What ails you today?
Got an appointment with the doctor for this chest infection. It's been almost 4 weeks. It's left me really tired. I've been to the gym twice in those 4 weeks. Hopefully it'll be sorted soon.

Re: What ails you today?
Mouth ulcers.
I'm really prone to them. Bonjela does cock-all, Iglu isn't bad but 9 times out of 10 I get the ulcer in a place that will just rub off the stuff with my teeth or something.
I have two right now!

Re: What ails you today?
3 weeks for me, some sort of virus. Feels like a hangover and I'm falling asleep everywhere. No energy and I'm out of breath after 3 flights of stairs.

Re: What ails you today?
Flu bug, it started as a stinking cough and cold and utter exhaustion, now I'm just fatigued and dizzy after one set of stairs, which is a pain as my job involves a lot of climbing ladders and working at height, hence I'm unfit for work and getting stir crazy.
I also found out I had low blood pressure due to mismanagement of my regular meds, which means blood tests and more pills....

Not wishing to sound alarmist, but have you been checked out by a doctor yet?Monty wrote:3 weeks for me, some sort of virus. Feels like a hangover and I'm falling asleep everywhere. No energy and I'm out of breath after 3 flights of stairs.
That is identical to the symptoms I had at the start of my heart failure and it got prgressively worse.
Don't meant to teach you to suck eggs, but I also thought it was a virus/bug and/or quit smoking wthdrawl symptoms. I was wrong n both counts.

Re: What ails you today?
Cheers T.C. but think I'm OK as the wife and 4 kids have it as well, identical symptoms. Plus I had a full man health check up not that long ago, liver, bloods, etc etc.T.C. wrote:Not wishing to sound alarmist, but have you been checked out by a doctor yet?Monty wrote:3 weeks for me, some sort of virus.

Plus I managed to run a mile last weekend with my kids for sport relief, so it can't be that bad.
I do have to be careful though, my Dad died aged 46 from heart disease and I'm 43 now!

Doctor confirmed my chest infection. Right side is worse. I've been told not to exercise for 2 weeks and been given a course of antibiotics.

Re: What ails you today?
I've not been sleeping too well lately. My wife has started snoring.
Yesterday I felt exhausted, so I went to bed about 9.30 and slept.
Today I feel knackered but at least the headache has gone.

Re: What ails you today?
I used to have that problem. One of the advantages of being a biker is wearing ear plugs. I wear them in bed as well, shuts her out perfectly.Kwacky wrote:I've not been sleeping too well lately. My wife has started snoring.
I have used ear plugs when I sleep for nearly 30 years and SWMBO can snore to her hearts content
