousy cough (courtesy of ds). Ever time I cough, it feels like my head is going to split in two (I think this is because I said last week 'I never get headaches'!). Just for my sins, I have two dinners I have to go to this week as well.

I am blinkin teaching tomorrow, I sound so stoopid the stoodents are going to piss themselves laughing,

Sory to hear it SantClausFrau. Cuddle up with a hot water bottle.

I pulled a muscle in my right arm/shoulder whilst shopping last week and it's still not better. What a ridiculous injury!

I'm another one who foolishly was claiming my vitamins etc stopped me getting ill...now dd had temperature & cough over weekend & I've got it & feel so crap, whole body hurts, feel awful, & when I can sleep she's up coughing all night (with occasional sick thrown in). How long is it going to go on for...

I've had a horrible sick headache for 4 days, it's not a migraine but it's foul and no pills will shift it.
Re the vitamins - everytime I get enthusiastic and bung my kids a multivit, I can guarantee that they'll come down with something within a week.

That's my story Eowyn.
Whinge away SantaClausfrau, that's what we are here for
I have been trying to ring all morning to ring work and tell them but nobody is answering

Sounds hideous turquey. That's the problem with headaches, noone can see how bad they are. Atleast I sound awful

What's playmobile?

santaclausfrau - you have our permission to put on a video for DS and to cuddle up with a hot water bottle and chocolate.
But I would swap you playmobile for barbies anyday. I hate Barbie!!!!!
Hope you all feel better soon

Thanks for the sympathy MrsD
What a treat you have in store if you haven't encountered playmobil yet.

Is it bad?

Actually I quite like it but there's lots of it, quite small, spreads rapidly over a wide surface area and has a tendency to completely bggr the hoover if you're not careful

OOps. That would be bugger. Prudish clearly doesn't work for me.

turquey - you have completely mystified me

Cough cough sniffle sniffle atishoo....

Bless you MaryC.
Sorry MrsD, ignore my ramblings. I've had a few too many nurofen probably.

A couple of weeks ago I TOTALLY lost my voice. I mean TOTALLY!

I am now ill again. Feel like crap. achy, can't hear properly, can't breathe, coughing, weak, AND i'm still at work.

Want my bed now.
