So since the end of March I have had no rest from illness. Has anyone else experienced similar this year? Started with a cold mid- end march, then Had an awful stomach / sickness bug, then a sinus infection, then another cold and now another sickness/ stomach bug.

I don't know how much longer I can cope with being poorly, as soon as a i feel better something else comes and defeats me.

Currently in bed, every sip of water is coming right through me and severe stomach cramps which is stopping me from sleeping this thing off. I feel bad for my babies not having their mum on top form

i was like this when my vitamin d was low. High dose tabs and the difference was remarkable.

I'm on day 3 of a stomach bug, I haven't eaten more than 2 slices of bread since friday night. Still got the runs through the night, managing to sip water but it's coming right through me. pepto bismol didn't help

Sounds like your body hasn’t had a chance to recover before the next illness hits. There’s loads going around lately. Just focus on fluids and rest.
