Post Viral Infection After Travel Posted: 08-21-05 10:53am
Hi,
i recently got back from israel after
becoming ill there and being taken into
hospital with general weakness, headache
and upset stomach. Since then i've been
getting worse and now ache all over, with
bad rib and chest pains, weakness, light
headedness, nausea, stomach ache and
breathlessness on and off. Basically I
just feel crap and have no energy.
My doctor told me it might be 'some sort
of a virus' and that was it. But i've
been getting worse over the week and had
some really bad pains last night that I
was doubled over. So I went to a&e
today and they saw me. They did no tests,
but checked blood pressure, chest etc
which was fine. I've been told it's a
post viral infection that i've picked up
and that it'll be another couple of weeks
before I feel better. It's already been
two weeks so you can imagine i'm fed up
and just want to get better. Just
wondered if anyone else has had anything
like this? Thanks in advance. Lysette.
