man flu or maybe swine flu

[pugs]

Well, thought I would share this with everyone, it started as a slight cough on thursday night by friday lunch it was full on, my nose wouldn't stop running and is bright red and mega sore my head is totally battered and feels like it's going to explode and my tempreture is that of a car about 90 degrees or so, when I start to cough it tends to last about 10 mins and makes my head 20 times worse, stayed in bed all day saturday and most of today and still feel like crap and have no smell or taste, if woman ever tells you that man flu dosn't exist point them to read this!
Iam writing this for all us men who suffer from man flu and it should be a reconised condition in the N.H.S and we should get a week or so off work automatically with full pay!! please if you have any thoughts do tell all.......

mmm, sounds all to familiar to me.. I'm just recovering from Swine Flu for the 2nd time this year! my better half also has it and she has been left with a chest & kidney infection! (she only has one kidney as she gave the other to her mum) so its serious stuff! the first time I had this year it left me with pneumonia for 6 weeks so its no joke! cases in Derbyshire tripled last week, Tami flu (the drug) does help but its not a cure! so give the help line a call and they will put you through to a doctor and you will be asked many questions to determine if you do have Swine Flu, if you have get it sorted..

Consider this... with bird flu we killed millions of birds world wide... swine flu we killed a few thousand mexican pigs... I hope we don't all get asian flu..!
