I was so looking forward to time off work over Easter but have been feeling terrible since Friday evening. I had a terribly sore throat overnight and now just feeling achy all over and like I can hardly stand up. Honestly feel like I am 100 years old…. 😟

Same here. DS had it first and now I'm suffering. Oh well, at least I can stay in bed tomorrow. Hope you're feeling better soon and haven't got too many caring responsibilities etc. 💐

I’m just getting over it- I was feeling awful for a week, finally starting to feel a bit better

Thank you. Fortunately have young adult DC at home so no caring responsibilities and have someone to make me hot drinks! 😊

Yes! Started feeling really unwell on Thursday and terrible yesterday and today. Some horrible mutant cold thing, been laid up until today and have zero energy now

Yes, it's been lingering for about 10 days now. Thought I was getting better then it came back with a vengeance!

Hope we all get better soon.

Started in our house with DH getting it, then adult DS 5 days later and then me 3 days after. DH and I still coughing a lot, it’s the first time in years that we’ve been this ill. DH has had both Covid booster and flu vaccine, I’ve had flu jab, but it’s been over 6 months, so not sure it’s helped this time.
