I don't think it can be Man Flu, it can't cross gender, that's a known fact.

It'll just be a common cold, lots of women get those.

Unlike Man Flu, the ability to help your partner in all ways possible, is not affected.

ok look
maybe you have just got a girly cold
i belive some of the symtoms are
bouts of moaning
some nagging
and a strange desire to spend money

no hang on a minute thats when your feeling ok
sorry what i ment was you may have
women flu
still not as bad as
MAN FLU
if you had that then you would not be able to be half sat, half plonked, groaning peeling veggies
you would be flat on you back unable to do anything
semi concious
although i have heard that a bowl of ice cream helps :-D

Ah, but it has to go down as one of the best ever Down the Lane Forum Posts.

I do so hope you get better soon Dave.

jreeve, try peeling some onions, it'll clear your nasal passages.

Hi Jreeve

Sorry to hear about your ear problem!

If its inner ear that will always make you feel dizzy and sick!

If is a bulid up of mucas, say from your sinuses through colds etc, try to inhale over hot water with a towel over your head, put a few drops of ALBUS oil in the water twice a day!

I have suffered with this for years, and take meds when i get a bad attack!
The inhailing clears the passage from you ear down to the base of your neck, also hold your nose and make your ears pop!

If your neck is tight due to stress, press your chin down as hard as you can on your thumbs, hold for 10 seconds and then release, it works do it a few times every hour!

Hope this helps and that you are feeling better soon!

PS not sure if you read this jreeve i posted it a few weeks back in your other thread( Not A good Day!)

poor Jen, you are a trooper. Where would all these men with man flu be if it wasnt for the ladies holding the fort even under the most difficult conditions , in pain and suffering from blockages and aching limbs. You deserve a long weekend at a spa , being pampered!!!! (f+ )c(

It's that knife you use on one of those brown bits of wood stored on top of a shelf between all those white things with doors on them.

Medical fact: man flu is the precursor to death it is soooo horrid and incapacitating.
Fact two: only men can contract man flu (the clue is in the name).
What you have got Jen is a common cold, the type of ailment that us chaps shrug off willy-nilly in order to continue our lives. We feel sorry for you and hope that you recover soon but it’s not man flu. xxx

You are really having really a bad time, I hope your finger isn't infected and that you start to feel better real soon. Good luck with the job.

(It's a good thing you are female, if you were a bloke you probably wouldn't have the strength to type by now and would have to get your wife to do it for you - as well as everything else :-D)
