Anyone else got a flu or cold? (This thread is old)
 

I've been suffering with a flu this week and was just wondering if it's happening to a lot more people during this change of seasons. Tell me I'm not alone. :joker:

Yeah I've had a really horrible cold/headache thing that's lasted for like a week and a half. It started out with a sore throat and headache, turned into a cold/cough and then for the past 3 days or so my ears have been blocked :worry: Today is the first day I've felt better since it began tbh.

You have not had flu. You have had a cold

Big, big difference

I've had a blocked nose and cough since sunday

I actually have flu, I know the difference. :joker:

Yes I've actually had a pretty bad cold for about the past week. :joker: Kinda starting to get better now.

I got rid of mine about a week ago.

My poor nose looks like it's been through a cheese grater after all of the wiping. :bawling:

Soulmate tbh :flutter:

Tbf, I've only ever had a proper flu twice in my life and both times I was bedridden to the point where I couldn't lift my head from the pillow without collapsing.

Prove it Jessica. :nono:

And how can you tell if you've got a cold, YOU SNOTTY NOSED TODDLER!!!!

ugh I know, it's awful I was literally in bed for four days apart from meals. :joker: I slept for 14 hours on the first night. :blush2:

:mad: Are you happy now?

This is from your beloved NHS

Note: My fever was exactly 38 on a digital thermometer (under the tongue)

It still hasn't completely gone after nearly three weeks. :fist:

I've got the flu and me mam is a nurse so she knows I have the bloody flu.

For a week :) :) :)

Only had the flu once and i got it the night before my drama exam :) Still got an A* though so holla at your bitch I guess?

I had a cold last month and I got better but I think I'm getting another one as I've developed a minor sore throat and blocked nose in the past 24 hours :/

Three Scots saying no

Interesting.jpeg :think:

had the sniffles a few weeks back but touch wood - :shrug: its gone.

there are varying levels of flus in the same sense there are varying levels of colds :shrug:

You are correct indeed! Good man yourself.

Not yet but I'm sure I'll get one soon </3

I had quite a lot of colds earlier in the year

Not yet which is a minor miracle considering everyone in the house besides me has had it over the last few weeks
