I've been back from home two and a half hours and been asleep for all of it. And now, faced with the prospect of dinner versus bed I'm going for bed. I will shower, though, I'll give you that. I don't know if I can go back to work tomorrow, might have to go to a doctor because I don't feel like I'm breathing properly, like I have to really concentrate to get enough air, and I'm not having fun. <--- comical understatement. At the very least I need to buy some kind of expectoranty cough medicine so I can get the snails out of my lungs.

Yes, probably good idea to see a medico, just in case. /eta: assuming medicos aren't going to be complete d/bags I AM SORRY *hugs*

My slightly eccentric war-rations Grandma always used to make me this when i was sick and I used to hack up the odd lung or two from constant sore throats til my teens.Admittedly not swine flu sick but!always soothed my throat and mind.

Im sure its the reason i have a sweet tooth but heh,it doesn't taste as bad as it looks.honest.
You need ;bog standard honey ,stawberry jam ,orange juice (proper stuff not!the dilute stuff),and lemon juice. Brandy optional too ;D

1.boil kettle.drag body over to get mug.
2.spoonful of jam in mug.spoonful of honey in mug
4.add hot water to mug til 3/4s full.Whiz spoon around until its all melty and no floaty lumpy things....looks wierd huh?
5.add orange juice ,til mug full and add lemon juice.taste it- wrinkle nose add more lemon.Maybe the little bit of brandy too.
6.close your eyes and sip half of it .The dregs half way are not so nice tasting.

My Granma always used to say if u can smell how bloody damn sweet it is it you aint got that darn cold no more!

*tucks you back in bed*

So I'm cheating and commenting the "comments turned off" post on the last one you made instead. You are not wasting anyone's time. You are poorly ick and people being unhelpful through to downright mean about that is not your fault, or anything to do with you. Can you get a new doctor, or request an appointment with a different doctor at the practice next time? It does not sound like you should be trying to work, whether what you have is still swine flu or not-might a less snitty doctor agree?. (that there is my attempt to offer practical help.) Thankyou for the dvds, by the way:) To restate my main point: you are not wasting anyone's time. *hugs* (I went to a cafe the other day and there was Leek and Potato Soup on the menu board. I now hear you singing it when i see that :D
