January 1, 201511 yr Everybody around me was ill either by the flu, a cold or a combination of that. I got an ant-flu shot in 2014 (sounds cool huh?) BUT there's fluttering another virus around that was not included in the flu shot. (I'm a high risk person so that's why I get the shot)ALL afternoon I was heaving the chills, even my electric blanket couldn't get me warm: I temperature with an ear temp and nothing ordinairy, but I FELT I was getting a fever. So I found the butt one :P and it appears the old fashion way of temperaturing is more accurate. A little fever. Which I expect to raise in the evening. I'm not taking paracetamol want to get a clear view.I'm not coughing, sneezing etc. just headache, fever and my body aches and that dizzy feeling that gets worse the higher your temp gets!*smirk* would this be my New Years present, the flu?Not that I'm going to dramatise it. Just.... I GOT THE ANTI-FLU SHOT?!?!
January 1, 201511 yr Sorry you feeling under the weather.... Nothing like do-it- yourself....you gave me a giggle everlyn.... Hugs xx
January 1, 201511 yr Well, maybe having the flu will take your mind off smoking.... Get well, Evelyn!
January 1, 201511 yr Sorry that you seem to be coming down with the flu. Unfortunately the shot doesn't seem to be working as well as it should have this year. If you do develop a fever make sure that you go to your doctor or the ER for a swab to confirm that it is the flu and so they can prescribe you the Tamiflu because you are high risk. I hope you get to feeling better.
January 2, 201511 yr Ughh...the flu to start the new year? I hope you are feeling better soon Evelyn!

January 2, 201511 yr Author Sorry that you seem to be coming down with the flu. Unfortunately the shot doesn't seem to be working as well as it should have this year.

I hope you get to feeling better. Going to for the pill in injection form today at my housedoc, so I can ask! So far it still lingers and doesn't pull through full blown but I feel worse then last afternoon and have to cycle to the practice.
January 2, 201511 yr Author Thanks all of you for watching over me so well! I promise to drink enough water / tea and eat at least some toast or a sandwich
January 3, 201511 yr Sorry I missed this, so glad you're on the mend Evelyn. Our house have all had this and it sucks doesn't it! I don't know what's worse the pounding head or the temperature whizzing up and down ever five minutes. Sleep it off, if you can my lovely xx
