Cough

Really bad cough, feeling very weak , loss of appetite since 6 december , before that swollen throat ,,maybe laryngitis , gp does not know , have to go back in a few weeks , no voice now since dec 6 ...this is an awful virus so many people have it , I am just resting and nibbling as much as I can ...it is not nice ....don't panic ....lots of people seem to have it ....but you do panic when you feel so awful and it won't go away ....I tried antibiotics they did not work .....take care ....kat x

There has been a virus/bug doing the rounds that initially clears up
Then 'it' returns stronger - on the upper respiratory with a hundred day cough ...

It has needed antibiotics to clear the upper respiratory .

My hubby and his colleagues have had this ...
They all work in hospital(s) too .

Touch wood (tapping my head) I haven't contracted it .
Had my flu jab end of October , (they hadn't had this done)

Makes me wonder and consider any connection ?
 
I had my flu jab and phneumia one , awful virus x stay well
 
Hope you all get well soon.
I have developed a sore throat today,bit worried as I have a 7hr flight tomorrow to Abu Dhabi,I expect I wont be the only one with germs on the airline.
 
Much happier today,throat spray is working,doesn't hurt so much and able to eat now
 
Back to doctor tomorrow,was well for a while then Friday it come back and I started vomited and coughing again
