I'm Currently Feeling: | Ladies I have an urgent question! Well, I am in my 2ww and honestly I do believe I am pregnant- but I have an issue!
I am sick! My husband had a horrible head/chest/congestion cold and I avoided him like the plague but it got me! I already have an insane head ache and can't see straight from it and from what I have heard from people who have it it feels worse than strep throat once it is full on. The symptoms are head congestion, chest congestion, Horribly stuffy nose, head aches, cough and all that awefull stuff but here is where I am stuck: What can I do?
Do I just have to let it run the course without any antibiotics? | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Paracetomol and plenty of fluids. Best thing you can do at this point. Oooh, and plenty of rest.
Tiny eggy is v. unlikely to be affected by a bug or virus at this point, but IMO anti-biotics can be a double edged sword at the best of times!
Your body will fight it off soon enough....but you need to rest up and let your body mend itself. Worse thing you can try and do is 'soldier' through xx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | No, I wont be testing until my Af is due if it doesn't show up and I will be testing via blood test at the doc office. AF isn't due until the 22nd.. But I do have sore and heavy breasts so I dont want to take any chances. | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | Try some steam (what do they call it when you put hot water in a bowl and breath in the vapour) dont put anything in it though just water should help you feel a bit better and u can do it while resting

I'm Currently Feeling: | Thanks so much! I have also been suggested from hot tea with lemon and honey. And a shower, Lol. So, looks like I will be busy! I am going up town to buy some Tylenol right now as Doc said it was okay to take it. *Arrggh* I hope this goes away as quickly as it came on!! | | | | Status: Offline
