recovering from swine flu, advice wanted!!

3 girlies · Nov 9th, 2009, 06:35 AM

well im on day 9 of swine flu & although im getting better i'm still a way off being fully recovered. Anyway i cant yet walk upstairs without feeling like i cant breathe, i end up gasping & laying down until i can breathe again which takes about 10 minutes. is it worth mentioning this to my doctor or am i expecting too much too soon?

also tmi...my wee is still really dark, i drink alot but its still so dark & i have worn pads & my cm is darker too, not creamy like it used to be, its orangey

Will i ever be normal again?

I think the fact that you are worried you definitely should phone the dr. I dont see anything wrong with wanting to question what you have been going through.

I really hope you are ok x x

9 days later its no wonder ur still feeling so weak. It can really take it out of a normal person, never mind a pregnant one. But it would do no harm to speak to ur gp. It can take up to 3 weeks with the normal flu and even then ur still not 100% depending on how bad u had it

Yes, you have nothing to lose by calling so I would do this x
