    Anyone else have it or had it recently? I'm little miss cranky pants at the moment. This is my third day in bed and it doesn't look like it's going away any time soon. Not impressed. :(

    Yeah that's me too, no energy whatsoever. Never had a flu like this before. Sleep is good though, sleep as much as you can. Hope you feel better soon scoot on.

    Aw... that sucks when the weather is nice (ish). I had it in April/May - hopefully that was my dose for the year. Not nice - being so drained is the worst part.

    I have awful blocked sinuses though - head feels like it's about to burst it's so stuffed. And it gets painful too - migraine from it last week. Summer can suck if you've allergies... :(

    Back to work tomorrow I'd say because I'm going on two weeks holidays next week. I think I've just about shaken it, although I'm still knackered!! 8 hours in the office tomorrow will be a struggle.

    Yeah definitely the lack of energy is the worst part. Sleep is great though. Thank God I have quiet housemates.

    Migraine sounds nasty, I know a few people who get bad hay fever in the summer and nothing seems to really work for them :(

    Hope you're better scoot on. Don't go in if you don't feel up to it though, you could make yourself worse.

    Right back atcha hun.

    Ah I'll be grand. It's not busy at work at the mo so it's not too bad. Although one of the girls just txt me to tell me that my boss thinks i'm dying so to stay out a bit longer. I feel really guilty though cuz I'm going to be off for two weeks really soon. I think I'll go in and see how it goes. I can always pull the puppy dog eyes and go home if I'm knackered. This is the weirdest flu I've ever had. Today I started to feel better and then suddenly I go back to feeling crap, then just as suddenly I go back to feeling ok again.
