Sounds like a hangover, Sue, especially as I thought you were going to fall off the stage backwards last night :-)

This is exactly why and how this is being spread. Stay off work and stop infecting everyone.

It's not a hangover.


What a sad life you must lead. All you seem to do is troll on here.


Grow up.

That just about covers it. I'm improving but it's still there after several days.

I have had a long term problem with my throat and nose resulting in having a camera up my nose and down my throat last year.

All was clear but I have had recent bad period of aching ..coughing .. Felt like death warmed up.


I think I now have a nasal infection as I have a terrible stench in one nostril.. It's vile .. putrid..

I went to SELDOC and have just started a course of Amoxcillin.. so I hope it will clear up.. It's driving me crazy.


I can smell it in my sleep...


Foxy

I have had bugs on and off for several weeks now, if not months. Bunged up nose, headache, aching teeth, bleary eyes, dry cough, runny nose, general weary feeling and aches in parts of the body. I have had some of these symptoms some of the time and other symptoms at other times. It has left me feeling pretty low - I'm glad that I am retired now and don't have to go to work.

Whenever anyone has a cold flu virus then everyone says there is a bug going around. Always. And it shall ever be so. Specially with cramped public transport acting as a lovely petris dish for sharing and the pressures upon people to go to work when so ill, and adverts advertising not very efficient remedies so that people think they feel better when they are still ill, so they feel guilty and think they're able to do a day's work whilst all the time infecting more people at work and on cramped public transport.


So that's why it goes around. Rant over :D

Keep washing your hands and do it more often than you think you need to. I know it is not going to stop everyone from catching bugs, but it does help. (Anti-bacterial gels kill some bugs; washing your hands gives them - including viruses - nowhere to stick.)

Rub your eyes with the back of your hand; push the bell on the bus with your knuckle; do same with cashpoints or in the lift; get a flu jab; sleep as much as you can. All of these can help but we all fall ill eventually.

This thing lasts a month at least - and everybody has

it - wondering if it's pollution and not infectious.

But I went for 10 years without catching anything until

this year. YOu don't always catch things - it depends

on a number of things.


There is a virus that resets your immune system :(

I've been coughing on and off for a month and I'm starting to think it's the pollution .

I don't think "everybody" has it!


If it was due to pollution, would the symptoms not be purely respiratory? Eg coughing?


I was interested to see someone above had aches in their teeth. I had that too, didn't connect it at all to my other symptoms, but my teeth are fine now, so maybe it was related!

    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly. 
    • Eh? Straight ahead of what?  If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove. Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!
    • yes I’ve spotted this too — it’s near me and I’m very intrigued to see what it’ll be 👀👀👀👀
