Still Ill

Steven

I have a tongue of fire, am allergic to light, and my legs are as fragile as Twiglets; is everyone in the UK unwell in some way lately?

  • I'm not in the UK, but... 

    This last week I've had another cold, lots of streaming and weeping. Then in the last couple of days my eyes and hands started itching, and keep itching. But it could be a reaction to some bath oils, all of a sudden I a seem to be sensitive to them. 

    This is on top of flu, which I got in the February. Only managed to get one day off work. My apetite went I've already lost a lot of weight, and this week didn't want to eat much more than soup again. At the end of April I see a chest specialist because the GP suspects uncontrolled asthma, the head at the school where I've been working was getting onto me to do something about that too. I'm not too keen on going on steroids though, don't want a bloated face, body, etc. The last time I got steroids they had horrific side effects to the gut, and it wasn't fun to snort it up like cocaine anyway.
