That wouldn't be Man Flu, by any chance, would it?

Sneezing, coughing and a few aches would be the least of your problems: a raging fever that causes dizziness and near hospitalisation, a headache that feels like an annyeurism, every nerve ending of your body firing with electricity, confined to bed, (literally confined to bed, not just because it is comforting) for about 5 days solid, your body completely lathered with sweat, shivering uncontrollably, lapsing in and out of consciousness and unable to distinguish reality from the lucid feverish nightmares you constantly have, unable to eat, virtually unable to even stand...oh and you can probably add serious vomiting and diarrhoea to that mix too. You may well have lost a fair bit of weight by the end of it all and won't really be completely over it for a couple of weeks.
I got the flu when I was 15. I collasped at school, fainted when I got home and was basically unconscious for 2 days and in bed for a week. Will never forget it.
Maybe men are tougher than women. I get the flu ever winter and I'm usually only off for a day. And it's definately the (man) flu
I had a sore throat and throbbing ear yesterday. I went to the chemist and bought panadol, lozengers and a lip gloss and that seems to have sorted it.
I dont want to turn this into a medical topic as I know they are forbidden here on AAM but, has it always been diagnosed as the flu Firefly? Typically a person is stuck to the bed for at least 3-5 days with the flu
Sounds like any Saturday morning to me
