Not a normal cold it seems

According to the surgery nurse yesterday when hubby had to give blood, fully masked of course.

She said a cold, with many flu symptoms is circulating and it is horrible. Well we can confirm that. Unfortunately for hubby, he is 12 hours behind me so can see what’s coming poor lad.

2 1/2 boxes of tissues later, we are still going, our noses are raw. Still sneezing, noses like taps, headaches, occasional joint pains, occasional sweats, very chesty with lots of coughing. I ended up back in bed yesterday, we are drinking but have hardly any appetite.

Between us, we form half a functioning human:)

  1. The two nearest grandchildren had a few days back at school after half term and both now coughing - it just goes round and round.
    Hope you both feel better soon

    1. Thank you. I only remember our son being ill with transferred bugs after a few days back each term. It seems to be a permanent thing nowadays.

  2. I hope you are both feeling better soon, it's the lack of energy which gets me.
