living where i do and having a poor immune system, it was going to happen at somepoint!!
ergh... just wanted to apologise for not being around for a while. have now had swine flu for 8days, and its not giving me much leave. i've finally got my head together enough to post but ergh!
extending my empathy to others that may be suffering.. its far from nice
" my precious, precious child, I love you and I would never, never leave you during your times of trials and suffering. When you see only one set of footprints it was then that I carried you" you were carried out of are lifes into the next and when its my time to leave this life I know i will be carried into the next life with you.
I wish i had my world complete again.

There are times to stay put, and what you want will come to you.
But there are times to go out into the world and find such a thing for yourself.
I aint no abacus but you can count on me.
from my experience it feels like you've been hit by a bus, and its gone over you a couple of times... at one point i really thought i might die >.< ergh
thankfully the vomiting has subsided for now.... but the rest is still lurking- i guess it depends on your immune system to begin with as to how it might hit you.
aching bloked sinuses, migrane like headaches, dry cough that rings through you every time you cough, several bog rolls of nose blowing, bowl by the bed, feeling like you're going to pass out even when lying down, chest so tight that feels like you can't breathe- not helped by blocked sinuses, fever that sends you hot to cold in seconds and back again not knowing which end to point and the loo- its certainly not glamourous!
i'm feeling slightly better now in that i can move around without holding on to things and am actually able to Think now! its lasting its course though :(
the rubbish part is trying to take meds to help and then bringing them straight back up again :( but alas i]m getting through it slowly. Dr said they aren't trying to contain it any more so i can go out if i want to- i don't really feel like it at all though.
its a horrible bug, and i hope they get the vaccination sorted soon so people don't have to have it.
its coming up to 2 weeks now and its only just giving me some leave.
managing to eat bread and mash, but that in itself is unhelpful as i shouldn't eat those things but right now its just sustinance rather than nothing.

“The good things don’t always soften the bad, but vice-versa, the bad things don’t necessarily spoil the good things and make them unimportant.”
“Nobody important? Blimey, that’s amazing. Do you know, in nine hundred years of time and space I’ve never met anyone who wasn’t important before.”
“If it’s time to go, remember what you’re leaving. Remember the best. My friends have always been the best of me.”
Wake me up before I change again
Remind me the story that I won't get insane
Tell me why it's always the same
Explain me the reason why I'm so much in pain.
To keep your tablets down, even if you hate milk, fill a tiny glass (enough to swallow tablet) and take it with that - milk lines your stomach, i was told when i had to be hospitalised with a chest infection (evertime i cought i vomitted..lovely) to take a tiny bit of milk with my tablet to line my stomach. Had to have it in hospital too. Try that if you're still being sick.
Think i have the start of it..migraines for the past 3 days, really bad sore throat and cough, keep going hot and cold, i ACHE everywhere, and i have an upset tummy but no vomitting thank god as i can't cope with sick - i can cope with most things but not sick, it sends me into a panic and i feel like i can't breathe!
