Have been aching on and off from last weekend, Wednesday was quite bad this time with nasty headaces ... Thursday taking the morning shower *hurt* as my skin had got really sensitive/prickley, and by midday had got got progressively cold enough to wear an outdoor jacket and still shiver enough so I couldn't even type properly, so decided to go home sick (which took 40mins walk instead of the usual 25 - *must* learn that bus timetable) and took over 1 hour to feel vagually warm.
Finally felt fine midday today, got Stuart to drive to Comet/Curries to look at fridges (I needed to get out of the house), and that set me back to Friday's illness level. Currently wrapped up in a warm duvet, inside a sleeping bag (which I should be okey in sub freezing conditions) with socks, fleece trousers, tshirt knee length dress with wooley cardigan and *still* cold. :(( The only time I feel better is when I am horizontal - sitting/standing up sets of the symptoms, so can only do this for short periods (currently drinking a decaf chai, hence why on laptop updating LJ). And I am missing the fireworks party *glum* . I love fireworks.
Apparrently I should have not gone to work Thursday, but I am not used to being ill without a cough/bronchal infection, so shrugged it off as nothing too serious. Feeling rather dumb now. Hoping to get to the really hot feverish sweating (gross I know) stage as that tends to remove the headache/body aches/sensitive skin symptoms for a while. Then it cycles round again.
I am sure you can tell I am an impatient patient :P
