I’ve been bedridden for the past week so if I didn’t know the difference between a cold and a flu beforehand I definitely do now.

No. And actually I normally end up with a cold in October every year but this year I haven't.

I had it last week after it had gone through every one else in the house. Horrible.

My Dad and Auntie's went into a chest infection which was nasty. All cured now though!

Nope, I've done very well this year not to catch anything. Especially as I work with the general public.

Yes at the beginning of October I had a really bad sore throat but I came across these and it helped so much, especially when I was trying to sleep.

Horrid symptoms but i could still get out of bed !
Flu decks you.

Hope you're all better now, Red x

Had it for over two weeks, it was horrible. I'm a lot better now but still have excess mucus.
