Have I had the flu?


started with what i thought was tonsillitious, tired, headahe, ear ach loss of energy,tooth ach and a bad cough.
I dont seem to have much energy for anything now , only work 2 days a week so only worked one of them.
usually go to the gym and walk the children to school most days.
have felt so tire and worn out for almost 2 weeks now is it a virus as the doctor would say or is it flu /

I had to take to my bed for the first 4 days as I ached soo much and felt tired, headach etc

If it were Flu, as in Influenza virus, you would be on the bed unable to function at all for about four to five days and your body would be unresponsive to almost any demands of your children. So no, probably not "flu".
Either some other virus is affecting you, or you have an infection in the throat, ear or chest. Insist on some blood pathology work, and take it from there with your Doc.

Take vitimins, and go to the doctor to get some anti biotics, he will confirm if its the flue or tell you if it something else. If its starting to go, then don't go to the doctor, but if it is the same or getting worst I'd definately seek medical advice.

aching limbs is a classic sign of the flu due to the increase of cytokines in the body. You'd also know if you had the flu because of loss of appitite and feeling lethargic and often vomiting. So bed rest and vitamins and minerals to replace the lack of food you've been eating
