I am Under the Weather Today

Hi all, I haven't been around much today, I woke up just not feeling right. I ended up laying on the sofa with a blanket and had to put socks and slippers on and a sweater, I was so cold. I took a couple of ibuprofen and about an hour and a half later I was back to being warm.
I took off my sweater and actually got up and started to prepare something for dinner. I have no idea what exactly was wrong with me but I felt exhausted and just not like myself, slightly headachy.
I did get a mouthful of pool water yesterday and I wonder if it had some germs in it, I also have been going to the grocery store and we all know how many germs are floating around there. I did wash my hands, computer and phone yesterday just in case but I may have been too late.
At any rate, I am feeling much better but I am not going to exercise tonight, we have our first class tomorrow and I want to make sure I am feeling up to it.
I hope everyone else is have a better day.

Some feel the weather (pressure from the storms, etc.) makes them feel off. Hope you are feeling better now.

So glad to hear you are feeling better. The kids just got over strep throat. I was feeling bad for a few days but snapped out of it. Not any fun feeling sick.

@BelleStarr It's depressing, some days I think that I am well and it's over, until I start to cough again. I am taking medications now, I want to get rid of this flu.

I hope you feel better soon so you can be a super woman at your exercise classes!
I have been feeling lethargic lately, and really tired all the time. I think I am not getting enough sleep, and it's finally starting to catch up with me.

@BelleStarr I've come down with a full-blown case of the flu. I was scheduled to help my neighbor move yesterday, and as bad as I felt, I kept my commitment. But when I got home at noon, I laid down and slept all through the rest of the day, the night, and most of this morning. About 20 hours total I estimate. And I feel much better today, although still weak, achy and congested.

@BelleStarr That's wonderful. I'll be back in the pool on Monday. My medication should be working as it should by then.

I almost got the flu or something a few times and took extra Vita C and even some Oregano oil and got rid of it eventually- so am just waiting to get my yearly flu at one point. Hope you are better completely- you should tell by tomorrow!

@BelleStarr Sometimes I get days where I feel I am coming down and then an Ibuprofen or an aspirin and a few Vitamin C's later - it starts to go away- weird!

That is odd because I felt exactly the same this morning. I got up, had breakfast looked at the ironing and went back to bed. I got warmed up again (|the weather is cold here) but I did not get back to sleep so after 15 minutes I got up and dressed and sat on my Lazyboy chair and drank coffee. It helped. I have not done anything today except cook dinner and put washing in the machine. Sometimes our bodies say 'enough' and we are wise to take notice.

It seems it was that kind of day for several other people. I hope you are feeling as good as I do today, I am back to normal.

Yes it was a very yucky day, I hate feeling off like that. It was funny in the evening all of a sudden I had to take off my sweater and throw off the afghan I had gotten warm. I am fine today at any rate. Thanks.

Good that whatever bug that may have been that it was short lived. I had the flu before Christmas, maybe it was even as far back as November, I don't recall. But, it was the shortest 24hr flu that I ever had which was nice.

I am not exactly sure what was wrong, it may have been something I ate. I am fine today at any rate.
