FLU Bug Virus thingy...

[Adz]

My advice so far to shake it off / prevent from getting any worse :nenau

I've stayed dressed in bed to swet it out
Drank water with paracetamol
Lived on ice lollys & ice cream to sooth my throat
Today managed toast, lemonade & lemsip

So far so good

The down side is that this bug can come & go for upto 2 months

Good luck all

Ya dont want this

Well i had Glandular Fever 11 years ago & that put me in hospital for a month & it relapsed 4 years ago & put me in hospital for a week...

This is definitely the next worse bug to it

So i could have it for the whole of January

Fingers crossed i can now fight it :naughty

I've had it for the whole of Christmas.
I don't know that it is flu, but it is one bad cold! Colds don't usually knock me about this much.
I had glandula fever many years ago, that knocked me about but not enough to put me in hospital.
You have my sympathy (which is a rare thing )

Had a real bad cold over chrimbo too Had proper Flu in June and that was real bad, laid in bed under quilt blankets and still cold in some of the warmest days we had. Off work for 3 1/2 weeks and took ages to shake off.

Hope your feeling better soon
Jim

Get well soon, Adz. When I was getting my broken finger sorted in Southend A&E on Thursday, there were people drifting in and out in face masks as somebody is in there in isolation with Swine Flu

Symapthy & empathy fella!

Family's been going through it :surrender Food barely passed our lips for a fortnight, heating cranked up & fires lit (av. temp around the house nearly 25 degrees) & we were still shivvering with teeth chattering

I did find single malt, self medication to be helpful :augie:lol:thumb2!

Seem to be recovering now.... Fingers crossed!

I couldn't (& can't) visit the quacks. The surgery on my back (yeah ! can't wait ...) is scheduled for Jan 11th. And as much as I'd love an excuse to avoid it... I reckon I have to go through. I've upset work with my short notice 6 weeks off, struggled to arrange cover etc. The last thing I need right now is for the surgeon to say "you've been ill recently, we'll have to postpone..."

Get well soon to all that need it!

Very very serious bit of advice...........................

If youve got anything resembling a cough, postpone. Trust me on that one, been there as they say

Otherwise good luck :thumb2

Id heard that too. We seem to have had several lingering colds and a stomach bug this year which bears that out.

One of our supervisors at work has had a cold for about six weeks now, his flu injection didnt do him much good . Havent had a laugh .....honest :lol:lol:lol:lol:lol

Everyone needs to calm about this swine flu bollox too. At the moment its the seasonal flu virus not swine flu. Swine flu is a tabloid press condition at the moment. No one knows how , what or when the seasonal virus will mutate into could be swine type could be bird type could be extreme4x4 porn type but it hasnt happened on a large scale yet this season.

Only thing to bear in mind though (call me the grim reaper if you wish ) is that we as a nation are overdue a pandemic. Its a mater of when, not if. Thats why its so important all the health and hygiene advice is followed that the NHS/PCT's etc issue :thumb2

Decent article here

even so I think where theyre referring to H1N1 and then comparing it to H1N1 they mean H5N1:doh

Just shows dont believe everything the papers tell you :lol

The doctor told my mate this week that he has Swine flu, so I have a sneaky feeling it is out there right now.
Swine flu does exist, so why should it not be here right now? It doesn't just disappear.
Anyway, I'm feeling better now, but not completely. Well enough to go and do some work.
