Not sure where you are, but there have been two virus' going about. One is the flu with sickness and the other is throat and ear ache (this was the one I got at the new year) One of my staff also had it. Can last for a week or two. Hope this helps

I have had a headache on and off over the last few days. At this time of year, there are always strange types of cold and flu like illnesses. The constant up and down with the weather doesn't help. Take vitamins, keep up vitamin C, fluids in general, eat regular meals, keep warm and take yourself to bed - sleep is nature's best way to heal.

You mostly have strep throat, there are many home remedies to help.
First make warm tea and put some honey in it.
Second take pain relief medication and Mucus X.
After a day or two and it hasn't gone away see a doctor.

It could be a sinus infection or an ear infection. If you're off balance or feel dizzy, then it's probably ear. If not, then it's sinus. Either one should be treated with an antibiotic and a decongestant. Otherwise, it will worsen and you could get severe chest congestion.
And, yes, these things go around often, especially during the cooler months.

Headache is a pain in the head, scalp or neck. Headaches can be
caused by minor problems like eyestrain, lack of coffee or more
serious reasons like head injury, brain tumors, encephalitis and
meningitis. Taking painkillers continuously can have harmful side
effects, so it is better to modify your lifestyle. More information

I just got over pnemonia; it started out the same way. If your lungs start going crazy,(shortnes of breath, tireing EASILY) GO to the Dr. and ask for Avelox this anti-biotic made me feel better within 2 days. If you wait like I did, you'll be on you back for 2 weeks. Avelox (Bayer) expensive so ask for samples. Also, Jim Beam works just as well lol! Good luck. I hate it when people get sick

That's a bit freaky 'cos I don't remember snogging you. But I woke up yesterday with EXACTLY the same symptoms. I'm never, ever ill but I felt really rough all day. Slightly better today but still not quite right.
I'm serious - where do you live?

Yes, ive had similar and when I saw my doctor she said they were sympotms of a flu virus thats making its way round!
The best way to recover is to rest, drink plenty of fludids, take pain killers and gargle with salt water to help ease your throat.
Feel better!
