Hi guys sorry i have not been online since the chat night... I got unwell on hogmanay, didnt even stay up for the bells...stomach was killin me... been in bed for 4 days with an added chest and throat infection...been very tired and weak..had to phone my work today to tell them i have to stay off a couple of days...cant risk passing this to my clients..
Hope to get a doc appointment on monday,,,my surgery are hopeless for getting an appointment...worse still they aint keen on giving you antibiotics...so i hope they listen to me this time...
I'm sorry to hear that you've been so sick. I noticed that you've been absent, and I was afraid that we might have said something during the chat that upset you, or we kept you up too late, and you were upset with us over that.
I hope you can get what you need from your doctor, tomorrow. Being so sick is definitely not the way to begin the new year.
Hope you feel better soon.

Tex u guys could never upset me ...stomach had been playing up over xmas too..definately been strict with what i have been eating...reckon i caught a virus...thanks for that!!
i got a full blown flu...im still in bed...sweat is pouring off me...nose is red raw...mangaed to get a doc appointment for tuesday morning...not been out since hogmanay thanks for listening guys..
It's rough being sick any time of the year but the holidays make it even worse. I know the flu bug is rough in my part of the US right now. They are saying some of the flu medicine isn't working on this strain of flu.
Take care and gentle hugs to you!
Love,

"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha
Bummer for sure! I thought you had the flu shot. Also, I remember hearing the "sales pitch" from some doctors, claiming that if you had the shot, and happened to get the flu anyway, it would be a very mild case. Your case doesn't sound very mild, though.
I hope it runs it's course pretty soon. We miss you.

Thanks for all your good wishes guys... been to the doc this morning...god!! he looked about 25 yrs old.....Anyway he said i have a viral infection and he aint giving me antibiotics in case it gives me D...ive just to take paracetemol and codeine.. so i hope this is gonna go soon...god this has really floored me Appears there is a lot of nasty stuff going about at the moment...Dont think i have ever had this strain of virus before..god my nose is glowing more than rudolphs lol!!
Im going to purchase some echinchea for my immune system and buy loads of blackcurrant juice for vit c. Been drinking loads of blackcurrant tea..Ill be back on form soon this evil little virus aint gonna win
You know, it isn't fair - people who have MC should be immune to viruses like that, because we get more than our fair share of misery, without any virus.
As long as you continue to take good care of yourself, you'll eventually kick all those little viruses' butts, and they'll give up and leave you alone. Lots of juice and tea, should be good medicine.
