I started with a very bunged up nose, fever, achy knees, feeling weak and a headache a week ago. I thought I had sinusitis as I am prone to it at times, saw GP and he said it was swine flu as my symptoms were more like flu.
I have had a blocked nose a week now, not as blocked as it was and I feel over all the other symptoms. When I blow my nose is clear, not coloured. I do a sinus rinse twice a day which helps me blow out alot of rubbish, which is mainly clear with the odd small amount of yellow/green. So hopefully I haven't and am not going to develop sinusitis, I do sometimes with a cold, but how long is a cold supposed to last for?
I am feeling very tired, I am getting only a couple of hours sleep a night because I have 3 ill children now with flu symptoms:blush:
