Is there a bug going around

For the past month I have been feeling steadily unwell. I have frequent toilet motions and nausea. A constant background headache. Severe cramp in my foot when I sleep. My bloods are normal. My blood pressure is only slightly high. Is there a bug going around?

I'd have thought it was rather early in the year for the common winter sickness bug/s and I'm not aware of anything where I live though once the kids are back at school - as a rule in about 10 days - colds, sickness etc seem to multiply. A bit too soon for that I'd have thought. Perhaps a telephone call to your GP or a word with your local pharmacist would reveal whether anything is current where *you* live? These things tend to be pretty localised.

Certainly worth looking into and I do hope you are better soon.

ever since my abkation 6 months ago I seem to catch everything and will feel badly for several days. One dr. said he thinks afib may lower immunity due to stress. I don't feel stressed, or at least I don't think so. I am in persistent/chronic afib and am scheduled for a structural heart study in October. Believe my mitral valve with moderate regurgitation is the cause of afib.

Curious to see if anyone else will come forth with same stuff
