Im 11+5 and have got a really bad throat. It feels like my throat is closing up and ive been in bed all day with a really bad headache and sickness.
Is there anything i can take or is it best not to take anything??

Paracetemol an Ibuprofen are fine, I'm pretty sure, but check the NHS Direct website - it will tell you what's ok and what's not. Keep smiling!!!!

Paracetemol is fine. I've heard than nurofen can cause misscarriage but maybe that's only in early pregnancy.

Thanks everyone.
Have just took a paracetamol so hopefully that will do the trick, was too scared to take 2 though so just had the one

i got told by my doctor that paracetemol is ok im moderation after 12 weeks unless you in real bad pain then of course the good of it would outway the bad!
