What the heck is wrong with me?

Question

Ok hey guys, I've been sick for the past 3 days at first it was just a sore throat but now my head hurts, I'm tired like to the point I just want to sleep all day long, my body hurts a bit, I have headaches coming and going and also sometimes my nose is clogged up then it isnt. I don't know if this helps but I've also been nauses at night for the past week but since friday night it went away... i dont have a fever either so what the heck is it?

I've had the flu before and it was much much worse then this, can a flu be not so bad?

Answer 1

It sounds like a rhinovirus, or a cold. Usually a cold stars with a sore throat, then the stuffy nose starts. The headache could be from the head congestion that occurs with a cold.
Make sure you're drinking enough fluids to keep everything thinned out. You can take some tylenol for your aches and pains. It's good to keep yourself warm and get plenty of rest. Just be sure to get up and walk around too, so your muscles won't get weak which will make you feel worse.
If your symptoms get worse, if you get a high fever go see your doc.

Answer 2

I agree with barberry. Probably a bad cold. In addition to what she advised, go to the local drugstore and find an OTC med that fits most of your symptoms. If you don't feel better in 3 days, or if you develop a fever at any time, call your doc and make an appointment.

Remember to stay hydrated through this process. Lots and lots of water!!
Get well soon.

Answer 3

I was sick for 3 months on and off

and recently i just got sick again..

Some of the same things have happened especially with the nose.

What my doctor said was, that there is this "disease" not killing or anything, but its on and off with different symptons

Its been going around.

Its going to go away, but you have to rest.
Also, drink lots of oj.
At night, put the vicks (the one you spread with ur finger or que tip) under your nose and on your chest/neck. This helps breathing and opens your nose.

SInce your body hurts too, you shouldnt do things that will strain your body.

Relax, read, watch tv, search something on the internet. stuff like that.

If it lasts longer than 5 days, id say either see a doctor or get something subscribed from him.

FEEL BETTER!!!! =[)

Answer 4

this definitely sounds like the flu or something. it doesn't sound like your common cold because you feel the need to sleep all day and have body aches. i'd get check out by a doctor.
