Oh why oh why on earth does it have to be bloody me!!!!!! I it all started on Thursday and we had a lovely day out to Newcastle. I felt a tad dodgy getting the kids ready, but I thought a promise is a promise so carried on regardless. Paul took us to the train station and we got a connection from Darlington. On the X-cross country I started to feel a tad sick a bit green round the gulls shall we say. But I am like that on trains anyway so I just ignored it.
Got to Newcastle, started to feel a tad hot and lightheaded, but I just thought it was a nice day and I tend to sweat a lot anyway. Took the kids the the Hancock which is fab and free had a wanders round there took some pics for the scrapbook. I loved the displays as they were interactive and I couldnt get Jack off some of them. We bought some gifts to take home with us and then we decided to do a bit of shopping as the boys needed things for their holidays.
I didnt really have much lacklustre at this point, but I knew I had to get the stuff. Well we went into Primark, dont ask me why I went it there as I have fair trade issues and ethical issues with this shop. Plus the fact it was like a cattle market, I just wanted to get in and out as fast as I could. Of course Connor loves this shop as it is cheap and I did tell him it was cheap crap as well!!!!! We got our goods and by this point my head had started to ache.
We got outside and breathed the sweet, not so sweet air of Newcastle. We then decided it was getting nearer to Lunch and I had agreed to pizza hut, by this point I wanted to be sick. So wandered into TK Maxx and got a 12x12 for £2 and then found this craft shop opposite that smelt well damp, still would not be rude not to buy anything and spent a measliy £6.00.
We went to pizza hut which was a trek!!!! By the time we got there I had decided yes I would like something to eat and drink. So I did, big mistake!!!! I ran to the loos and chucked up!!! So I stuck to fluids from then on.
We found this fab comic book shop and I was in heaven, got all my cute amie stuff I was looking for and chatted to the owner who was lovely [still kick myself for not buying the cupcake tee shirt!!!]. We went to our last place to visit of the day the Discovery Muesum, I totally loved this place, it was so interesting, it had so much history about the Newcastle upon Tyne region in it and the displays were great. I could have spent all day in there, but I was dying by this point and really wanted to get home. I was just so glad that it was only a short walk to the station and then we got straight on to a train.
I could have cried, I did when I saw Paul, I felt so out of it.So I retired to bed.
friday the fun starts, I didnt sleep, I was confused, feeling sick, tummy ache, temp, crying all the time, the cough I didnt know were on earth that had come from and the buzzing sound inside my brain. I came down stairs in hysterics claiming Jack had given me swine flu and why is he stig of the dump??? As he had been coughing all week. This of course got Paul in a bad mood and started shouting at me telling me to calm down. But all I could do was shout, cry, gasp for breath and cough. So he put me front of the PC and told me to go to the website. About 30 seconds later I was given a reference number to give to paul to get my tamiflu.
I must admit as a healthcare professional I do not agree to self diagnosis as it might be nothing. And what the goverment has done is wrong. It could wipe out the countries stocks of Tamiflu. Plus you may get calous people pretending they have it to get it to sell on the black market. SO please do not abuse this. I have asthma and heart problems and we called my GP later who reassured my that I have done the right thing, as I am classed as at risk.
I have only just started to feel my normal self and it is Monday now. I still feel dizzy and heavy headed and the odd ache and pain. I want to sleep but I am fighting it all the way. It isnt a nice thing to have had and I cannot describe it as too many things happened at once. But I am now eating a better and healther diet. So please dont abuse it.. Look after your body as you only get one!!!!!!!!
