I have been completely wiped out since Saturday. I slept most of Sunday and Monday and am pretty tired today, but not feeling quite so grotty. The other symptoms are weird. Very sore roof of mouth like a burn from too hot liquid and weird tingling gums, terrible aching, painful joints and backache, sinus pain and eye pain, but no temperature and a huge appetite. I also seem to have an almost coldsore (it's there but seems to have gone through all the stages without errupting properly).
Can you have a generalised histamine response? I took an allevia and felt a bit better yesterday, the pain all over seems to have abated today. I just wish I knew what was going on. Is it a perfect storm of hormones (I often get a wipe-out day when I have to sleep for an afternoon), hayfever (worse than ever) and a cold sore (often have neuralgia in my face and feel rough from this) or have I got a virus or what? It's like flu, but without the flu symptoms iyswim.
I know no one can diagnose on Mumsnet, but it's all too nebulous for the GP (if I could get an appointment) and it's pretty debilitating to be out of action like this. Has anyone had anything similar?
