Flu

I'm on day 4 of this horrible flu with little to no improvement. Headache, body aches, temp not coming down, sore throat, loss of voice.

At what point does it start to improve?

After 7 days I felt slightly better. Now 2 weeks after it started I feel ok. The flu this has been horrendous.
Rememer to take ibuprofen/paracetamol and fluids. Hot Ribena was my rescue.

It's a slow burner then 😩 I feel useless, I'm not used to not doing anything but physically cannot do a thing right now.
Will try the hot Ribena - thanks! Only positive is I've lost some weight, just not a healthy way!
