Scared for the future
In January I caught it again with
swine
flu
and nearly died. Since then my breathing is bad and I sometimes panic. I have to go for a ct scan tomorrow and I'm scared. I have to have an ambulance take me as I can now only walk a few steps before becoming so exhausted I can't stand up.

Interesting article about Inflammation and disease
I also know I had the
swine
flu
7-8 years ago...Is the flu common in the UK as here? I also have West Nile mosquitos down the block in the pond near my home. Wonder if all our inflammation and illnesses are due to viruses. The dr I did a food plan with had onions and garlic in every meal.

It was
swine
flu
that floored me again. I went downhill fast...it literally felt like the energy was draining from me like water from an open tap. The Endo did not want to alter meds as 'looking at last bloods levels were very low'. Grrh! He asked me to see a psychologist. I did.

Diagnosed with Thyroid Cysts.
I was diagnosed in 1997 of having COPD - Emphysema but I was able to continue working with this condition, in 2009, I contacted N1H1 -
Swine
Flu
and unfortunately this exacerbated my Emphysema as a consequence I was unable to continue working.

Waiting for my Results
She was rather abrupt, and although I was answering her questions, she kept cutting me off... very long story short, she seems to think the prednisone I took during and after my hospital stay for my shortness of breath due to
swine
flu
attacking my lungs, is mostly responsible for my symptoms.

Newly diagnosed and totally confused
When my bloods have shown that my white cells are low and I have raised it as a concern for my safety I have been given no alternative but to work with patients with infectious diseases ( eg:
swine
flu
, meningitis , Norwalk virus, c.diff) I tried to discreetly raise this concern once before the start

Mysterious symptoms causing shortness of breath, body aches + dry/wet cough with mucus - asthma?
I had the flu (and this years flu in my country made a lot of people sick and got them in intensive care apparently, also a lot of cases with
swine
flu
). I couldn't do anything except lay in bed for 4-5 days and eat soup. I had fever at night and was extremely sweaty.
