I went away for a few days in in June and got the Flu too, its never happened before, also went to Keswick for the day ( from Northumberland) and it took me 2 days to get over it.
Going to see Rheumy today a new one as the last one has left so am taking as much info as possible with me as sometimes i feel a bit fobbed off and am getting a bit sick of it, i feel some dont seem to understand what we are going through.
ive had this flu since 4th october and it wont go away, The rheumy i have at mo dosnt seam interested i dont know for sure whats wrong with me because of what reason i dont know ! . i just phoned the hospital for my blood results from 26th Sept and he hasnt even looked at them that says it all.
Hello Steph, sorry to hear you are poorly. If you have, or have had, flu, you are not going to feel well again until about two weeks has passed. So until you have been ill for three weeks or more the doctors aren't going to take too much notice. You just have to look after yourself and nurse yourself. There are some things that medicine can't do much about and flu is one of them I'm afraid. Remember too that your immune system is compromised both by your illness and the steroids, so if you pick up an infection the chances are you will feel worse than you would have done if you had not had an illness to begin with.
