it's the *sniff* flu bug

it's official ... now i'm down with flu ... got 2 more days of MC (did return to work but my headache was killing me - synflex wasn't working so had to get a jab). Turn out I had fever, which explains why I was so doozy ... basically was gong dai dai and sleepy till I couldn't keep awake. After lunch (just next door so it's not so bad to walk) I tried to settle in but my headache was getting worse so I bailed out and wanted to go home. Barely into the cab ride I changed my mind, I had to go see the doctor.

Found out that I had photophobia (fear of light - which makes sense since sudden bright lights tend to trigger off migraines), and I had fever. Ok, so that explain part of my headache. Doc gave me a jab too - wasn't too painful but my butt ached for 15 minutes on the way back. Sweetie hubby came to pick me up, and thank goodness for it too. It was raining so heavily! And besides. I forgot to bring out my house keys (yes, again).

Came home and just went to bed. Rascal was fussing around but I didn't bother about him. He everntually woke me up while BARKING in his sleep (he was sleeping in the corner next to the bedside table).

Still having fever and I feel the onset of sore throat. Geez, not a good start to the year of Dog is it?

Aching, headaches, and giddiness

For the past few days I haven't been feeling very good - headaches and backaches and slight giddiness. Today it got worse, my finger joints started to hurt too with the giddiness getting a bit more serious.

Called up Silvercross @ HV and 2 of my favs docs are on duty (one till 5pm and the other after that). Was quite happy since they are quite familiar with my medical history and they are very doctors who show interest in their patients.

Anyway Dr Soh thinks my problems (excluding the backache) is due to my nasal cavity being congested, hence the symptoms of "heated eyes", giddiness, headaches as well as my nasal sounding voice (not blocked nose). Gave me medical leave to cover for today (I went about 4pm - my hubby came and pick me up) and for tomorrow. Came home, took my medication and tried to sleep. It was terrible - I kept having nightmares and keep waking up every 10 minutes or so (checked the clock). I just hope it goes away soon ... It certainly doesn't feel good. Yes it is nice to have medical leave to rest, but it just means my work gets piled up. Also, we work as a team, my absence means stuff gets delayed for other people. And to be on medical leave because I feel like this, it's definitely not worth it.

No, I'm not preggy.
