About 2 and a half weeks ago I came down with bad flu. I had a bad fever, achy, chills, congestion and a really sore throat. After about a week I felt like I was gettting better and made the mistake of a late night out having drinks for a friends birthday. I woke up the next morning and didn't feel good at all. Unfortunately I had to go into work and it was awful. I felt severly light headed and was sweating profusely. Not fun! The past 6 days since then I've been home resting but feel completely out of sorts and dizzy and my vision is not right. It feels like everything is kind of swaying in front of me and I can't focus visually or mentaly. The fever has subsided but I still have a stuffy nose and a tickly in my throat which is making me cough.
I went to the doctor again and he's not sure what could be causing the dizziness. He checked out my ears and everything looked ok. My blood pressure was slightly elevated 130/102.
Its really bothering me because I have never had this dizzy feeling before and I can't understand why it isn't getting an better after a week? I seem to be at a stand still and the cough and dizziness isn't improving.
At some points during the day I feel like its on the mend but then it comes back again and rears its ugly head again.
I just want to get better! Anyone else experience this before??
