Sorry to hear you have not been feeling too chipper lately, old lad. :)

You need to look after your emotional well being.

Being a miserable old bastard probably doesn't help. >:D

To look after my emotional wellbeing, I would have to stay in bed where I am, never turn the telly on, open a newspaper or look at my iPad. Turn off my mobile, unplug my home phone and stick cotton wool in my ears  ;D

That's why I don't have the flu jab.

Mum was rough for a week after hers. Can only think that there might be a reaction to the TCV jabs... Was fine after the first two (AZ) , but the booster (Pfizer) was pretty horrible, not helped by catching TCV on top of it. Fortunately that only lasted a few days.

Have either of you tested for TCV :-\

Two Chinese sniffle jabs but have declined the third as they don't seem to do much, and some people have become ill.

Way too young for a flu jab but I wouldn't bother anyway. :)

It's flu, nowt to do with the flu jab. And I've had four coronavirus jabs, and would accept a fifth. This is why the flu jab is pot luck:

Hope you are soon on the mend  :y  Remember, any doubts, or if it lingers too long, demand a blood test, as you don’t want to end up like me.
Has that put your mind at rest …… no, thought not.   ;D

I'm going back to re-read your post. After that I'll probably smack my own arse and go for a walk in the freezing rain  ;D

A few shots of Brandy always makes me feel much better if I'm feeling rough or think I've got a bug developing.

Just a thought like.... but given that Mrs STEMO is a Schoolmistress, you haven't picked up this Strep A bug that's going round?  ???

Adults can catch it too, so maybe Mrs S brought it home. Starts with a sore throat as well...  :-\

Listening to the car radio a few minutes ago and there was a fellow on their who had it & he mentioned that the sore throat was almost unbearable , so might be a very good point.

Maybe you have the same respiratory illness that is pandemic here in  Spain. The hospitals are chocker. The amount of Covid is quite low. A good friend got it and pegged after a week. He was 90 but without it he would still be here.

I really don't know what flavour of infection I've got, I just know it's a nasty bastard. I'm a bit blasè when it comes to my health, we all think we're hard and can't understand all the fuss over a bit of a cold. But the world is changing rapidly, and all kinds of nasties are waiting to pounce. There's not much we can do to stop it, except hand washing and the like I guess.
