Default Influenza

So this is the first time in my memory that I have had the flu and can I say OMG! I have never felt so horrible! Everything hurts! My ears, neck, joints, fingers (?!) and of course my throat. I have two lovely lumps, one on each side of my neck, that are so noticable that I have had people ask me what disease I have. In addition to the nose that is alternating between running like an open tap and being so blocked up that I can't breath. And my body apparently can't decide what temperature it wants to be, so I go from boiling hot to freezing cold within a matter of 5 minutes.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry but i needed to whinge.

Hope your all having a good week

aww sorry you are ill. Flu is one thing folk don't think too much of, like it is just a bad cold or something, until you get it then you fully understand how awful it is. It is also easily underestimated so take really good care of yourself, plenty of liquids and stay in bed. If it gets any worse call in the doctor. Don't mess with flu!

On the plus side, it normally doesn't stick around too long. The more you get it, the less severe the symptoms seem, because your body starts to develop immunity to it...unfortunately it's also one of those nasty fast-adapting viruses that changes constantly, so you'll never be fully immune. Lots of fluids are a must. Lay low and it'll hopefully pass over quickly.

Feel better soon!
